Last week, my best friend Allison asked me if everything was ok because she hadn’t seen a blog post from me in a few days and was getting worried.
‘…not that there is anything wrong with you taking a break though!!’, she sweetly added.
Allison is a great friend.
I knew there was a major issue if she wasn’t seeing new blog posts because I hadn’t taken a day off blogging in over a week. I figured she wasn’t the only one having problems, so I asked you guys on Twitter and Facebook and just as I suspected many of you hadn’t seen any new posts since my Thrive post on August 14th. Some of you thought I died. I’m sorry to disappoint. ;)
Eric and I were able to pinpoint the issue to some cache settings in PHP that were changed the same day of my Thrive post. Basically, it was caching entire pages on some of your computers (saving in memory) so new posts wouldn’t appear; however many of you weren’t impacted at all. We removed these changes last week, so hopefully everything is running smoothly now.
I guess I can’t ask you who is still having problems seeing new posts though can I? ;)
Without further ado, In Case You Missed It…
1) Cinnamon Sugar Pumpkin Spiced Doughnuts
I dusted off my doughnut pans and cranked open my first can of pumpkin, albeit prematurely.
The hit of Eric’s birthday party. I was left with a few scraps!
3) Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Glazed Doughnuts
One of the craziest things I’ve ever made.
Stove-top, old fashioned easy cheeze sauce that comes together in minutes flat.
5) High Protein Tortilla Pizzas
I really did intend on saving Eric one…
6) Athens Honeymoon Photography
I’ve got the travel bug and you’re coming with me!
7) Chocolate Cake Batter Smoothie
You missed a spot.
Another way to sneak greens into your breakfast without tasting them.
9) Stuffed Mushroom Phyllo Roll & Mango Kale Salad
The beginning of my obsession with Phyllo.
10) Chocolate Chunk Toffee Bars
I made these for Eric when he was suffering from IMS.
11) How To Create Career Happiness FAQ
For a nice follow-up post (and great discussion!), check out this Graduation Fears that I posted a while back.
Out with the old, in with the new. Boy, were there mixed opinions on my header change!
Since many of you weren’t able to see my last Feel Good Tea Giveaway post, I thought it would be fun to have a giveaway today.
In honour of my favourite Canadian athletic store, I’m purchasing a $50 Lululemon gift card and giving it away to one lucky random winner. To enter, simply leave one comment below.
Contest will run until Wednesday. Goodluck!
Oooh new clothes! I have never tried Lulumon but have always wanted to! Love the colors of your new header by the way :)
Love your blog, and would love to win the Lululemon gift cert!
It would be oh-so-wonderful to be randomly selected!
Oooh Great giveaway! I have always wanted something from LuLuLemon, I heard there pants are amazing.
I made the chocolate chunk toffee bars and they are delicious!
I was able to read all your great posts last week! I hope my luck continues and I win!!
I love Lululemon!!
That phyllo creation looks divine! I’ve worked with phyllo before, but never made a roll like you did…looking forward to trying it!
I would love to win a lulu giftcard! I’ve wanted to try it forever! It could help kickstart my marathon training. :)
I would LOVE to win!
Ive never bought anything at lululemon since they are so expensive
I would looooove to win. I bought two items from lulu recently {for the first time} “just to try”….and now I’m hooked {unfortunately for my wallet}!
Love your site and love Lululemon!! Going to Canada for the first time on Thursday :)
Would love to win this and give it to my friend whose home was just brutally damaged in the hurricane.
No issues at all with getting new posts in Google Reader, but glad you have the issues resolved. Love the idea of updating the header, though your last one was lovely as well. And who doesn’t love Lulu?! :)
I am looking forward to trying to make chocolate chunk toffee bars and rosemary olive chips sometime! Glad you’re back and so excited for the giveaway!
(long time reader, first time commenter. hi!) thanks for the great giveaway, I love lululemon!
Woohoo!! New fall running clothes, perhaps? ;)
I love the “in case you missed it”s!! When you first posted the “Stuffed Mushroom Phyllo Roll & Mango Kale Salad” I wasn’t feeling like it was something I needed to make, but now that I’m seeing it again I think I’ll give it a whirl!! Weird how your taste buds can want something one day but not the next.
As someone who has been trying to adapt to a vegan lifestyle, your delicious recipes make it so much easier & more tasty!
I read your blod everyday, and I love the new header. You were the first one to get me interested in eating more vegan meals – before this blog I didn’t think there was much you could eat as a vegan, and boy was I wrong.
I have always loved lululemon, but only have one item of theirs because I cannot always justify the price :( I love this giveaway idea!
I’ve heard so many good things about lululemon, I would love to try them out! I’m in desperate need of new workout clothes.

Happy Monday! I’ve got my eyes on those mushroom phyllo rolls for dinner. Sounds like the perfect cure for a bad case of the Mondays.
I have been getting all your posts, but I do love Lululemon and wouldn’t mind winning that!
wow, glad you and eric could figure out the missing blog posts problem, angela! (i did not notice – got ‘em all as you posted them!).
thanks so much for the giveaway – such a sweet idea. (i think seeing all you lovely recipes and photos has permanently planted the word SWEET in my brain!). :)
What a special treat this would be (and just in time for my birthday)!! I don’t treat myself to quality work out gear and instead usually shop at Target. This would be over the top!!
I recently lost a decent amount of weight and my workout clothes are starting not to fit me!! Would love some new Lululemon gear! Also made your weekend glow kale salad this weekend. Yum Yum Yum!
Yay Lululemon! Hope I win!
Thankfully I didn’t miss out on any of your posts. We tried the veggie burgers yesterday, and they were a hit! I would LOVE to win that gift card!
Looks like some awesome receipes.. Iam planning my fall menu’s this week
and can’t wait to try some of these..

I don’t own anything lululemon, most of my workout gear comes from Target :) I have heard great things about their clothing though, and would love to own a piece or two.
Great giveaway! I love their stuff!
Oooh I would LOVE to splurge on some Lulu clothes. So jealous of all the fitness bloggers with all their cute running clothes ;-)
Glad you’re “back”, Angela! Now to catch up on all these recipes! : )
A) LOVE lulu… as a hot yoga instructor keeping up with laundry.. is ridonculous!
B) Zuch. oatmeal = AMAZING!
Thank you for your amazingness! :-)
I love your site! Definitely want to try the pumpkin doughnuts! And would really love the lululemon gift card to outfit my yoga obsession!
Been eager to try Lululemon… good luck to all!
I’m glad I didn’t miss any of your posts – especially the cake batter smoothie, which I made (and loved!) immediately!
