Tomorrow is our Independence Day and a holiday over here :) Which means a long weekend for us! I am rushing between getting all those last minute things done and stuffing my red duffel bag with everything I'll need for the weekend. I'm headed for some much craved r&r and when I get back I'll share some photos! It's a relatively new place I learned of from, far though she may be, my cousin who lives in Barcelona. I know, I need someone a continent away to point me to places in my own stomping ground! Tsk. Well, whatever the case, C and I are very excited and looking forward to just lazing around. Before I go though, I thought I'd share with you a bit of news...I have another recipe feature in this month's issue of Yummy magazine! :) Now, although I adore slow cooking and craftily making things from scratch, I do know that the reality for many of us has little time for spending hours (or days!) in the kitchen. So for this issue, I've put together some quick-as-can-be recipes for all us busy girls and boys!
To give you a sneak peek: one of the recipes I've included is my "quick Fabada". When I make fabada (a Spanish bean stew...what is it with me and bean stews?) from scratch, it take me two days. Yes, two days! That's because I make the ham stock from scratch the day before, and then the actual fabada cooking takes a good part of the next day! But when I'm not cooking for guests, and it's just C and I (or my brother and I), and we are craving for a bowl of fabada, I whip up this "cheat's" version and we have on the table in under 30 minutes :)
The other recipes are even quicker! If you'd like to see them, pick up a copy of Yummy this June :)
I'm off! Happy weekend and to all the Filipinos out there....Happy Independence Day tomorrow!!!

Happy Independence day Joey! I'm looking forward to your feature! :)
Have a fabulous weekend! And congratulations too on the featured recipe in Yummy. Don't think I can find that over here, but it sounds like a great recipe. I think I would also go for the quick version rather then the one that takes two days though..:)
That's terrific, Joey! Can't wait to see your feature!
Happy independence day and congrats on the feature.
Congratulations on the feature recipe! Bravo!
Cool! Looking forward to it!
Oh do enjoy the R&R and a huge congratulation on the article!!
Thanks Manggy! Hope you enjoy it! :)
Hello Junglefrog! Thank you! Yes, unfortunately their distribution is solely local, but thanks for the congratulations! The quick version is tasty but the full-on version has incredible depth and flavour ...albeit not for every day :)
Thanks Susan! :)
Hi Maybelle’s mom! Thanks :)
Thank you Michelle!
Thanks Shalum! Hope you find it interesting!
Thanks Tanna! The r&r was fantastic...more on that soon! :)
I really liked your "quick" fabada recipe. I can't make it that often, seeing how we're a houseful of arthritics (oh, the uric acid!), but it's definitely a recipe that deserves to be served whenever possible - so good!
Happy Independence day Joey!!! I'm looking forward to that issue of yummy. Gotta ask my sister :-) to buy me a copy!
I super love this issue of YUMMY!
Congratulations on the feature! I'm sure the recipes are delicious!
Happy Independence Day, and congrats on the feature!!!
Hi Midge! Glad you liked it! :) We don’t eat it all too often either...balance in everything right? :)
