Any French speakers out there?

[Stargazing]

If so, does this make sense?

"Boulanger depuis nouvellement, passioné depuis toujours?

Thanks!

Became a baker recently, but has always been passionate.

Oh, sorry, does it make sense ... not sure about 'depuis nouvellement'. That doesn't sound right to me, but hopefully an actual French speaker will come along to tell you?

yeah, it's the depuis nouvellement that's bugging me too - I read it in a baker's window in Paris and can remember the meaning but not the French, if you get me - so I am trying to cobble it together from my school French, which is like being on an archaeological dig!

its not quite right is it?

I would say "depuis peu" - not sure "nouvellement sounds right in that context

how about recentment or however you spell it?

It must mean 'recently' - nothing else makes any sense.

It's so annoying, my MiL has a french exchange student staying at the mo, so all it would take would be a simple phone call - but I'll be dmned if I am going to speak to my MiL, she was such a btch to me on the w'end!!!
