The Friday 5

By

Hey there and happy Friday to you!

The Hauperts had quite the fun vacation week. It started out slow, but definitely ramped up towards the end. Quinn took part in a science "investigation" camp with his best friend. As a family, we went into Boston and saw Disney on Ice. I had an Entyvio infusion. Mal and I did our taxes and then went out to lunch one afternoon. Quinn and I baked Snickerdoodle Blondies for Mal. (He loved them!!) We (almost) completed a 1,000 piece Star Wars puzzle. We went bowling with friends, played at the playground, and went swimming one day. Wow, I'm kind of exhausted typing that all out! 🙂

With it being Friday and all, it’s time for another edition of the Friday 5 where I share my top 5 favorites from the week. It’s quite the mix this week, and I hope you enjoy!

In case you missed it, I have a brand new CNC newsletter: sign up for Free Fridays to get lots of freebies (tips, advice, meal plans, workouts, giveaways, deals, and more!) straight to your inbox every other week.

Have a fabulous weekend, friends! 🙂

1. My New Cookbook

Ahhhhhhh! I'm so excited for you guys to get your hands on my new macro cookbook! It comes out this August and, it is chockfull of macro-friendly recipes that I know you're just going to love. I've poured my heart (and kitchen, haha) into this book, and am thrilled for you to have it as a resource in your kitchen this summer!

2. Whole Foods 365 All Dressed Chips

New favorite snack in the Haupert household: Whole Foods 365 All Dressed Potato Chips, they are so addicting! Seriously, you need to try All Dressed Chips! I don't even like potato chips that much, but I love these!

3. Beautycounter Supreme Cream

I have a new obsession with this moisturizer! It's a thick, luxurious night cream that feels like whipped butter. Not only does it feel heavenly, but it contains Beautycounter's signature Retinatural Complex, a safer alternative to retinol, so it's full of active, anti-aging ingredients. I like to use it after the Overnight Resurfacing Peel -- the combination of the two gives my skin the most amazing, hydrated glow! 

4. LEGO Masters

We have so much fun watching this TV show with Quinn. Lego Masters is a reality competition in which teams compete to build the best Lego project. It's actually REALLY entertaining, and I just love Will Arnett, who is the host of the show!

5. Love is Blind

And for when Mal and Quinn aren't around, and I want to "Netflix and chill," this show has become a new guilty pleasure. Men and women look for love and get engaged, all before meeting in person. I know, I know... another silly reality show, but it's highly entertaining! 🙂

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
