Fiesta Friday #175

Just about one more week, people, until school is out!

I have to keep telling myself to stay strong everyday. I find it hard to get up in the morning to go to work. The last days are the longest!


But once Summer break starts, I’ll be the happiest and freest person in the world.

But then I’ll have two hungry kids at home with me all the time. No more school lunches. I will have to actually feed them once in a while.

But that might be good for me. That’ll give me the opportunity to try your excellent recipes. Lord knows I’ve only saved a bajilion of them.

I just can’t help it. My Fiesta Friday friends are some of the best recipe makers out there!

Just look at these recipes I’ve saved from last week’s fiesta:

Chicken Tinga from Mollie @ The Frugal Hausfrau

Chinese Braised Beef from Jess @ Cooking Is My Sport

Peanut Butter Crunch Brownies from Julianna @ Foodie On Board

These are the kinds of food that I know my family will love, but if you’re Jhuls, though, you’d probably want to try this:

Arroz Caldo from Jasmine @ The Richmond Avenue

“I love anyone who makes Filipino foods and this Arroz Caldo from Jasmine is two thumbs up from me. I love that she didn’t make anything new to the dish and kept it as simple as the classic one. So delicious!” — Jhuls

***

Now, let’s party! Join Fiesta Friday #175 by adding your link. Don’t forget to link your post to FiestaFriday.net and the co-hosts’ blogs, so we can feature you. Your cohosts this week are Monika @ Everyday Healthy Recipes and Suzanne @ A Pug in the Kitchen

If you’re new to Fiesta Friday, please read the guidelines.

    My kids have another month and a half of school here in the UK, which is easier on the parents (especially if they have full time jobs and not much holiday time) but not so great for the kids. Looking forward to my co-hosting duties this week:)

      Is it a year-round school system? Some schools in California do that, too. I wouldn’t like that, though. I look forward to a long Summer break every year! Thanks for cohosting! Remember, both weeks! ??

        They get 5-6 weeks off in the summer and a week, sometimes 2, off every 6 weeks or so throughout the year. Not necessarily at the same time. So if you’ve got children in different schools it can be difficult.

        I did the same – I had multiple files separated into categories. I got crazy filing them, so I ended up with pinning and bookmarking. ? Thanks, Angie. Glad to help?

    i am always amazed how early your summer break starts! But then I think you return to school earlier than us don’t you?
    Like Monika said, we have six more weeks to go here…

      We used to return in September, but last year we went back in August. New superintendent, new rules and regulations. But the state mandates that public schools must have 187 school days.

        I think it’s a similar amount here, just spread out differently..

          June 9, 2017 at 3:24 pm

          Actually 180 days for students and 187 for teachers/staff. Probably pretty standard for most places.

    Oh Angie, I can relate, I also teach 7th graders at Indian Sunday school, which has kept me crazy busy….or extra crazy 🙂
    I agree about Fiesta Friday’s fabulous recipes. I want to make so many of them too.

        I know exactly what you mean….and by the end of the year they are no longer scared of their teacher 🙂
        My problem is that i can yell at my kids plenty….but not other people’s kids and they seem to know that 🙂 It is rewarding working with them though.

    Hey Angie, I linked my recipe. I hope I did it right, this is a first for me. If not, please let me know. When exactly does your Friday start? As I am in Germany, I was unsure when I would be able to add my link. Happy to know when we can start linking and I am so excited to meet other food bloggers!

      I think you did everything right. Yay, I’m so glad you made it! The fiesta usually starts at 8:00 am EST. I think that’s 2 pm in Germany.
      Now it’s time to mix and mingle! Happy Fiesta Friday! ?

      That was my problem when my kids were younger. But now they pretty much take care of themselves. Well, not really…I still have to feed them and sometimes pick up after them!! When will they actually grow up? ?
