Weekend High Low High

By

Hey friends!

I apologize for the delayed weekend recap. If you visited CNC yesterday, you might have experienced technical difficulties. My new homepage is causing quite the problems! There was an old plugin that totally threw it for a loop. I *think* we have things worked out now, so, hopefully, it’s smooth sailing moving forward. Technology… blah.

The Hauperts had quite a fun fall weekend – with some highs and lows in the mix. I know you guys love a good High Low High blog post (and they’re fun for me to write), so let’s recap with some highlights and lowlights from our weekend!

HIGH: Visiting the new Lucky Finn at Merchant’s Row after CrossFit on Monday morning. The original Lucky Finn in Scituate is my favorite coffee shop ever. It’s absolutely adorable and the food and drink it awesome. I actually picked to go there on Mother’s Day last year because it’s one of my favorite places. Long story short, the Lucky Finn people opened a second location 7 minutes from our house, and I’m beyond excited!

LOW: Having no appetite for food at Lucky Finn. Wahhh! I’m ALWAYS hungry, but, apparently, my breakfast did a good job holding me over. I passed on food and ordered a hot decaf coffee instead. I know… WHO AM I?! The next time I visit, I’m definitely going to order The Figgy! I mean, I devoted a whole recipe post to the sandwich. It’s THAT delicious!

HIGH: Visiting Sauchuk’s Corn Maze & Pumpkin Patch for some fall family fun! We visited for the first time last year and had THE BEST time – we just had a go again this year. We definitely had a great time! 🙂

LOW: Waiting 40 minutes for face painting. Quinn really wanted a lizard painted on his face, so we waited… and waiting. It was worth it in the long run, but there was so many other cool things to do at Sauchuk’s! Oh well… it made Quinn happy! 🙂

HIGH: Carving pumpkins on Sunday morning! Quinn really got into this year! 🙂

LOW: It’s rained since we carved our pumpkin, so we haven’t had a chance to light them up yet, which, of course, is that best part!

HIGH: Watching the Pats game and eating Pixie Wings (from Whole Foods). Quinn even ate one – his very first chicken wing. Woohoo!

Question of the Day

How was your weekend? What are some highs and lows? 

P.S. If you haven’t had a chance yet, be sure to enter to win a box of double chocolate protein muffins from Health Warrior! They’re seriously SO GOOD!!

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
