You Can Never Have Enough Avocado Toast

By

Hi, guys! Happy Thursday! 🙂

Just wanted to pop in real quick with a “day in the life” blog post since I feel like I haven’t done one in awhile. I’m making some fun behind-the-scenes changes over here, so I’m hoping to bring them back a little more often. Plus, I heard you guys enjoy them the most! 🙂

This morning started like most do: Iced coffee mixed with “iced tea that tastes liked coffee” and collagen followed by breakfast, which was some leftovers from the fridge. We’re off to Vermont to tomorrow, so I’m trying to use them up. In the mix: Parmesan Roasted Fennel with sliced chicken sausage.

After that, I did 1 of 2 sample collections for a Women’s Fertility Test. You take one blood sample at the start of your cycle and then one in the middle. (FYI: We’re NOT trying to get pregnant – just trying to figure out my hormones.) The nice people at EverlyWell sent me this test as well as their Food Sensitivity Test to try out. The Food Sensitivity Test just had one sample collection, which I did last Friday, and I ALREADY received the results. I can’t believe how easy and FAST the whole process was. Some of the results matched my LEAP results, but others were totally different, so now I know NO IDEA what to think. I just hit up all of my Registered Dietitian friends and plan to send Kristen a message later, so we’ll see what it all means.

After that, I got Quinn and myself ready for the day. I dropped him off at school and then headed to my friend’s house to get my hair colored. The grays were out of control! I shared the photo below on Instagram and received a bunch of questions about the hair dye since I’m trying limit my exposure to crazy chemicals. I don’t know of any natural dyes (besides henna), but I figure if I’m only coloring my hair a few times a year, it’s probably not that bad. I’m more worried about everyday exposure, ya know?

After my hair appointment, I had a meeting and then headed to Rosa Farms for an iced coffee and lunch. I actually ended up having 3 slices of avocado toast. It was so good and the gal making them didn’t want to waste the rest of the avocado, so I just ate what she made for me. You can never have enough avocado toast, right?

I hope you guys have a wonderful day! Mal, Quinn, and I have a hot date with Target this afternoon – new sheets and birthday party supplies! 🙂

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
