Behind the recipes

Hey There!

Lovely to meet you!

My name is Sonja and “For The Pleasure Of Eating” is my food blog that focuses on the joy of eating while fuelling my body in a healthy way.

I’m a German living in Ireland since over 15 years. I suppose that makes me about 1/3 Irish by now.

In summer 2020 I decided I want to lose some weight, but, being coffee fuelled and food motivated, I didn’t want to do it with a restrictive diet, that has me hangry all the time. Being a woman over 40 and having arthritis did not make this easier.

So I started figuring out my own way and lost 70lb in just 1 year, while still very much enjoying food and life in general.
This is what I will share here with you.

No matter if you’d like to lose a few pounds or just find new recipes to enjoy and share, you will find ideas here.

My motto is: If it doesn’t create a party in my mouth, it’s not worth eating.
