He knew exactly what I was up to ?

Sorry Thomas, next year it can stay up a little longer!

I am ready for New Years!! The red and green have been put away, and the bright whites and navy blues have reappeared.

I’ve been reading Loveable Livable Home by Young House Love to inspire me to make some home improvements!

Yesterday’s lunch: tuna salad, chips, green salad with peppers, nuts, feta and homemade dressing.

Despite the cold, Mazen had a blast playing outside with the neighbors. I say it all the time, but we’re so lucky to have them as playmates! They had a fire pit going with hot dogs and s’mores.

We had leftovers for dinner last night – mac and cheese, BBQ chicken and a freshly made salad.

Breakfast today was orange in theme – scrambled farm-fresh eggs and an orange. Plus coffee!

I went to strength class mid-morning, and then T and I hit up Mezeh for a quick lunch before heading to Lowes. I am still tweaking my Mezeh order to find the perfect balance between tasting amazing and feeling full. For a while I was so uncomfortably full that I wasn’t hungry for dinner hours later. So I’m trying to lighten up by subtracting things I don’t care much about (rice) and putting weight into my favorites (anything white!) Today’s bowl was arguula with carrots, cucumber, eggplant x2, spicy hummus, falafel, a few pieces of chicken kebob, and three kids of feta and yogurt dips. (That last one is where I over-do it and also refuse to compromise on!)

We are in the process of turning our guest room closet into a proper linen closet, so I went with my handsome handyman to pick out the shelving. I love watching him in his element. Concentrating on drywall anchors:

Post-Workout Coffee Protein Shake

Once again, I’ve partnered with Brother  to show the versatility of the  Brother P-touch Label Maker , especially when it comes to fitness and gym equipment.  As always, thank you for supporting CNC! I receive quite a few questions from readers about what I eat before, during, and after workouts, so I decide to share those with you today. It changes a little bit from workout-to-workout, but I keep a general framework in mind. BEFORE (approximately 30 minutes): I typically eat a small snack made up of mostly simple carbs since they provide quick energy. Some favorites: Half of a banana or another piece of whole fruit, a protein bar, handful of raisins, or a rice cake with jam and sometimes nut butter (it just depends how hungry I am and the timing of my workout). DURING : I typically don’t consume anything during my workouts, unless they’re longer than 90 minutes, like if I’m training for a long distance race (i.e. half marathon). In that case, I’ll take an energy gel and water ev

If you’re looking for a one-stop shop to organize your digital life, check out Evernote! Here’s my Evernote review and all the great features you can use to make your thoughts, notes, and files easy to find, sort, and save.  This post is sponsored by Evernote .  Raise your hand if your digital life feels cluttered. If we were in a room, almost everyone’s hand would go up, including mine!  With so much of our lives digitized these days, it’s hard not to get overwhelmed with all the information we need to save and reference. And because computers, the internet, and living in email and calendars are relatively new to humans, we as a society are still learning good systems. If I asked you to organize a paper filing cabinet, you’d probably have a few good ideas on how to do that. But if I asked you to organize a computer hard drive, many of us get stumped on the sheer volume of files and the endless ways to sort.  The good news is there are apps that make this process more intuitiv
