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!
[Contest Finished]
I first started reading your blog daily because I loved seeing someone inventing healthy fun and yummy recipes that were vegan! I didn’t feel as crazy haha. Now you are always giving away free stuff! I’m excited to see what else you will be adding to your blog in the future!
I have always wanted to buy some Lulu products, but they’re so expensive!
I would love to win that! And I love the new design!
I recently recieved my yoga teaching cert and have not yet purchased a new “Yay! Im a yoga teacher” outfit… This would be PERFECT! How sweet of you to provide this for us…. Lululemon should send you a free gift…
Love Lulu. i bought my first pair of pants and am saving for a new sports bra! Consider me signed up for the tatas!
It’s no secret that I am obsessed with Lulu! In fact, I have three packages on-route as I type this – oops :) Thankfully I didn’t have any problems viewing your posts and I’m happy you got it all figured out!
I saw so much Lululemon this weekend while running Hood to Coast. Love your blog!
I so enjoy your recipes and your thoughtful perspective of life. Thank you for doing what you do so well!
Ooh I love the new header and would love some new lulu!
Yay! I love lulu! Thank you for providing us all with such a health minded blog!
I love the clothes they sell–they are pricey, but still look just as good as when I first bought them!
Wow, Angela, this is such a generous giveaway! I love Lululemon, but as a no-income grad student, I have a hard time justifying spending a week’s worth of groceries on a workout top. This would be such a treat!
Yay for Lulu Lemon! Best clothing store e-v-e-r! I basically live in my Lulu pants :)
Me! Me! Me!
Love your site, and I WILL be making those pumpkin doughnuts!
I am glad that I for one did not miss your posts because I made your easy cheeze sauce and protein tortilla pizza. Let me just say that both are life changing. I literally was eating the cheeze sauce by the spoonful. I also made your pumpkin donuts. Love your recipes! I have never not liked something I have made from your blog.
So glad you’re ‘back’! LOL. Yours is the first blog I started reading faithfully, and from it I’ve started reading a few others. Its my little night tim indulgence. I crawl into bed with my Blackberry and see what’s the latest in Blogville!

Whoo! I’ve been dying to get a pair of lululemon capris! Unfortunately it’s not in my budget right now (that career happiness post REALLY spoke to me!), so thank you for the giveaway!
Wow! I’m glad I’ve been able to see your posts, and glad as well that the issue got fixed so that everybody can see them!!!
YAY for Lululemon givaway!!!! :D
