Hi there,

I’m Mimi, and welcome to my blog.  I write about food, family, design, travel and living in Connecticut.  I started this blog in 2020 as a creative outlet.  I suppose it is what you would call a “lifestyle blog.”  I do share “musings” (or rants as the case my be).  While this is an escape of sorts, with current events (2024) I will be sharing more observations on the scary state in the U.S. right now.

I am a mom to two girls.  My husband and I live outside of New York City in Connecticut.  While we are within commuting distance to New York City, we are very much in “horse country.”   We live in a quaint town that dates back to colonial times.  It is the best of both worlds – to live close to such a great city yet have a beautiful natural surrounding and a safe town.  We are also quite close to the shore.  CT has beautiful beaches too.  I will share details about living in and near New York City (we lived in Manhattan before moving here).

Working mom, part-time mom, at home mom

My background is in business.  I started my own marketing agency over ten years ago and never looked back.   I have it done it all in terms of working full-time, part-time and even some time as a full-time at home mom.  I can say from experience there are positives and negatives from all three of those situations.  I do feel strongly women need to have a means of making their own income and that is how I am raising my girls. Don’t be fooled by the “domestic” nature of this blog – I really enjoy cooking and entertaining but I believe in women being empowered.

When I started my own business I also had more time at home (no commute or that 45 minutes to “get ready” in the morning).   I became a great student.   Learning how to get organized (finally); improve my cooking (finally); decorate (which I love to do); maintain a budget (do not love to do…but very satisfying when done right) – and become the best parent I could be (still learning!).   

This blog will share all that I have learned.  I also love fashion, great style and am quite a bargain hunter.   I may occasionally share my finds and sales.  Having lived in France several times and as a frequent visitor there – that influence may be part of my posts too.  I have mastered more than a few French cooking recipes and picked up some handy style tips.

Where did the name come from?

Sunday’s bread is not a religious name for the blog but something that occurred to me while I was planning out the week (a must for any sane working mother).

Saturday was for meal planning (and figuring out how to get to the grocery store safely), and then because I enjoy baking I decided to bake a home made and usually healthy quick bread or muffins on Sunday afternoon.  It is relaxing, fills the house with a wonderful scent and brings me back to something simple but essential.

So my lifestyle blog, Sunday’s Bread was born.  

Glad you stopped by.  Enjoy!
