New Finds

By

^^One of the prettiest Birchboxes to date! I am obsessed with this Love Beauty & Planet shampoo and conditioner they sent me. The smell! That long-lasting lipstick is pretty awesome too.

I stumbled upon this website advertising a new feminine product, which is one of my new finds this week. It’s kind of like a cross between the Diva Cup and the Nuvaring. I have loved using the Diva Cup, but there are a few drawbacks, such as the mess of re-using the cup and having to sanitize it. I like that Flex is tossable after use, but you can still wear it for a long time so you don’t need many per period. Has anyone tried this? I am planning to order a box!

Mazen loves his new bunny from Nona. He named him Frosty because he’s white like a snowman. Ours came from Personal Creations, and you can find similar ones all over Etsy. Just in time for Easter.

MY OTHER RECIPES

Speaking of Etsy, my mom has started selling her art there! You can see some her collection for sale, and she also takes custom orders.

I love her vision of “Two Friendly Sea Monsters and a Giant Flying Fish Escort the Ferry to Bald Head Island”

And “Pig Dreams of Life in a Castle Made of Mud.” These make great gifts for kids or nursery decor. : )

Speaking of worrying, now that the weather is warmer, I’ve been thinking about getting a GPS tracker for Mazen to wear when he plays in the neighborhood. We have 2 other families with kids, and they travel house to house in a pack, sometimes riding bikes within a perimeter defined by the adults. I spent a few hours one day researching these tracking devices, hoping to land on the best one and add it to my new finds, so I could give him a little all-American kid freedom while still knowing where he is at all times. This article has a great overview. Most of them were waaaay to expensive or required too much in a monthly monitoring fee ($30?!?!), but it seems that this one that Verizon carries called the GizmoPal 2 is actually not too bad – only $5 a month for the “phone” line and $75 for the watch plus $30 for activation. You can two-way call, track them via GPS, and get an alert if they cross a boundary. It seems like it’s perfect for kids Mazen’s age. It would be so nice to be able to make a quick call to the house up the block (without bothering the mom) and tell him to scoot home for dinner. I’m 75% sure I’m going to get it for him. Just wanted to see if any of you had tried it and had any thoughts?

And finally, I wanted to share how much we love our Social Print Studio square magnets! I get a set of 10 for $14 at least once a year, and my OCD self loves how they look in grid form 🙂

Thanks for watching reading!

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
