Phew, feels good to be finally rid of a draft. I was supposed to feed this blog with food posts and pictures once in a while, and I finally did it.
I don’t know why it always takes me so long to edit all my drafted posts. Probably because partly I suffer from a healthy amount of laziness (ahem!), but mostly because I suffer from an unhealthy amount of OCD and perfectionism (dun dun dun dun!).
Of course it doesn’t help that our neighborhood recently suffered a power outage, twice! In this unbearable heat (yikes!).
See, I suffer so much! So you can understand how hard it is for me to produce a post.
Anyway, I’m glad I got the samosa post out. Now I’m trying to work on my mojito post. Here’s a sneak peek.
From last week’s fiesta
“I made this! It is now a family favorite! It was dark by the time I finished cooking but I did take a couple of pictures. I’ll try to post it later as visual evidence.” — Angie
“A lovely vegetarian savory tart, this is a great recipe to place in my asparagus repertoire – one of my favorite veggies!” — Diann
“Impressive construction, and I really like the versatility of this grill-time idea! But, bring a big appetite, or share with a friend!” — Diann
“Both very refreshing and filling, to satisfy all one’s needs for summer berry season!” — Diann

A power outage in this heat!? Not cool (haha no pun intended)! I hope the weekend is a bit more bearable!
I know, right?! Haha, love your witty pun ? It happened the first time at night after a storm and it wasn’t so bad, but when it happened again the next day we took off and ended up at Sam’s Club and Smashburger and finally the mall ?
I made it this week! Fabulous party – as usual. Found some posts and ads that were really interesting – Have a fabulous weekend.
I’m so glad, Helen! Interesting ads?! Well now I’m curious ?
HI Angie,
Totally hear you on the heat — we lost power a few times as well. We lose it so seldom that it’s such a shocker when we do! So very lucky! Thanks for a great Fiesta Friday!
This was only the second time it happened to us after 18 years in this area, but it felt like they took forever to get it restored. Luckily for us, when we checked our freezers everything was still frozen! Thanks for participating in the fiesta!
OMGosh Angie, no power! We had no internet for a couple of days and I thought that was bad – at least you took advantage of the situation though! (what did you buy?) Loving the preview of your Mojito, and Jess’s featured summer berry shortcake looks divine! I’m looking forward to see what delicious delights everyone is sharing this week. Have a great weekend (England are in the quarter finals of the World Cup on Saturday)!
Congratulations!! I saw the last minutes of that game, very exciting! Oh, as usual I bought more junks with the excuse of using them for the blog and then never even taking them out of the bags! And always, always every time I’m at the mall I have to go to the candy store. We’re addicted to the rainbow striped sour candy.
Oh, forgot to say thank you for cohosting!! ??
You’re welcome… Anytime ?
The mojitos look great, can’t wait to see the recipe!
I hate losing power… fortunately right now it just seems to be Internet that goes… lost that for about an hour this morning during a rainstorm. (BUT, we need the rain!)
At least you had places to go to cool off!
Yes, the mojitos! Definitely needed for this weather. I hope to make them again this weekend since there’s still mint in the garden. The rain is so welcomed here, too! Hope it’ll get rid of the heat!
Yay! A new food post – that’s amazing! I will check tomorrow the samosa recipe. For now, it’s time to sleep. Haha! Thanks for the Fiesta, Angie. Enjoy your weekend. x
Nighty night, Jhuls! Don’t let the bedbugs bite! ??
Hello!!!!! It’s been too long ????
Totally, Elaine!! Don’t let that happen again! Just kidding, it’s probably my fault for not being very active. Great to see you here!
It’s like you picked the perfect summer menu! I’d love to start out with a cocktail and that asparagus tart, then have Jaxx’s Sriracha Roll (since obs, I already had my burgers – thanks for featuring them!) then finish up with Jess’ shortcakes! I just have to think of a side!!
Happy FF!! I think I finally have my internet problems worked out so I’ll be visiting about again!!
Didn’t you have that fabulous shaved Brussels sprouts side dish? Or was it shaved asparagus? You have so many nice ones I can’t remember them all! You should really put them all together in a book! I’ll buy it ?
Actually, I have both, lol!! But I always have to have something new to me!!! And thanks! I have one sale, can I get a thousand, haha!! Hope you have a great weekend, Angie!
You’ll make at least a couple of hundreds of sale from the FF crowd, hundreds more from your followers, then the rest family and friends will take care. There, you’ve got your thousand sales right there ?
Thank you so much for hosting. I brought our favourite cake and I hope you like it. Have a great weekend.
Welcome to Fiesta Friday, Mareliz! Thanks for bringing your favorite cake ?
I understand, lol! Everything looks amazing this week! 😀 Have a great week and I am so glad to be co-hosting again!
