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!

I can’t wait to try the cheez sauce. Thanks! Also, I have never been able to afford anything from Lululemon, but I have heard incredible things.
I love Lululemon and I love that it’s Canadian!
Never purchased new workout gear in years! Still wearing old high school sport tee’s! :s
p.s. LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog
Great week of posts, Angela! Let’s just say I bookmarked quite a few of the recipes. :)
What a great giveaway! i would love some lululemon clothes.
I love your website! So much so that I was still a regular visitor even while on vacation in BC these past 2 weeks – with the 3 hour time change, you usually had a new post up by the time I woke up, so it was a great breakfast read with a cup of coffee! Now that I’m back home in my own kitchen, I’m going to be making the Chocolate Chunk Toffee Bars today, and I’m soo excited!!
I would love a gift card! Love your blog!
Megan
I’d love to win!
I love lululemon, everything I have ever bought from there has been really great!
Thanks Angela!
I love lululemon and would love to get some new workout clothes!
Absolutely love your blog and would love to have $50 to Lululemon!
i am a lulu junkie…it’s so hard to wear any other workout gear when their clothes just can’t compare to any others.
Long time reader and first time commenter! I just started getting serious with my yoga practice and the gift card would be a huge help – mesh shorts and tanks aren’t cutting it anymore!
I love this site! Thanks for this giveaway.
I would love to win because I’ve never tried Lululemon! I read all this buzz about it but have never tried it.
I just moved to Canada and would love to get a new Lululemon outfit to celebrate my arrival.
I discovered lululemon through you – how I wish we had something as good in the UK! Thank you for introducing this to me!! Along with GMs….baked donuts…quinoa…veggie burgers…the list goes on!!!
Thank you for your generousity of late though Angela!! You are being very kind to your faithful readers!!
