💕Stephanie the top of your dress we can see looks beautiful💕You have received many beautiful books to go into your Library which I’m really looking forward to seeing💕
Always amazed by the thoughtful gifts... the beautiful 'Book of Days' showing the Chateaux and Philip was quick to say, "look dogs, Chateau life calls for dogs darling"... Stephanie just keeps talking! I did mention the dogs in the old postcard shot of Lalande, saying it was time for a puppy - and at last Amaury is bringing his dog over, thanks Natti! 🐶🦘
What really lights my lights is that all of you enjoy the journey! I've been restoring my "maison de maitre" for almost 50 years. It's still a work in progress but at 82 y/o I'm not sure if it will be done....in reality....it doesn't matter. We hope our journey at our residences will inspire those who come along after we are gone, are ready to take the next step and restore these wonderful places. Bon chance! Cheers.
you look fabulous Stephanie! What a dress!! Lovely dark beauty Natalie too. So heartening to see the generosity and thought of so many people you inspire
Another extraordinary caddeau and wonderful gifts. My favorite was the mother and child and I agree it rightfully belongs in the chapel. Take care all.
You are correct, the mother and child porcelain dish rightfully belongs in the chapel but my only concern is that being a small item it could easily “walk”. I don’t know what your security is like but I believe that the chapel isn’t always locked. Is the sacristy locked? If so that’s where I’d put it. It truly is an heirloom and needs to have a secure place to live. Another gorgeous cadeaux, all your vlogs give me and all other viewers such joy. Love and best wishes from Neil in Australia 🇦🇺 PS Phillip how is Operation Puppy Dog going? I’m firmly on your side, the chateau needs a dog or two!
I missed most of the live stream. I've said it before, but your abilities (all of you) to remember different people and your very specific kind words to people are most touching.
Holy cow those pixie earrings are stunning! I am blown away by Gerald’s porcelain painting skills, I’ve never seen anything like it. What a precious gift.
Love the charms (fairy earrings) from Russia. So special, magical, and pretty! Stephanie wears them well. Also love hearing Phillip's reactions. :) Beautiful painted porcelain from Oregon.
Chateaulanders, I'm so glad that you are enjoying the gourmet food boxes and baskets. Each gift box is sourced from a different region (or regions) of France. June's basket, as you mentioned, Stephanie, held delicious foods found in Bretagne. The May gift box was the "Tour de France" from several regions. April's Easter box was Chocolate Indulgence, hopefully enjoyed by all, as the gift baskets are meant to be. The theme for March was Gastronomie Sud-Ouest. There are two benefits to such edible gifts; first, they keep Stephanie, Nati, Philip and fellow gift unwrappers energized as they pore through the weekly mountain of gifts to be discovered, and secondly, they incur no custom duties! it's a win-win for Chateaulanders. (PS: My own interpretation --- I call all fans of The Chateau Diaries and Chateau Unwrapped vlogs 'Lalanders' while referring to all the wonderful characters living/working there as 'Chateaulanders'.)
@@laplumedematante what knowledge do we have that he or any of the others do not? A portion of the proceeds of this channel has gone to several charities 🤔 How can anyone judge or ass U me? Good day to you La plume and blessings all around.
Yes I agree, such beautiful and touching gifts today, that are so appropriate to the recipients and spread delight and joy to both LaLande and those who watch.
Lobster bisque, scallops in herbs oh la la. Sigh. So yummy. What a good friend, Michael is. And I love your dress... like the porcelain ... and such a flattering cut.
👑 Nothing more magical or fitting for 🏰Chateau LaLande's storybook 📖 princess than pixie 🧚♀️ wing earrings. 🤍The charming set was a fantasy piece. The brilliant bracelet cuff 🦸♀️ was outstanding too💜. ✨️ Stephanie 〰️in her ultra feminine 🔵blue & white⚪️ dress & flowing golden locks〰️ looked ready to frolic in the woods 🌳 and talk to the 🐰animals🐭. Beautiful! ✨️ Another episode of generous tributes 💝 from loving ⚜️LaLanders.

Beautiful gifts always, I hope you liked your little gift which was left in the apartment we stayed in the weekend, it really wasn’t on the scale of your beautiful gifts you receive, but it was really just to say thank you for a wonderful stay lots of love Denise xx
I absolutely 💯 love watching you guys Stephanie you are a amazing lady that lives life with such joy Would love to visit the beautiful chateau Look forward to watching more all the way from New Zealand 🇳🇿 ❤❤❤❤
There are so many worthy charities and causes to support. It breaks my heart that I can't support them all. The ones that alleviate suffering are the ones I tend to support: refugees, Indigenous land rights, habitat conservation, ecological justice, and animal rescues.
For me, the most special gifts are the ones that have been made/created by the senders, and the one's that have been in people's families. But those earrings! They absolutely appeal to the pixie-imp that I am. 🧚 I'd love to be reminded of the place to buy them, if that's ok? I tried typing in what I thought I was reading but nothing is coming up. And we all get to ooh and ah, delighting in the all these incredible gifts, because you share them all with us. Thank you so much, you ever-so-thoughtful thing, you, Stephanie. 🥰 Love Jacqueline from New Zealand 🌺
Those beautiful books are amazing. I love the one with the book of hours. The sculptures also look incredible. Thank you Stephanie and Natti for your lovely joy of life. You look like a beautiful piece of Delft porcelain Stephanie in that lovely summery dress. It suits you so well. I loved the mother and child piece of hand painted china too. She looks so innocent with her child. Many greetings from Australia, David
Oh Steph, you speak from your heart and with every gift your delight is so very sincere. When you share this with us your joy is palpable. I often finish watching with tears in my eyes. Thank you so very much.
Hola from Honduras! Love it that you give the ad revenue to charitable organizations. I would encourage you to consider donating to the UN World Food Program which truly is without borders. Thank you. 💖
I have a copy of the Très Riches Heures, I love it. One of my very favourite books. 🇦🇺 It contains what is thought to be the first cast shadow in a painting, and the figures diving into the river show the refraction as the body angle changes as it enters the water.
i found you all about a week ago and have been watching to catch up… i actually just heard about this channel while in the middle of watching Perfect French Mini Break😄.. i’ll go back to finish watching after this. 👍🏾
Welcome to the LaLande Family ❗️ Some of us have been with Stephanie since very early on. We call ourselves, LaLanders. In one of the first livestreams, when we tried to think of a name, one of the less than about 14 of us came up with LaLander’s. You’ll find it’s your favorite channel, & livestreams are a great time! Peggy Ohio, USA 🇺🇸
I found LaLande in Spring of 2020 and I fell in love with everyone. I played catch-up and enjoyed every single one. Enjoy Ricky trying to remember to like everyone I watch was a challenge but enjoyed going back and watching again to make sure I did 👍 🙃 It’s very hard for me to watch the live and keep up with the chat screen but reading what others are saying is a delight. 🥰
Cynar is also my favorite apéritif, sorry it broke. And speaking of savon de Marseille, it also helps to calm the itching of mosquito bites’ specially when there is nothing at hand and that there are many bites, soap the area and let it stay without rinsing. Love and best wishes to lalanders. Have a wonderful summer.
These are always so lovely, such thoughtful gifts, and the atmosphere.is that we are there spending time with you! I love that dress, Stephanie, and the earrings did add the fairy princess look.
Hi everyone, wow did you get some beautiful things this time. The book and that incredible painted dish. I've had a difficult day and spent it sleeping. And just watched a few of my favorite UA-cam channels. Thank you for a lovely time. My favorite part of watching your channel is the laughter and smiles in the kinship you have with one another. And I'm sure it makes many of us feel that we are there with you. God bless you and yours. Love, jenwhite
Glorious gifts today! People are talented and generous! Well deserved that must be said. Laland and it’s inhabitants give so much joy every week, a couple of days may I add! Thank you 💚🌿🌸
You always lift my spirits. I'm sure you have lifes ups and downs like we all do. Thank you for making your videos. I really think they are doing good in the world. I know they are in mine. :) oh and the painted dish....so delicate and perfect. Beautiful
Stephanie you look so beautiful today. Love your hair today. Fantastic gifts as usual. I don’t know if I missed it but you haven’t said the names of the charities you are supporting lately. Just out of interest. It’s wonderful what you are doing
I think I remember there was a package from Russia, I think it was a 'Cadeaux' in the Winter salon. How about you get a world map and put pins in the countries you receive a gift from? 🌍
Thank ya’ll for sharing all the live and joy and excitement! All the gifts are wonderful, but the earrings! Wow. What beauty! From Texas, United States, with love and light for all at LaLand 💖🥰🧚♀️🦋
You and all others at Leiande are celebrated all over the world. I've two questions: How is Jerry? I don't see enough of him and his humour and....is the chapel being restored, especially the plaster work? It is such a stunning piece of architecture.
Phillip you are the best cameraman. You always do a proper zoom on the object so we can see the details. Thanks so much for that. I loved this setting you guys are in. Beautiful part of the room and the light was perfect.
Stephanie, next time you order something from Amazon, have them attach a note that says, "Nati, this is not a present - I ordered it" 🤣🤣
💕Stephanie the top of your dress we can see looks beautiful💕You have received many beautiful books to go into your Library which I’m really looking forward to seeing💕

Stephanie The Earrings are Stunning. Beautiful Gifts This Evening. Have a Lovely Week and Stay Cool in This Heat. Xx 😘😊
I love you all so very much. Watching you is a great thing. I watch with a smile every time. Thank you so very much for your kind videos. Thank you.
The earrings are beautiful…and the Mother & Child, as you said, there is such a tenderness.
Hello Château Lalande ! Stephanie you look so beautiful with tbis beautiful dress and your hair is splendid !

They always make my mouth water 😘 beautiful gifts 🎁 ❤️
Absolutely wonderful to be so generous! However, why give to the rich, instead of feeding the poor? Just a thought!

@@laplumedematante A nice thought, La plume de ma tante. I do both with equal pleasure.
@@laplumedematante how do you know that he doesn’t? It’s none of your business how people choose to spend their money.

Not toilet! Toile

Precious” is a perfect description for the plate.
Lovely gifts. The earrings are beautifull, as are the drinking glasses in the beginning of the vlog.

Michael sent a scrumptious picnic basket!
Always wonderful gifts from wonderful people

The list of charities has not been updated since February. Please can you tell us which charities you have supported recently?
Beautiful gifts Enjoy!
Very pretty dress and very very pretty earrings ❤️
Stephanie you look so beautiful today. Love your hair today. Fantastic gifts as usual. I don’t know if I missed it but you haven’t said the names of the charities you are supporting lately. Just out of interest. It’s wonderful what you are doing
Very pretty dress Steph..
The porcelain would be perfect for the Eucharist in the chapel.
Love your bold blue nail polish, matching your dress.
Again such thoughtful gifts
Love this, there are so many artistic gems...
Never miss the gifts opening. They are all so beautiful and a real joy to watch . Thank you 🙏
I think I remember there was a package from Russia, I think it was a 'Cadeaux' in the Winter salon.
How about you get a world map and put pins in the countries you receive a gift from? 🌍
Stephanie, I do agree with Phillip, the Chateau requires a loving, loyal dog. Do consider bringing this lovely creature into your lives.
Not fair to a dog to be left when travelling..
My goodness! You guys are having Texas like weather! 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🥵 We commiserate! Yehaw!!
Thank ya’ll for sharing all the live and joy and excitement! All the gifts are wonderful, but the earrings! Wow. What beauty! From Texas, United States, with love and light for all at LaLand 💖🥰🧚♀️🦋
When humans have a healthy outlet, they can create such beauty. I love this community we have here 💕
You are a breathtaking beauty today! Realy!
Yes I am smiling❤️
Meredith’s letter was a gift in itself. Lovely! ❤️
Thank you for making these videos they make my day
Very nice gifts!!
I would say it is the virgin Mary. White being the pure collor.

You can add the salted caramel to your homemade ice creams!
Lovely items!
Greetings to all the lovely people of LaLande. It’s strangely cool in New Jersey today
All your food, books and porcelain all look wonderful, sorry I haven't been able to watch your videos, as I have been sitting my GCSE.
