This Is Us

By

Good morning + happy Monday! How was your weekend? I always sit down and imagine you guys in all corners of the country – some with sunny, hot weather and others maybe with some chilly rain. And I know some of you are reading on the other side of the planet! In our corner of the earth, we had sun followed by lots of clouds and then finally cold rain. It wasn’t the most summery weekend.

Friday Happy Hour + Porch Time

Birch and I love to wait on the porch for Thomas to come home from work on Fridays! Then we have happy hour out there while we catch up.

I opened one of my Scout + Cellar wines – a Zinfandel from California. ‘Twas quite good!

Our fridge was empty and we ended up getting takeout tacos from La Michoacana. They were authentically delicious!

Birch loved his pouch + puffs!

Thomas and I watched the first two episodes of the new Handmaid’s Tale. It might be my favorite show of all time. It’s so well done. If you haven’t seen it yet, go watch!!

Saturday Workout

Birch woke up at 5:30 and T and I traded off trying to rock him back to sleep. I was dragging a bit and wanted to crawl back in bed, but I opted to go to my favorite gym class since it had been a few weeks and was so glad I did!

I never regret a workout. Like my latest fanny pack!?

Breakfast

The best post-workout snack. I love having a fridge of watermelon in the summertime!

I had a bigger breakfast after my shower. Yogurt + crumbled raspberry bar + almond butter + banana.

Lunch

Later on, I had a smoked salmon, cheddar cheese and veggie sandwich. Plus peppers with blue cheese dip.

A Visit To The Country

Thomas’s cousin, Blaine, and his wife, Haley, came down for a day visit all afternoon. We headed to Jefferson Vineyards after catching up to get some fresh country air and let Mazen run around a bit.

Girls, relaxing. Haley is due with her first baby the same day I was due with Mazen, August 31!

Photo credit to Mazen! We look kind of warped with our heads at the top of the photo.

Dinner at Three Notch’d

Next stop: Three Notch’d for dinner!

We had pretzel bites to start, naturally. And I had a tofu salad and beer sampler with a delicious honeysuckle summer ale!

Love our lobster high chair! B tried some mac and cheese and tofu!

Thomas and I had ice cream after the kids were in bed.

Cozy, Rainy Sunday

We had a snuggly morning at home. Thomas made biscuits and eggs for breakfast. Nona took Mazen bowling and to lunch, and we took Birch to the gym. It poured down rain all day, but it was a cozy time.

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

Evernote Review: Your Digital Organization Hub

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
