Bonjour and welcome to Quaint French Living — I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m Gaby, the daughter of a French mother and an American father, raised with a love for traditional living: slow meals, seasonal food, and everyday rituals that make life beautiful.
Growing up, I spent nearly every summer in France with my French family. Those experiences shaped my view of living well: simple, from-scratch meals, shared family tables, and a home centered on quality, not excess.
As a physician with nearly two decades of experience, I’ve seen firsthand how deeply food, lifestyle, and daily rhythms influence long-term health. Over time, I realized that the traditional French way of living — rooted in whole, unprocessed foods, seasonality, and intentional routines — is not only beautiful, but also profoundly nourishing. It proves that pleasure and health can truly go hand in hand.
Here at Quaint French Living, I share from-scratch French recipes, seasonal living, and simple daily practices — all grounded in tradition, simplicity, and joy. My hope is that this space brings warmth, inspiration, and a little touch of France into your daily life.
