s I've said before love your recipes. One exception I do not use processed oils. Allergic. Any ideas?

Is there any way to cut back on the oil?
Love the almond and cherry combination.

In reply to Heather. Thanks Heather. Some days are certainly better than others but no one said raising two young children while running a blog was gonna be easy :)

Sending loads of hugs your way- I hope your week has gotten better. I would be super sad/angry/teary too if my photos were lost....good or poor, I absolutely adore cherries in my granola and almonds, well just about everything in this bowl has my name on it! Here's to a week with more naps, let hair gel made out of poop and good food 🙂

In reply to Laura Black. Thanks Laura. You're so kind. I hear you, everything takes me so long because I am not a tech savvy person. I'm thinking about taking some classes on computers just so I can get more efficient with this blog.

I am very excited to try this granola recipe. It looks fantastic. Cherry and almonds are two of my favorite things. :) I am so sorry to read about the trouble with your transition. I am not a technical person, so with my site, I am always learning, watching videos, etc., and sometimes I think it takes me twice as long to facilitate change as it should. But you know, that's okay. At least I'm moving forward...one snail's pace at a time. I have to say, though, that you have a lovely site and your articles are great reads.....and you survived this latest hiccup to write us about it!! Yay!

Poor you Sarah! I can't imagine what a stressful situation this must be. Sending you lots of calm thoughts!
I didn't know you had a previous blog. Lovely to see baby Eden!
I adore the cherry-almond thing so this granola suits me perfectly.

i love your honesty posts. LOVE. thank you for them. when i am stressed (and i always am) it really helps to read that others are going through different but similar emotions and experiences. i love your old blog. i wish i had the time to explore it all day. the granola looks magnificent, and i love the combination of cherries and almonds.

ps- i wonder what age we stop equating poop with play stuff. i wonder if there's ever been a study.

Sarah, my heart goes out to you with all this. You have faithfully poured so much time, creativity, love, and care into your website, and it must have been so discouraging to lose 70% of your posts. I want you to know how much I appreciate all you do and have done to share your posts with readers like me. I have tried your recipes and have been encouraged in my own journey to get the "food thing right" in my own life. Bless you.

In reply to Cadry. It's nice to know others have been through this and lived! Thanks for the empathy :) I may just look into Vaultpress.

Oh, my gosh, Sarah! I so feel for you! When I migrated my blog from Wordpress.com to .org, all of my pictures were lost... twice. My hosting site was supposed to have back-ups, but the pictures were all replaced with question marks inside of boxes. They said there wasn't anything more they could do. So I manually loaded 3 years of photos two times. It was awful. I've been wanting to change hosts again, but the thought of something like that happening has scared me off of the idea. Although, after I uploaded everything a second time, I got a subscription to Vaultpress, which is constantly saving everything on my site. I haven't needed to use one of their back-ups, but the peace of mind that I could is totally worth the money. Isn't it amazing to look back and see how much your work has progressed? The granola shots are lovely!
