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!

Hi, I have not missed any of your posts thankfully:) But, I do have to tell you what a great summer I had trying as many of your recipes that I could fit into my schedule. I’m a teacher and I am often too busy to try new recipes except on weekends, so as soon as school ended I think I tried something new everyday for the first two weeks. So thank you for all of the great recipes, keep ’em coming:)
I would love to win the gift card, it would really make my day. And, let me tell you it didn’t start out well:( I live in Riverview, NB and today was my first day back to work…and the power was out. Last night, I had taken a shower and let my hair dry in a headband, thinking I would just straighten it in the morning…you can imagine what my bangs looked like! I had a little meltdown and pinned them up as best I could. Oh well, the good news was that the power was out at the school too and the principal took us all out to breakfast and we didn’t have any meetings until one o’clock:)
Thanks again for all the great recipes.
I am dying to try some of your donut recipes! I just need to get my hands one of those cute little pans.
Hi Angela! Thanks for all the inspiring new recipes. I recommend your site to all my health-conscious friends. Love the new header, and keep em coming. You totally motivate me :)
Love lulu!
I’m so happy I can see your posts again! I need to get myself a donut pan and try out these Pumpkin Spice donuts!!
I would love some new yoga pants for university!
I’ll be making those chips TONIGHT! ;)
Mmmm… the donuts look so good :)
Here’s a comment from me! (Boy, looks like you’ve gotten quite a few!)
Just found your blog via Karla’s Closet, and I’m loving it! Bookmarked!
I would love an excuse to get my first “real” yoga gear and ditch my ratty shorts from Target. :D
I like your new header – delicious! :)
