Fiesta Friday #151

Several times a day, I would say to myself…


Christmas is a few days away! DO SOMETHING!!

I think it’s working. This is recently spotted at la casa de Angie…

Christmas is finally happening around here!

??Merry Christmas, everyone, from my home to yours!!??

And because it’s Christmas, I don’t want anybody to worry about anything. We all need a break from cohosting, selecting features, and all of that; we’re busy enough! Let’s just relax and enjoy ourselves and our families.

Starting next week, though, I would need cohosts again, hehe…so let me know if any of you are up for it.

We’ll also talk more about the Fiesta Friday Challenge. I’ve got some very good suggestions from many of you, and will try to finalize the plan and unveil it as soon as the holiday busyness is over. Stay tuned!

Now, Features!

Lemon Thyme Mini Christmas Cakes from Anjana @ Happy and Harried

“Much as I personally do quite like Christmas cake (at least the way my mum makes it), I can see why others don’t. The flavors of these mini cakes are so very much ones I love and especially in the lovely photos, they do indeed make a bright, fresh antidote to your regular seasonal fair.”– Caroline

White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies from Lily @ Little Sweet Baker

“Do you know a better combination than a warm cup of tea with some nice biscuits? If you think like me, this is a perfect match and this recipe is for you. These look delicious. Let’s prepare them.”– Tânia

Sweet Nut Holiday Bread Wreath from Hostess at Heart

“I know one of Julie’s wreath breads was featured not too long ago, but really they are too pretty not to admire again. I love the sound of the flavors in this one too.” — Caroline

Tofu Mushroom Matar from Swati @ Let’s Cook Healthy Tonight!

“Have you ever thought about combining mushroom, tofu, green peas and tomatoes in the same vegetarian recipe? Swati did and I quite like the idea. Her dish just looks so yummy and healthy that I would like to try it.”– Tânia

Hot Chocolate Marble Pound Cake from Jess @ Cooking is my sport

“Jessica’s Hot Chocolate Marble Pound Cake looks so mouth-watering that I could not resist it and I’ve already added it to my to-do list in the kitchen. I’m looking forward to preparing it.”– Tânia

  1. Wow, Chez Angie is definitely ready for the festivities! It all looks great, the features are amazing – I can’t wait to for it all to start. And that’s just the Fiesta Friday Challenge …
    Feel free to plan me in for co-hosting and general salivating!
    Have a lovely Christmas,
    Ginger x

    • I’m as ready as I can be. I have to admit it used to be more exciting when I was younger or when the kids were younger ? I didn’t plan to do much at first, but I kept adding more stuff to the table!! Oh well…its Christmas ? And you’re in for next week! Merry Christmas, Ginger ?

  2. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of my FF friends! I enjoy seeing what each week brings. Angie, I will be available to co-host in January if needed . Also I am looking for a few guest bloggers on Dadwhats4dinner in late February and early March if anyone is interested. Happy FF!!

  3. Angie, the photo looks very festive! I can see you got everything covered. 😀 Congrats to all featured this week.

    I am just a message away if you need my help in co-hosting, Angie. Happy holidays to you and your lovely family. x

  6. Hi Angie! Great featured recipes from last week! I am rushing to finish my last recipe before Christmas, I’ll link it up when it’s ready. Having East European roots can sometimes be a curse, I tell you, there is SO much cooking to be done for Christmas Eve, never mind Christmas day, thank goodness my husband will take care of most of Christmas day cooking. Looking forward to the Friday Fiesta Challenge though, I’ll be rested by then:)

    • No worries, Monika! I think we’re ALL busy! I really admire those bloggers who can churn out post after beautiful post. I do mostly weekly FF posts and sometimes I can’t barely cope, lol. Hey, at least your husband helps, mine is hopeless in the kitchen. One of these days, I’ll make a list and publish all the stupid things he does ? Have a very Merry Christmas, Monika! Btw, I don’t think you’ve cohosted, wanna give it a try?

  7. Hi Angie! I can’t believe I’ve been missing out on the fiesta for almost two months!?
    Your decor looks so festive! I finally got my tree up yesterday… and the only reason I got off my procrastinating butt and put up the tree is because I’m in charge of Christmas dinner this year?
    Anyway, very glad to be back at the fiesta❤️

    • Yeah, where you been, girl?! Ok, ok, I understand things can get hectic at times. Heck, life IS hectic! But I’m so happy to see you back. And how exciting to be in charge of the important dinner…uhm…maybe ? Merry Christmas, Ai! Can’t wait to see what you’ll be cooking ??

    • Do you usually get it from WordPress Jetpack? Or were you looking for an email directly from Fiesta Friday? Also, can you check your subscription setting? Make sure you haven’t accidentally opted out of email subscription. It happened to me before. Thanks for telling me, and pls keep telling me until I get it figured out ? Merry Christmas to you & family!!! ????

  10. Thanks a lot for the feature Angie! Merry Christmas to you and your family. Your photo looks so beautiful , so perfect. Enjoy the time .

  14. Merry Christmas to you and the family, Angie. Glad to see you’ve got there festivity-wise. I’m sure it will all come together (that’s what I am hoping myself, I have a bit to do tomorrow!)

    • I finally finished all the wrapping, just in time! Now moving on to food. I offered to take everyone out to a nice restaurant but they balked. Those spoiled brats! ?? Merry Christmas, Caroline! ?

    • Same to you, Justine! I hope you had a jolly Christmas! And let’s have a smashing New Year!! And absolutely about being late. Always better than never ??
