If you’ve been following the news, you know this has been a tough week. Downright depressing.
I find myself busier in the kitchen at times like this.
Denial much?
From Mayo Clinic: Denial is a coping mechanism that gives you time to adjust to distressing situations.
Some time in the near future, when I can coherently form my thoughts into words, I will write the recipes for these.
For now, I have a more pressing issue. One I can NOT deny. I’ve run out of cohosts.
I suppose I can man the fiesta by myself for a little while, but that is so not fun! So please come forward. I don’t have to tell you, do I, that being a cohost comes with, among other things, the benefit of getting important linkbacks, which will boost your SEO ranking.
Ask any of the former cohosts if you don’t believe me. Or better yet, be a cohost and find out for yourself. Go ahead, leave me a message. I know you’ve always wanted to be a cohost.
From last week’s Fiesta
“Kate’s gluten free wholemeal bread just blew me away! It looks beyond gorgeous. I am more of a ‘white bread’ girl, but this bread might change my mind. Just fabulous!” — Jhuls
“I agree, Jhuls. That bread is just fabulous. I’m always partial to brown bread, so I’m the “brown bread” girl” ? — Angie
“It looks very tasty.” — Rita
“I agree, Rita. It does look very tasty. You can’t go wrong with poblanos and cream.” — Angie
“I know mint goes well in a pulav, and it looks very [authentic].” — Rita
“This one ticks all the boxes for me, so it goes without saying that it’s a Must-Make!” — Angie

Now, let’s party! Join Fiesta Friday #288 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 co-hosts this week are Antonia @ Zoale.com and myself aka Angie @ Fiesta Friday.
If you’re new to Fiesta Friday, please read the guidelines.
If you’re interested in becoming a co-host, please leave me a message.
Thanks for hosting a great party – I’m excited I actually made it this week!
Yay to you! I’m excited, too ?
Happy FF Everyone! Thank you for the feature on my Chicken Artichoke dish! And yes, Angie is right about the SEO it helps to have people link in to you.
But also, it’s a fun way to get around and get to know other bloggers – I always mean to visit, but when I cohost, I kind of “have” to and procrastination isn’t an option. And FF is different than most link parties…at least it feels so to me. It’s a community!

Listen to the wise sage Mollie, people. She knows what she’s talking about. She knows a lot of things! ? I’ll be making that artichoke chicken this weekend ?
I was thrilled to see my Poblano Strips with Cream featured, thank you so much Jhuls, Rita and Angie!
This week I am sharing two recipes for “guisados” (Mexican stews).
Thank you so much for hosting these great parties, have a great week!
You’re welcome, Irene. I love poblano peppers, and cream ?
You are most welcome, Irene. Maybe we can co-host together next time.? Happy Fiesta Friday to you!
Maybe it’s just me but every week I see the new recipes but I can’t find any links to them. There are links to last week’s, but not this week’s. What am I doing wrong?
If you click on the thumbnail photos, it’ll bring you directly to the posts/recipes. On the featured posts, just click on the captions under the photos.
Thank you.
Thank you for hosting, Angie and Antonia. These are some delicious features!? And you got busier in the kitchen, indeed. I wish you have a wonderful weekend!
Thanks, Jhuls. You, too, have a great weekend! ?
I always look forward to co hosting! It’s a great way to find delicious dishes and get to know some great bloggers! I hope you have lots of folks come forward! Happy Fiesta Friday and weekend, Angie!
Thanks for cohosting with me, Antonia ? I’m so glad I can count on you for support and help. I really appreciate it. You’re a great blogger friend! ?
I’ll volunteer for Aug 30th as a co-host. Right now my life has been too busy to pay much attention to things, alas! But in good news, I *THINK* I’ve sold my old home! I don’t actually count it until the place physically closes…
Thanks, Diann!! I will mark my calendar right now. I hope we can find you a cohost.
Well, that’s GREAT news! So now you can fully focus on the homestead. I foresee many exciting things in your future ?
Thank you for hosting! Your parties are always full of such inspiring ideas and recipes. This week I’m bringing my Balsamic & Brussels Sprouts Chicken Saute, Caramel Apple Pie Bombs, Seafood Salad and Parmesan Cheese Rolls to the party.
Ooh… Caramel Apple Pie Bombs sound fantastic! Can’t wait to see! Thanks, Tamy.
Thanks so much for hosting!
My pleasure, Dee ?
Happy FF to all of you! Happy to be back after a short holiday break!
Thank you for hosting this wonderful party!
I wish you a wonderful weekend!
Hugs, Ela
No problem, happy to host always ?
hi Angie
It was terrible news and words will never be enough. Cooking can be therapeutic as well as nourishing.
Thank you for hosting everyone, nr 288 is impressive!
Great features, the gluten free bread looks so delicious 🙂
take care x
I’m with you, Petra. Cooking is my way to escape, and eating, too, of course ? That bread looks fantastic!
Thank you so much for featuring my Pudina (mint) Pulav!
My pleasure! 🙂
