Thank goodness for snow days!
Now I can actually find time to post this! I wasn’t sure at first… So much to do, so many things to unpack and put away, so little time to rest, etc.
Anyhow… Yesterday’s snow day was a blessing. And today’s, too. They’ve given me a chance to finally sit down and check on the blog.
And to check on you, most importantly! I wish you all a smashing New Year filled with happiness, prosperity, and above all, peace.

Happy New Year Angie!
Happy New Year to you, too, Monika!
Happy New Year, and Yes, I can co-host next week! Assuming I don’t turn into an icicle during our current obnoxious weather. (I like winter. I like my season in moderation, though.)
Great! And Happy New Year! The weather is very obnoxious indeed! When I start saying indeed, you know I’m serious, lol.
Hello Angie!
Happy New Year to you! I’m happy to be back after a short holidays break! Thank you for hosting this Fiesta in the New year!
See you next week!
Emmi
Thanks, Emmi, and Happy New Year to you, too! Hopefully you’re well-rested after the break and ready for the new year. Maybe start something new this year, like hosting the fiesta??
Well, dear Angie! It sounds to be a great idea! Thank you for this invitation and I’ll think about it! 😉
??
Have you been busy shovelling snow? Man, mother nature has gone bonkers over there! Hope you are staying warm!
The mango cake is one to due for and Jas’ firecracker filo is just too awesome!!
Happy new year, Angie!
Not me! That’s the husband’s job! The wind has something else in mind, though. It rearranges the snow as it sees fit. I’m inside a blanket teepee with a portable heater underneath, so I’m toasty, hehe… The firecrackers are the best thing ever, right?!
Hahhahaha! That’s a new word I learnt – blanket tippee! How original! 🙂 Oh those firecraxkers..my best friends… :/ grrrr…
Fancy meeting you here! Thanks for the shout out, Ann! Mwah!
LOL. I’m a (somewhat) regular guest on Angies/ But..but but…! Angie NEVER once featured my submission. *waaaaiiiiiil* :'(
hehehehehheeh!
Apparently you haven’t seen the latest fiesta. There’s a surprise for you, Ann!
Apaprently, I haven’t. I just saw!!!! Hahahhahahha! What a wonderful surprise.

Happy New Year Angie! 😀 I’m trying 😛 to start as I intend to go on, meaning God willing I’ll visit more Fiestas than last year! 😀 Hope you all had a fabulous festive season and (despite the snow) you’re getting back into a routine. xxx
You’d better, lol ? Anyway, I’m glad visiting more fiestas is part of your New Year’s resolutions. I intend to do the same. Visit my own fiestas more ? Happy New Year, Laurena! ?
Happy New Year Angie..Happy that my Cake got featured
Same to you, Lathi! It was a pleasure to feature your cake, it’s so pretty and healthy!
Happy New Year’s Everyone! I’m so happy to be co-hosting, and bonus – cohosting with Petra! I love her blog! Now new rules – anyone who posts how I can lose all my holiday pounds in a week wins, lol!! And along that note, I’m wishing good health and happiness to everyone for the New Year. And world peace.
Mollie
Let me add to the new rules – not only it must be done in a week, but without exercising and dieting. And lots and lots of tips on how to cheat!?? Thanks for cohosting, Mollie! Happy New Year, and yes, world peace!✌️✌️
