Yes, ladies, she ......JANET!......is still on the throne! If you were in junior-high or high-school when Control came out, then there is hope for us all!

Every year before the holidays, I usually get a prophetic word for the upcoming year. This year, the word I'm getting is DISCIPLINE:

In 2022, discipline is what's going to get you to where you want to be. Listen to what Janet has to say about it:

One of my favorite pieces of exercise equipment is the portable pilates bar. Yes, I've packed it in a suitcase and got on the greyhound. Click on the picture to purchase.

What happens is, the party doesn't stop. And now that the doctors of world are still working to get Covid 19 under control, we gone party harder. A good feeling is not having to hide at the oldies but goodies events where they play Frankie Beverly and Maze. Because those venues come with their own set of troubles.

Old school music these days is "for real gangster rap" as opposed to "trap music": Only a few years older and still "all the way cool." So, when you do step out, you want to feel just as good as you did before the babies.

I was at Five and Below and they sold an old school aerobic step. Made me wonder if step aerobics were making a comeback. Just in case, download this fitness friendly remix of Janet's song "Feedback" from her album "Discipline":

So for me, I need lots of moderate, consistent discipline when it comes to exercise because I love to eat. So for those trap queens who want to be health nuts, here is a Hot Spinach Dip Recipe. This is an old school recipe from my grandmother's shelf. It actually calls for a package of Four Seasons Cheese Garlic Dressing Mix. But they don't sell it anymore. Its that old.

DIRECTIONS:

1. Cook spinach according to instructions. Drain and squeeze dry.

2. Mix, sour cream dressing mix and spinach.
