Start Here

Bonjour – My name is Marianne. I am a French woman who moved to the United States in the 2000s. I live in Cleveland, Ohio with my husband and our 10-year-old daughter. Oh, and I am also the owner of Simply Gourmand, an online French grocery store.

Dosa Clafoutis – I explain the name here – is about our life as a multicultural family. My husband is from India. Our family is spread over three continents. Our daughter speaks three languages. That makes for practical challenges, funny situations, and all sorts of thoughts I am sharing here. But this blog is also about reaching out to other multicultural families, talking about the diversity of their experiences, the richness of their lives, and the obstacles they sometimes encounter.

These posts will give you a good sense of what I am trying to achieve:
