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.

Enter me please! Love your recipes and I’m addicted to your cashew cheeze sauce. I added spinach to it this weekend. It’s heavenly.
I was still seeing updates to all the new posts, but thanks for the refresher. I am on my way into the kitchen right now to whip up the 5 Ingredient Cheeze sauce to make mac & cheeze for my son. Thanks for all the great recipes!
LuLu!!!! Love Lulu….this would be amazing:)
going back to school to pursue my dream! thanks for the career happiness page. now i just need some new lululemons to get comfy at my desk!!! :)
I could see all of your posts, but I loved being reminded of them and seeing a recap. I almost forgot the zucchini oatmeal & I really want to make it!
I’m so glad you posted those links, I had missed several of your posts last week!
I *am* going to be making those donuts, they look yummy!! Love your blog :)
I met up with a non-vegan friend this weekend who had no idea where to take me to eat because she didn’t understand what vegan food was. She thinks I eat salad only. I showed her your blog and she started to understand. So thanks for being my favorite blog, like lululemon is one of my favorite stores (though I don’t have the budget to shop there as often as I’d like!)
I love Lululemon! Pricey, yes, but the clothes hold up so well it’s worth it!
lululemon… almost as delicious as those toffee bars!
yeah! another give away on my fav. blog!!!! I love Lulu so much, I had almost bought some new things on line yesterday when I stopped, too expensive for me right now so 50.00 would be awesome!!!!!
Very inspiring recipes!
Whee! Lululemon!
Also, did you get any of the hurricane that swept through the US coastal and inner East Coast states?
I’m still on a hunt for a donut pan so that I can make those donuts… so far I’ve had no luck finding one though! :P
I would love to be able to try Lulemon out. I’ve heard so much about it on all of the blogs.
I love your site and lululemon! A match made in heaven!
I would love to win $50 to lulu :)
Awesome! Thanks so much!
I can’t wait to make those pumpkin donuts, they look so good! One of my favorite parts of fall is eating pumpkin donuts with a glass of apple cider. Thanks for doing the giveaway :)
I love lululemon!
Love me some Lululemon!
