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.

Contest will run until Wednesday. Goodluck!

Awesome, awesome giveaway. I mean, who doesn’t love lulu?
I don’t own a single lulumon product and would love to. :)
btw i love the changed banner. I thing it looks really good and love the idea of a new one every season.
Love your new header! And love Lululemon!
Every morning starts with your post! I’m a Lulu newbie, just learning to appreciate the quality, would love a few bucks to spend there!
I want it!!! :-)
I drool over the Lululemon website nearly every day. There is a store across the street from my gym!! Talk about temptation…I’d LOVE LOVE LOVE to win!
Well, I use your site everyday! My son, Van and I bake up a storm and he loves the pictures on your site because our baking doesn’t look as fancy as yours ;) Always taste delicious though! These little giveaways are awesome, who would not want to win some lulu gear, always a fav when I workout! PICK ME PICK ME ;)
I always read your blog just a bit too early before lunch and your recipes make me hungry! Everything you made last week looks great. I must have been one of the lucky ones to be able to have seen the original posts, but today’s round-up was a nice reminder that I have some new recipes to try!
Have a great day, Angela!
Going to read the cinnamon sugar donut recipe NOW… lol :)
I’ve been wanting to try Lulumon for a while – I’ve heard great things about their workout clothing from you and several other bloggers!
Oh my gosh, I need those cinnamon sugar pumpkin spiced doughnuts in my life asap.
woohoo, i love lululemon! can never get enough :)
thanks for the links to the recent posts, i was missing some of them!
Happy I haven’t missed any of your posts! Love lulu and love your site!
I’ve heard so many people say they love Lulu, so I’d love to try them out! Thanks for the recap, too! Have a great week!
I’m kind of a minimalist but I’m desperately looking for a donut pan in stores around here. You make such a single use item look essential!
Lulu! Go Canada!
I heart lululemon!
