Pork, cranberry and thyme sausage rolls

Learning to sink or swim, the search for swimming lessons
I haven't had a swimming lesson since I was in middle school, and social media is full of women of my age enjoying open water or wild swimming as part of their wellbeing regime. Having taken the plunge myself, it was soon apparent that I was well and truly out of my depth. The post Learning to sink or swim, the search for swimming lessons appeared first on The Lean Cook.
Learning to sink or swim, time to learn
The date of my first lesson comes around quickly and strangely I'm nervous! As I arrive in the changing rooms, the room is filled with the sound of pumping music from the aqua size class that's coming to an end. Quickly this takes my mind off the reason for me being here on this occasion. The post Learning to sink or swim, time to learn appeared first on The Lean Cook.

Warm Courgette salad with fennel and lemon zest
We are on the verge of BBQ season and at home we pretty much have a salad of some variety every day, but I'm at the point where I'm looking for more in a salad. Not more ingredients, I mean a different take. This salad is packed with lots of flavours that I love and be sure to make extra because it's just as delicious cold too!

Self Help – Journalling
Self help is one of those areas that we're not very good at starting let alone maintaining. More often than not it costs nothing more than a little of our time, so why don't we do it more? The post Self Help – Journalling appeared first on The Lean Cook.
