tick… tock… tick… tock…
… BONG! That’s 2 016 hours of stress fracture rehab in the bag, 12 weeks of no-running done and dusted. Today I went for my first proper run in three months – a very gentle but steady and continuous 10 whole kays, and I’m happy to report I can...

This is the space where that’ll happen. I’ll be sharing recipes I’ve tried, tested and loved – old trusted ones, newly discovered ones, experimental ones. And I hope you love ‘em too.
Let the sharing begin!
