    About

    I am happy your curiosity brought you here! Wait.. Is it your curiosity or your hungry stomach?  So... you are checking the "About" section, you are probably wondering who I am!

    Hope you have a few minutes, grab a café and let's chat...

    Where are you from?
    I am originally from the sunny South of France, La Provence! However, I live in Toronto, Canada with my wonderful husband, el Cubano and our 2 beautiful kids! 

    When did you start cooking and baking?
    I started baking really young, I could not even turn the gas stove by myself. I would melt the butter by making a really hot water bath in the sink!

    Why did you start Bon Appet'Eat?
    I first started blogging in French, on another blog, to share my French recipes. When I became a Mom, I decided to create Bon Appet'Eat to have a place to share simple recipes from scratch and always show off my French recipes with pride.
    I was not consistent for years because I thought of it as a hobby. However, to be totally candid here, yes I would love my blog to be more than a side hustle.

    What will you find on Bon Appet'Eat?
    Baking and cooking inspiration! Advice and tips that would find useful. Whether you are a busy family or a single person, I really hope my recipes will get you in the kitchen!

    So you are a French Mom...
    The most common question I receive is how do you get your kids to eat EVERYTHING? I even did a small interview with my son when he was 4. It is the most adorable thing you'll see and it was NOT scripted.
    I love that I inspire my kids too, they are my little behind the scene assistant during my photoshoot and they also enjoy being hand models once in a while!
