5 Factoids from the Week

By

Hi, guys!

Does anyone else use the word “factoids” in there everyday life or is it kind of weird? I wrote the title for this blog post and thought maybe it was a bit strange, but I actually use the word from time-to-time. But, hey, that’s just me letting my freak flag fly. Ha! Anyway, I just wanted to share some random “factoids” from the week! 🙂

1. Kindergarten registration was this week, and I can’t believe my baby is off to school next year – riding the bus and being a big kid. Oh my gosh, time sure does fly! (I’m not crying, you’re crying!)

2. We booked a vacation to Punta Cana! Mal and I have been talking about taking a tropical vacation for years now. We actually wanted to do one for our 10th wedding anniversary last summer, but it didn’t work out. We are beyond excited to visit the Club Med in Punta Cana this July! We picked this resort based off recommendations as well as it being super kid-friendly and all-inclusive.

3. I finally organized the recipes on Carrots ‘N’ Cake! There’s even a handy-dandy search option – check it out! 🙂

4. I took a Step Aerobics class on Monday, and my calves are still sore! The class was awesome and so much tougher than I remember. Obviously, my Step choreography skills were a bit rusty, but the pace was en fuego! Usually, I don’t have trouble keeping up in group exercise classes, but between the choreography and pace, I was a hot mess! It was definitely a good workout, and I’ll probably pop into a class every now and then.

5. We are loving the library lately. Of course, it’s great for Quinn. He loves picking out new books, and we’ve seen his love for reading and wanting to learn how to read so much in the past several months. I’m also loving it because I can read new book for free instead of ordering them on Amazon. I actually just requested What to Eat When and can’t wait to dive in!

Question of the Day

What good books have you read lately?

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
