Hi there, Fiesta Friends! How are y’all doing?
I’ve been so busy these past couple of weeks, mainly because the husband is SO BUSY. My busyness correlates directly to his busyness.
And when I say he’s BUSY, I mean he’s been working around the clock, having Webex meetings with people from different time zones, burning way past the midnight oil, going to bed at 3 am or later, and waking up at 7 am, then start all over again the next day! That kind of busy.
Anyway, I try my best to not disturb him but I tend to be too chatty around him. So he’s locked me out of our home office! Where I keep my iMac. Seriously, he has. I’ve been deprived of my iMac so that’s why I haven’t been blogging all that much.
Okay, that’s probably a backhanded way of blaming the husband for my lack of blogging productivity, but it’s all true! I rely on my iMac to edit photos, create Pinterest-worthy pins, etc.
Luckily, I was able to sneak in and uploaded this photo before he chased me out.
That’s the beginning of the killer quesadillas I mentioned last week. I will share the recipe soon, promise. As soon as I can get to the iMac.
There isn’t a lack of recipes here, however. Just scroll down and you’ll see.
Outstanding Recipes from Last Week’s Fiesta
“I love a simple, but perfectly roasted chicken like this. And I love that Liz shared 2 brining methods which I am so excited to try.” — Jhuls
“The buttermilk brining method described in this post is brilliant! Borderline genius, I’ll say. Okay, full-blown genius!” — Angie
“Pretty, pretty donuts! And they’re baked, too. Which means they’re healthier. Which means you can eat more!” — Angie
“I have such a hankering for big, thick, luscious cookies. Can cookies be luscious?! Of course! Just look at those cookies.” — Angie
“This is a must-try! I love orange chicken, but haven’t tried adding chipotle to it. Sounds yum!” — Jhuls

Thanks so much for featuring my cookie recipe. I agree with Angie, YES, those cookes are “luscious”. 🙂

You’re welcome. Your luscious cookies drove me to the store! To buy cookies, of course 😀

Is it wrong that I got the giggles when you said you’d been locked out of the home office! I have this problem but with my son, I swear he just needs a little seat next to me so he can sit and chat constantly (preferably while I wear headphones). I think I’d miss it if he stopped haha. Thank you for hosting such a drool-worthy round up and have a super weekend.
Angie says
That’s the appropriate reaction, Rebecca 😀 You should have seen my dog’s face when the husband did the same thing to her. She was obviously offended. She went back to her couch in the living room, and sat facing the wall. Poor thing…
Estelle Forrest says
Thanks so much for including my Chicken recipe this week! I hope everyone enjoys it as much as we did and have a wonderful weekend!

It looks delish! Thanks for sharing, Estelle!

Thank you so much Angie for featuring me this week. And I am happy to be your cohost. My own blogging has been erratic lately as well. I don’t understand how we can be so busy when we are still on a limited lockdown here in California. I just heard that our one movie theater may open in the middle of next month, and the gym in June. Thankfully my husband has his own office, I share mine with our spare bedroom. There are several reasons we cannot share, including the fact that he is incredibly messy and I have tendencies towards the opposite. So, I have not excuses.
Angie says
I think once the weather warms up, we have other things to distract us. I find it hard to sit in front of a computer right now. When I come home from work, all I want to do is go outside and visit my plants. I enjoy watching things grow, and I actually find weeding to be relaxing 😀

Thanks for the invitation, Dee!

Kate - Gluten Free Alchemist says
Orange Chipotle Chicken sounds amazing!
I hope you’ve had a good weekend and that you get ‘unlocked’ from the office soon xxx
Angie says
Lol, I’ve forced my way in a couple of times but couldn’t stay for long. Obviously, I need my own office! ?
