Fiesta Friday #209

Is it February already?! Yikes!

It always sneaks up on you that February, year in year out, again and again. Just like Groundhog Day.


As a matter of fact, it does feel like Groundhog Day today… because it is!

Unfortunately, Punxsutawney Phil didn’t give us a good prediction. Apparently, he saw his shadow, which means six more weeks of winter. Oh, Phil! How disappointing!

I was hoping for a different prediction to start this weekend on a good note. Because… If you’re a resident of this area where I am, you know there’s a HUGE event coming up. On Sunday, the Eagles will win their first Lombardi Trophy!

I just have to stay positive, I have to! Truth be told, though, I’m very nervous. Quick guys, all of you, knock on wood, cross your fingers, throw salt over your shoulder, run outside turn around three times and spit!

Aaaand…spray everything GREEN!! That should cover everything. Fly, Eagles, Fly!!

Here are some fabulous posts from last week’s fiesta:

Boozy Coconut Banana Cake from All that’s Jas

Old-Fashioned Oatmeal Cookies from Little Sweet Baker

Melting Moments Cookies from Cooking Is My Sport

30 minute (Total Time) Instant Pot Roast Medium Rare from The Frugal Hausfrau

***

Now, let’s party! Join Fiesta Friday #209 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 Laurena @ Life Diet Health

I’m running out of cohosts! Seriously, guys, please volunteer!

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

    We’re very much looking forward to Sunday in my house too! We live in the UK but my husband has loved NFL for years. Our tradition for the last 7 years has been to each pick a team and wear their jersey’s. I say each pick a team, but he picks one team and I have the other! He’s a massive Packer’s fan and his second team are the Patriots so the Eagles were obviously going to my team this year. Very much looking forward to being an honorary Eagles fan and cheering them on! x

      Oh yay!! Great to have a fellow Eagles fan on the other side of the pond. I have to say most people around here are not so fond of the Patriots. They’re known to be cheaters. Remember deflategate? Anyway, fly eagles fly!! ?

    Hello Angie
    Friday again, and February! I just suggested a crazy stay up night watching the game with lots of snacks but am not sure we will make it! I sort of have the same plan every year and always fall asleep. Promise to have a look as soon as I wake up!
    Happy FF and have a great time on Sunday 🙂

      I guess it’ll broadcast very late over there. By the time it’s halftime, it’ll be morning! We’ll have lots of food, that’s the husband’s request. I’ll be ordering wings and make some easy snacks (most likely nachos). Can hardly wait to see Justin Timberlake at halftime!!

    Oh, wow, and good morning, everyone! Thanks for featuring my 30 minute roast! I think this might be the first time an Instant Pot recipe has been featured! I’m psyched! And good luck, tomorrow, Angie! You guys trounced our Vikings two weeks ago, so I know your team is great!! I can’t even imagine how that post game talk went!

      Too bad Carson Wentz is out, but we’ve been doing great even without him. But he’s there, you know, huddling with his buddies giving them tips. He’s the new Tom Brady, you know. We need to win! All the kids are expecting a parade, which means a day off!! Me, too!! ?? Your roast beef looks perfect!

    Have to say I don’t follow football at all, and I find sportscaster voices annoying, so I don’t participate. However, since the Patriots are known to cheat, I have a hope that they lose – which is not a popular viewpoint here in Massachusetts.

      February 2, 2018 at 10:21 am

      Lol, thanks for that! I’m still nervous though. I hope they don’t do anything funny, like spying/lip reading, which sometimes they do, too. I can take a loss, as long as the game is fair ?

      Lol, I t’s probably strange for you to see us so hyped up about a game, but if the Eagles do win on Sunday (and they must!) it’ll be their first Super Bowl win. That’s why it’s so exciting! There are pep rallies everywhere, our school had one and everywhere you go it’s the talk of the town. ?? Thanks for cohosting, Laurena! ??

    BTW, I volunteer to co host Feb 23. I will again have an operable computer sometime this weekend, it took about 30 minutes to ready today’s post (photos and such) for uploading earlier via Kindle, fortunately most of the post was already good to go about 10 days ago, when the computer died. (No such luck for any future blog posts…)
