new deadlift PR 305lbs.

felt like I could go a bit heavier but didn't want to push my luck. I feel tighness in my right lower back and hip flexor are what is limiting me most with the deadlifts.

Sunday night yoga class. Last class until the New Year. Need to keep up with it for 25 min. a day while class is off! It has paid big dividends in my flexibility and feeling good in general.

Today's cooking: Veggie Curry

1 C onions
2.5 tsp curry powder, or to taste
1 t cumin
1/2 tsp crushed hot peppers (optional)
1 C evaporated skim milk (small can)
2 C potatoes, cubed
2 C crushed tomatoes
1 C carrots, chopped
2 C broccoli florets
1-2 C cauliflower

Cook onions until soft, add curry powder, cumin and red pepper until fragrant. Add milk, bring to boil. Add potatoes and tomatoes. Cover and simmer until potatoes are tender, but not mushy. Add rest and simmer until tender. Add a little water if needed to keep moisture.
Should make about 4 servings.
Serve with rice.
