      @@sharongaines3043This one is Marie. She is absolutely lovely.
      I just wish she had a proper kitchen to use. The rustic kitchen currently used is lovely for the Lalande family breakfasts etc but for Marie to have stainless steel wipe clean surfaces and everything where she needs it would be amazing. I thought Marie may wear her chefs attire in the kitchen after going to chef school. She looked lovely and so professional in it.
      The other cook was Maria. Idk why but I just never took to her. I can't put my finger on why.

      I love Marie! ❤ Maybe perhaps she could wear her beautiful apron when she comes out to see the guests at the dinner table? Just a suggestion. 🙏

    You could always order faux gold jewelry wire to attach the electrics to the lights. It might be even more discrete than the tape.

    • @sharongaines3043

      You can get it in several different shades of gold, it would be ideal. that or gold twine.

    Thank you to all of the Lalanders for making our first stay at Lalande pure MAGIC! I can share that Marie’s first guest dinner was, indeed, a triumph. Nati is so lovely and attentive. Stephanie and Philip are even more charming and hospitable in person. My mother and daughter and I had the most remarkable stay in this beautiful home. Thank you to all! 💐

    I think Lancelot loves the bluebells especially, because dogs can see blue very vibrantly and the really stand out to him as a crazy splash of color. 😊

    I absolutely love this channel and everyone at LaLand! I look forward to these videos every day. I also love going back, from time to time, to Stephanie’s very first video and binge watching all her videos from the very beginning! I do it every now and again, because I have loads of time on my hands every day and what’s better to watch on UA-cam than The Chateau Diaries….absolutely nothing, because The Chateau Diaries is a channel full of love, laughter, family, friends and miracles…I LOVE IT! This channel lifts my mood, makes me smile and I also get to travel again by watching it. I was injured in the military (spine and other serious injuries) so, I spend a lot of time, alone, in my hospital bed at home, so to pass time, I love going back and rewatching all Steph’s videos. Just seeing how things have changed and transpired over the years is absolutely amazing to see, as well as seeing all those that have come and gone, as well. I absolutely adore Steph and Philip and all of LaLand and I feel like I’m a part of a very special family of people that come from all over the world! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

      Thank you for your selfless service! I often feel the same way ...particularly on difficult days when my Chronic Lyme acts up and gives me joint and limb pain... nothing like what you are going through I'm sure. But I do appreciate this channel for being so lovely, so positive, adventurous & filled with the kind of love and laughter I remember experiencing in abundance in better days. Takes me out of my self-pity & urges me to work through the pain & get my own little jobs done & even inspires me to garden again. Never stop trying to improve & look for solutions. Peace & Healing to you sincerely!! 💗💞💖

    Lancelot walking in the woods was so beautiful - I notice your Greater Stitchwort is out and looking as if it's been fed manure over the Winter - perhaps that is just next to little L.. And I never thought I would say this, but I missed the guests. Having them back is such an energy boost to the chateaux. Very pretty dress, Stephanie, and Phillip, you excel at anything decorational, including that table.. Things would be complete if your mother and Percy could return - she has always been such a vital part of chateaux life. Miss her.

    Everyday you succeed in your guest dinners, you should go and pick a bluebell flower or other type of flower and press it and at the end of the season you could arrange them and frame them. It would look beautiful and something to remember the 2024 guest season and your success. Wishing you all the best!

    This will sound strange, Stephanie, I’ve been a patron for a long while and have watched literally all of your videos from the very beginning , several , more than once anyway , my point is I’ve been on many walks with you , on the paths , at least I feel like I have, you make it so enjoyable , I love how you make me , and I’m sure everyone feel like we are your friends and we are on a stroll in the woods.. your videos with the good , and even some of the bad things that happen, make me smile every time I watch.. I’ve said it before , but I will say it again, thank you Stephanie for being a bright star in the scary storm we call life… hugs♥️ p.s. the chapel is looking amazing

    Is your new gardener planning on buying a chateau as well? You should take a trip to see Dan’s “safe” staircase and views. Stunning.

    Lancelot has come such a long way from the frightened little pup who was too nervous to venture outside. Now he's living his best life. I love seeing him enjoying the freedom of the grounds of Lalande. He really is a very lucky little dog, what a great life.

    Lights in the dining room, use gold wire and wrap it around the entire length following the spiral design of the arm. Will totally hold it in place and look pretty as well

    Lancelot loves every inch of his outdoors a rea of his Chateau as well! He reminds me of a wonderful host that cannot wait to just share all he owns and wants everyone to be as excited as he is about it!

    Everything looks so beautiful!! I adore seeing Bluebells spreading into the distance. The choice of music was so lovely.
    I remember walking my late best Buddy Dillon the black Labrador through the woods and I was unaware that Bluebells were toxic! Bad dog owner!!
    An excellent first amazing meal of the season Marie 🥰👍🏻
    Certainly a joie de vive atmosphere in the air!!
    Thanks so much!! Until tomorrow! I could watch these vlogs for hours!! 🌷🪻☀️🥂🍾🥰🙅‍♀️🙅‍♀️

    Stephanie’s right! - the gorgeous bluebell woods are like being in a dream and I have taken screenshots from a previous years vlog because it was such a heavenly sight to me! The Bluebells are so worthy of making prints of or making cards for the Lalande shop.
    I also had the thought that maybe Lancelot should have a high viz vest or collar in case he gets lost amongst the leaves in the forest.😅🥰

    The chapel will be a destination place for a lot of people I'm guessing. It is stunning now and there's more to come.
    Congratulations Marie, not sure where you find the time to do flowers and cooking.
