Time seems to have stopped since 2020 but though I'll still be exercising plenty of caution, maybe 2023 will get moving a bit more. Already crossing my fingers that my back cooperates through another week for a short trip to NYC.

Some stats for the start. Weight...uh oh...back over 200 at 204.2. While I'm not going to track or count calories and I won't weigh myself any more than once a week, I'll be making more effort to eat better and try my best to move more. I'll be 53 this year yet my body acts like it's 20 to 30 years older than that. Being only 5'1", while I do have things that aren't due to my weight, taking some of the extra pressure off my joints in a healthy way will help.

Not that lasagna is particularly healthy, it is full of spinach and is vegan so it's a start. I put it in the oven right before 8am since the heat is still on in the apartment but there was a breeze cooling things down some.

I ate a tiny bowl and it was delicious and I split up the rest, putting most in the fridge for the next few days and one portion in the freezer.

Going to try the writing prompts for 2023 from lj user emaciatedwords, today's is this

What was the first vacation you went on as an adult? (IE – without parents, etc)
Honestly, my memory is swiss cheese. I think I'll count the first significant trip that I can remember which was the French Club high school trip to Montreal and Quebec City. I think I was a junior at the time. I was the only one that was brave enough to order their food in the restaurant in Montreal and as a result, I got the best service. lol. Montreal was pretty but I found the people there somewhat rude. Quebec City, however, was incredible. Super friendly people, beautiful place. I felt like I was visiting some place in Europe even though the only time before this that I traveled outside the country was to Toronto or Niagara Falls with family.

I didn't tell you (not that it is of earth shaking importance) that I found a can of garbanzo beans on my shelf, so I did use those. But what makes this is the spices. Even with ground beef, the cinnamon and ginger make it very tasty.
