Big Wheels Keep On Turnin’ {Weekend Recap}

By

^^ That silly dog got me!

Hope you guys had a good weekend. We had totally awesome 60+ degree weather and sunny skies. It was epic to get outside again!

On Friday I met two of my girlfriends at Chopt for lunch. I had the falafel bowl – it was great!

Friday afternoon was super chill. Emily and her son came over and we sipped wine while about 15 neighborhood kids played in the back alley.

For dinner Friday night we made spaghetti with meat sauce (at Mazen’s request!)

We had a side of the most garlicky garlicky kale imaginable from whole foods! T and I suffered with garlic breath all night.

We watched the movie IT after Mazen went to bed. I thought it was awful. 1/5 rotten tomatoes from me. But the Half Baked Ben & Jerrys was delish!

Saturday morning breakfast was consumed in stages. Blueberry swirl toast with cinnamon butter to start.

Followed by a tiny little jalapeno omelet that Thomas made mid morning.

We all piled in the Highlander to head to the gym. After quick workouts, Thomas took Mazen swimming and I went to the spa for a facial!!!

Alyssa is simply the best, and the Eminence products are my favorite of all time. They are botanical and just smell so good! When I run out of my current stash, I will be buying some of these. The ones with Stone Crop and Monoi all smell incredible. Thomas got me the Monoi body lotion for my birthday!

The Bamboo Firming Liquid is something Alyssa always uses on me during facials, and I just love the smell.  The same with the Coconut Moisturizer!

This time she also used this Rice Milk Cleansing Water, which is supposedly a toner, cleanser and make-up remover all in one. It’s also on my wish list! You guys have to look for these products just to smell them!

After the gym we went to Bodos for lunch. I had the usual – smoked salmon with cucumber and sprouts.

Later in the afternoon the kids played outside and made a water stand. Mazen yelled “free waaaater” at passerbys.

We headed to Giant to support Sylvia’s scout troop by making a few necessary purchases. Had to!

And then on the way to the park Mazen’s friend who we brought with us ended up throwing up all over our car. Poor little guy got sick so fast. It was a LOT, so we spent the rest of the afternoon recovering, cleaning and disinfecting. Our plans for grilled pizzas on the Big Green Egg were derailed, so we defaulted to Whole Foods hot bar for dinner instead.

Knock on wood, but so far everyone seems to have escaped the yuckies. Mazey took his crispie to the shower! #ShowerBeer

On Sunday morning I had toast with bacon and coffee.

And played Legos until Matt came over to pick Mazen up for the day.

I took Gus for a 3.5 mile run, and cleaned up the house for a bit. Then headed to the country with my girls!

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
