After two years away, I expect to be back in
yuletide this year, so I am watching the new mods learn the modding ropes with a certain degree of interest.
I need to go through my dresser drawers and get rid of some things I never wear and will likely never wear again. I'm not quite prepared to do this with my closet, although a lot of things in it are presently too small by a size or two. Partly I don't want to abandon some things I really like; if they fit and I never wear them, that's a different matter. Partly I don't want to spend money building a wardrobe of things that I am hoping will be too big before long; I'm not buying things in aspirational target sizes, but I'm hoping to be shopping in a different part of the rack so I don't want to load up on stuff that will hopefully only fit for a brief period. However: (1) I have a shopping cart of ModCloth stuff that is just too cute for words. I might go ahead and do it anyway. (2) I am very diligently eating less and moving more and taking my vitamins and trying to make sure I drink enough water, and the scale is not. budging. one. bit. It is extremely frustrating. I feel better already, so I'm not going to stop doing it, but I mean really: no movement. Maybe I'm getting smaller while the weight is staying the same. It's too soon to tell. Argh.
Tonight I am going to make the cinnamon apple honey cake I've made for the past few Rosh Hashanahs, and bring it to work tomorrow. I thought about making it in muffin tins instead of cake pans, but then decided that won't work because the apple slices go in the bottom of the cake pan and then the cake gets inverted, and having apples at the bottom of your muffin cups wouldn't be the same. Putting the apples on the top of the muffins I think they'd get dried out. So regular cake pans it is.
