NO, no we’re not using a filter, I promise!! :mrgreen: It’s just REALLY green around here!

I made this smoothie with a Fage strawberry yogurt (one of the kinds with some jam on the side) along with vanilla protein (Arbonne’s), frozen banana, milk, and a handful of raw oats. It was the JAM! Some fresh raspberries and Cville Cluster Granola on top.

I’ve been consistently making two smoothies at once and putting one away for a snack or tomorrow’s breakfast. So that same smoothie I had the next day with blueberries and more cluster crunch. GAH that Cville Cluster Granola is so good!!

Little Birchie is not quite loving oatmeal yet. He LOVES purees from a jar – ones that are basically liquid. But he’s not too wild about thicker textures yet. I started with mashed foods and they were too thick, and I’ve also tried the nearly-powdered oatmeal and he takes a few bites and then decides he’s done. I added some prunes and cinnamon to this oatmeal and he still wasn’t into it. I hope this isn’t a bad sign for the future!! I think it’s just the texture though. I will keep trying!

Lunches of late have revolved around Plenty’s sweet potato + lentil salad, which was so darn delicious! I topped it with leftover chicken and some pimento cheese for an easy lunch.

The next day I had it with a sliced sausage and massaged kale. I let Birch try one of the sweet potato cubes mashed and his little tongue didn’t really know what to do with it.

Also from Plenty – a yummy curried tuna salad with raisins, chopped apples, and celery. Thomas and I ate this all week!

I made some kale chips for the first time in a while for an easy quiche dinner side. I have missed them and need to remember to buy kale so I can make more!

I am 36.5 years old and I do not have to pronounce gyros. Is it HEROS or GI-ROS or YEE-ROS!? I feel like as soon as I decide it’s one thing someone calls it something else. Perhaps it’s getting lost in translation.

Anyways, this chicken, tzatziki and tomato/cucumber gyros was great for an easy dinner.

I ordered the Balancing No. 3 Charcoal mask with some product credits I had accumulated and loved it!! So glamorous : ) I’m so bad at remembering to do masks, and I’m trying hard to do this once a week. I think I need a mask day. Mask Monday?

And for sweet starry dreams, my dad got me this constellation pendant hand-painted on a shell at the Hillsborough Farmer’s market. It’s by Jen Phillips, and she has an Etsy shop here. I get lots of compliments on it!

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
