I previously asked a question on stack overflow about how to format my date in a readable manner. This was the gist of it was this.

How do I take

2010-06-14 19:01:00 UTC

and turn it into

June 14th, 2010

The answer that I used was calling post.date and simply adding the below to post.rb

@date = Time.now
@date.strftime("%B %d, %Y")

It does show the date in words but I don’t want to show the current date. I want the post.created_at date.

How can I modify the above (or what do I need to add elsewhere) to get this to work?

    A good resource for strftime is http://strfti.me
