I love that Lancelot and Ruby are friends 😍
That was lovely to see.
I was just going to say the same! So cute.
Maybe now Ruby can come inside???
@@405Marlena That would be so nice.
I thought I heard some hissing 😊 from Ruby
Stephanie, you’re lucky to have a skilled wood craftsman like your cousin. He’s really amazing.
Amary is great but he always looks so uncomfortable as though he can barely stand to be there and interact but I am glad he is able to just be himself
@@zat6442 He has repeatedly said he loves working at the Chateau. He's just not over fond of being on camera.
@@crae3422I can relate, hate a camera being pointed at me!
... "Speak of the angel" ...should always be the phrase when encountering this very handy ...man!! 😉
Amaury is amazing. He seems to be working always. I hope he’s getting some down time. He’s a very talented man.
Quite heavy, but I found out last year I can’t have my own children without risking death and my sister just announced she’s pregnant with her third. My months of healing unraveled, but back when I was sick and now, I’ve turned to Chateau Diaries for a beautiful example of child free adults living with family, friends, and adventure. I haven’t known many if any child free/childless people and I hope Stephanie sees this and sees the value of living a happy life for someone like me ❤️
@Apostrophe4035 I’m sorry.. sending you so much ❤ compassion to wherever you are. It feels unraveled for right now, it’s hard to imagine right now but it will mend back together and likely stronger. You’ve done the really hard work of what’s entailed on the journey of healing. It isn’t lost, it’s temporary. I wanted you to know you aren’t alone in that feeling, details may be different but the emotion/feeling we all share/experienced. In this now moment it’s hard and its totally fine to be just that whilst watching these vlogs that have been a supportive outlet for you. Only you know what is truly needed for you right now. Stephanie’s channel does so many things for so many people and for many different reasons. Much love to you and huge warm hug.
Thank goodness no one was hurt from that stone falling.
I was thinking the same thing. That at least was a blessing.
Ruby and Lancelot are so cute together! Amaury’s wooden worktop looks great and will be very functional for all who cook at LaLande. Thanks Stephanie🙏❤️
Instead of drawers under the work surface, how about just leave them open for storing cutting boards?
Or trays?
Pull out boards, they will increase the working surface area and you can rim them for trapping liquid
For now, rimmed baking sheets to use as pullout trays for small items.
I thought that too
What Amaury did in the kitchen is nothing but amazing! Maria you are going to be cooking away this season. Well done!
Marie
Why bother with drawers under the new wooden butcher block top? It is the perfect place to keep cookie sheets, baking sheets and trays.
Brilliant!
Yes. And chopping boards!
Great idea!
Helps with hygiene if underneath is sealed from the food prep area on top.
Draws will help with this and provide organised easy access to what is kept there.
...or perhaps thin & wide sliding bins that fit the profile under the working surface ...or perhaps one large drawer for knives & the other side for trays and cooking sheets &/or cutting boards, etc.
Very lucky no one was under it when it fell. I think all the stones should be checked for everyone’s safety.
That space under the new oak counter would be PERFECT for trays. No need for any more carpentry. Just slide them in. You must use lots of trays to ferry dishes out to the dining room. How wonderful it would be to have them so close at hand. 🇨🇦
Dont over complicate the space under the new wooden work surface - just leave it open so that Marie can put metal flat baking trays under there, so that they are readily to hand when she is prepping food.
I also am amazed that that piece of stone came all the way out and the phone line didn’t break first. What the heck do the French use for phone lines 😂😂. It so sweet to see the two babies getting along like good friends ❤ . It was wonderful to see Davy and the food looks amazing. Have a wonderful time at the charity event.
You can use trays instead of drawers
Great idea!
Please I want to see more Ruby and Lancelot together. I hope Ruby is receiving the love and affection that he deserves
The best to see RUBY and Lancelot walking together. 💖💖🙏🙏
No matter what the situation is you never get flustered or fed up, queuing requires the right attitude. Loved the colour of your nails, great to see Davy again. That food looked delicious. 💕🇦🇺
Did anyone else see Lancelot chewing on a box while Stephanie was telling us about the sponsorship.? He was so cute stays by her all the time ❤ he’s so cute 🥰
OMG - that block was huge! How on earth didnit stay up there for all those yrs and no mortar 😮
Lovely to see Davy 😊
Amaury did a wonderful job on the kitchen counter. That gives me ideas for my kitchen.
How about keeping serving trays under the new stove wood counter. You can even prepare hors d'oeuvres on trays before an event and keep under the counter, keeping the kitchen table for prep. Just a suggestion.
These must be out of order because you had those newly painted orange nails yesterday at Dan’s! Pretty!
Think about using some of the space between the old cooker and the new counter for cutting boards.
STEPHANIE, your and Dan vlog at his chateau with his two border collies was over the top, I couldn't get enough of it, super super !!!!
Amaury built a wonderful new work surface for Marie et al. !!! It actually looks Great and hopefully extremely user friendly! I'm happy Marie and Lancelot are such dear Friends! He is a happy little man!
Lancelot is such a happy boy 🐾❤️.
That new countertop surface makes such a big difference, in look and function. Along with the deep cleaning the ladies just completed, the kitchen is looking great. A touch of paint and new handles on the cupboard would make a huge impact and could be completed in a day or two!
Lovely to see Ruby and Lancelot hanging out together xx
I’m loving the friendship that has developed between Sir Lancelot and Ruby, so sweet. I think the new wooden bench is going to look fantastic…….Wow it does look beautiful! The gap could be used for trays or wooden chopping blocks for now.
The country side is looking so lush, a lot different to West Australia at the moment. X Anna
Crazy about that big stone 😮! Thank goodness no was hurt by it.
I would buy some nice flat baskets to slide under the counter. 🦋
That new work surface is fabulous. Amuary is always meticulous. I know how Marie feels, the work bench has to be higher to avoid back strain.
😊 Yes, Amaury did an amazing job as usual on that new worktop👍. Stephanie's fortunate her cousin is a 🪚craftsman🔨.
😉Think it's so cosy & charming in 🇫🇷 French and 🇬🇧 British kitchens to have a dining table in the center of the room.
🤔Although as a taller woman, a traditional table would NEVER work as prep space for me. It would kill my back bending over that low🤣.
Love cooking & baking bread too💛, but I hate😖 facing a 🧱wall to do my chopping, mixing, etc. I'd rather do my labor at an island facing out w/👁👁sightlines around the room.
🤓Would raise the table to counter height⬆️ and swap🔁 the chairs for stools w/backs. It wouldn't be such a sacrifice since they have OTHER places to dine. Yet it would still allow a place for 👥️️folks👥️️ to comfortably congregate for a
🍵cuppa☕️ or family meal 🍽.
👩🍳Most restaurant kitchens I've been in are rather crowded & chaotic places with lots of mad activity🧑🍳. For the number of guests & residents in the Chateau, there are times they NEED multiple cooks & kitchen workers. For that, extra prep space is a top priority.

How wonderful to see Davey! I hope that he will be spending more time at La Lande this summer!
You guys need to train those roses around the gazebo posts in the veg garden! They are flopping over and should be trained before they snap in the wind!! :)
When I checked on Google (and therefore must be true) I found that in the UK it is a splash back. In Canada it is a back splash and on the side is a side splash. In any case, none of us are wrong!
back splash for the US too.
@@avioncamper it is splash back in New Zealand!
Splashback in Australia too.
Splashback in Ireland too, predictably.
Might be a good idea to have a safety check of all the chateau stones and mortar. That stone being unsecured and thus falling could have killed someone. Scary.
A worker working on the roof fell off and died. Happened last year.
@@NoOneHere2Day I thought that happened in the chapel
@@denyseleonard240 No.
Why was there no mortar holding the stone in place?
@@NoOneHere2Daythat was the chapel incident.
It is always nice to see Ruby. 🧡 Also, I’m glad to hear that Lancelot has learned who is boss. 🐈
About those drawers. In the meantime find some nice thin wicker trays to lay items in. The top looks beautiful. Love you all ❤
Think trays are an excellent idea. The drawers for that space would be far too thin to hold much of anything. Seems like a great deal of work for very little and Amaury has more than enough to do.
That is a good idea for the trays!!
I think this is the perfect way to utilize the space. More rustic looking, you can put magnetic strips inside to hold knives securely and neatly.
Great idea! Baking trays would also work well and could easily have magnets to hold knives in place.
It’s lovely seeing Ruby with Lancelot. He seems to like some dogs. I remember him often lying next to Diesel. A lovely Vlog with lots going on. ❤
I miss Diesel. He was so loyal and patient and cute riding in Selmar's bike basket with his ears flapping in the wind!
@@katelanxner278 I wish that they could come back for a visit. I really miss them. 💜
Davey is such a lovely man. Always nice seeing him
Amaury is amazing. He’s always working. Hope he gets some time off. His work is so skillful
Oh no, Lancelot peed on one of the plants @ 2:30😂😢there goes that one
Marie needs to write a Lalande cookbook. All of the guests favorites and pairings.
Great idea. And maybe Micheal petherick could illustrate.
As a chef and a woodworker I would suggest not putting in draws. The spaces would work wonderfully as an open shelf to store utensils. Covered so less dust but right at hand for quick access.
I can't belive you were passing by my old university in London, seeing Granary Square made me very nostalgic and happy. Also I hope Dishoom is still as good, I remember the food there was delicious :)
From Vancouver 🇨🇦
All my love to Lalandé
There are never simple jobs in a chateau, the only choice is how we choose to experience it....
The Stephanie Solution...
Get a cup of tea..
❤😂😂😂❤
"Keep calm and carry on!"
The butcher block work space that Amuary built is beautiful.It does go with the rest of the kitchen.I notice others are mentioning great storage space for cookie sheets,cutting boards.No drawers needed.Thank goodness no one was near the stone that fell.Maybe it was a blessing in disguise that it came down when it did.❤
Slim drawers might be practical for knives but, will take a while as can be fiddly and time consuming. I Thought of Amury recently when clearing lots out from my dads carpenter garage. He did his carpenter apprenticeship in the early 50’s and had lots of old tools from his teacher before then too. He had lots of new ones over the years too and we found about twenty saws and a hardware shop style wall of boxes screws clamps etc ! Most things from his sheds have gone to good homes but the house roof is still semi
Lined with some extra wood he collected - just in case it came in handy for a job :) ! Hope in future the new house owners enjoy diy !
Love seeing Ruby and Lancet together 😻😻😻😻😻So happy they are friends. Hope the fallen stone can be repaired 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great to see Davy again. Trying to imagine how on earth that stone will be reset??? Sandi x
Id think about a magnetic strip on the wall over the new counter top to hold the knives . You can always store the most used roasting and baking trays in the oven underneath and save Maries legs. a simple shallow tray could then go underneath the work top to store anything else needed.
Having been on the receiving end of something coming down from the top of a house, and missing my head by inches, I have been left with lifelong neck and shoulder pain - please can someone check the masonry at the top.
Amaury rapping: great when you're lost in your own singing world!
Good to see the dog and cat at Le Lande get along.
Lancelot, your mom is traveling again...lol.😂
Thankfully you have Ruby 🐱as a friend. ❤😍
...if Lancelot were a human child your comment would make sense... besides Lancelot has plenty of love, walks, and attention from Marie, and many others I'm sure.
@@kindlydude If you had a sense of humor you would not post this comment.
I have a suggestion. Amaury could make wood liners for inside the ovens which would make space without having to do anything to the ovens. somewhere to store something.
Stephanie, I absolutely love that red top you were wearing at the chateau, it really suited you so well.
I don't know exactly what the people who are working in the courtyard are up to but there sure seems to be a lot of drama and danger around them. I hope they can be much more careful and safe for all concerned.
Maybe lil trays for scraps/veggies that have been cut under the work surface ? So you can just swipe them off into there while working and discard them in one go from the tray later...
......Brilliant ...or another slide-out cutting board ...they're so convenient!
Amaury is such a great carpenter...another job well done! Enjoy your time in London!
Amaury never disappoints! Beautiful works as always. Wow that stone that came off the roof, was definitely a surprise eh? So glad no one was hurt. Enjoy your trip Steph, was great seeing Davey again.
Instead of the hassle and complication of fitting drawers under the new workspace - you could immediately put some shallow trays in that space to store knives (or whatever) on the trays to slide in and out. Note - this is just for efficiency for Marie - not necessarily Philip’s magazine design aesthetic! 😂
I was watching Lancelot eating and playing with something while Stephanie was talking about her UFO3 😄looked like a ring box ......
Tell Davy we Love💜 the gardens🌿 at CLL and CC. Such great work.
Wow, thankfully nobody was hurt by that stone! 😮
What a beautiful workspace for Marie, wonderfully done! 👌
Thank you so much for all the joy! 🫶💞🫶
Amaury did a wonderful job on the work top! Enjoy London ❤️
Amary was very polite to you. The drawers are not practical. The thickness of the wood used to build the drawer would take up more space than you would save.
The wooden bench top looks fantastic 👏👏How wonderful to see Davey again!
That song was perfect in ..somethings gotta give..
Curious, how many times a year do you fly out of that airport 🛫?❤
Hi Davey 👋 Enjoy your UK visit ❤😊🇦🇺
Such alot happening ,that new work space is wonderful.Small flat baskets would work until more permanent drawers can be added.Lancalot and the kitty are about the same size and it's great they like each other.I had a cat and dog that were great friends,the dog would get into the bed with the cat and her kittens,it was adorable. Mama kitty had to get me to say get out Kam Su and let mama kitty have her babies.kamsu was a pekingese.
I hope Mommy gets to visit soon & see the garden transformation.
Oh stephanie merci for showing ruby he is part of lalande see lots of us areappy to see him he put wait on nice to see Lancelot friends with him merci😊
I think a good check around the chateau would be a good idea as you don't want an accident to happen. So cute to see Ruby and Lancelot as being buddie.
Excited to learn more about the fundraiser. Enjoy London
HI Have you thought of changing the doors on the pantry in the kitchen? It looks well worn where people open the doors. You could put decorative screen doors on or place tiles where people put dirty hands to open it. Just a thought as you are putting in the nice work surface.
Another lovely vlog from LaLande, thank you Stephanie.⭐️👋
Beautiful work Amury😊
As a chef I love the extra work surface, it looks grate and will change addressing food preparation and service. Well done again Amaury! So nice seeing Lancelot & Ruby becoming friends. The walled garden and the gazebo is looking beautiful. The guest where clearly happy. I cant wait to return to my London.
Trays as temporary drawers?
Billy will be glad to know its a splash back.
splash back always makes me laugh. It means something completely different where I come from. splash back 😂
You could get some trays to slot under that new worktop for now.
Glad to see no one was walking around below when the stone fell and I think the rest should be checked to see they are not loose. Seeing Lancelot and Ruby together is so sweet, would love to see more of them together on your walks Stephanie. What was the name of that Indian restaurant you went to in London, I would like to go there when next in London. Amuary is very talented and I agree with some of the comments below, leave it as is as Marie could use the space to put flat baking trays there as she is using them. Have a lovely day.
I can't believe you are going away yet again.why would anyone want to leave such a lovely place.
It is for Charity, and she is meeting Nic and Michael Potts.
@@carolinegooder7091 ☹🤣
When you were on DAN'S balcony you should have sung "Don't cry for me Argentina"
Stephanie seems always on her way some were.
Hello Davey! Always so good to see you.
Amaury 'singing'. So, so hilarious!!
I love bread boards. You pull them out when you run low on counter space. Always a clear space and so convenient.
Be a friend to your garden when walking by pull a weed. It's beautiful, what type of garden can you see from the deck. That's a place to put something you can see from above
Like the others I suggest no drawers. No cook wants to keep touching drawers.
I'm glad that the stone didn't hurt anyone. Does that wing date back to the 1800s? How will the stone be put back and when? At least it wasn't worse. Ruby is so much bigger than Lancelot. Such a big tomcat.😊 I'm happy for Marie about her new work space. She should ask around about pull out trays for storage stuff. Maybe Stephanie can check out a kitchen store in London. Lovely quick hop to London for Charity work. Now, I want a Scot egg for breakfast and real Indian food. ❤
Omg, Amaury was singing to my bestest singing song too😂 🤣
I have had dogs and cats that were best friends too. So cute.❤
So happy to see that Lancelot and Rubis are becoming friends. I feel sad for Rubis because I never see someone pet him or show him some affffection or love. It is not enough to feed him, he needs some love as well ( of course, being a cat lover I have to recommend some love and afffection for him ). He is well fed and that is great but humain love is fantastic for him. Anyway I am sending love to Rubis and Lancelot today ❤❤
Because it's not featured in vlogs doesn't mean it doesn't happen.
Perhaps you are right. Never the less I can only mention and be concern about what I see on the vlog which is people petting the dogs, loving them, allow them into the house ( kitchen, bed even in their arms while sitting at the table ) but I never never saw Rubis inside even on the very cold winter months ! Therefore, I find it only normal to be concerned about Rubis not being pet and receiving love, being warm even have a nice warm bed while Lancelot Walsh over a soft warm bed and he is granted so much affection and love. Only normal
@@rosalindhambleton9012 You must know, and it's pointed out again and again, he's a feral cat. Not a domestic pet. So yes, he's out living in the woods where he wants to be, not where humans decide he should be.
Stephanie is allergic to cats hair. Therefore no cat may come inside the chateau
@@rosalindhambleton9012my family has had many farm cats over the years and it’s important to know that not all cats want to be held, cuddled, or indoors and Ruby may be one of those. We’ve had a number that tolerate pets and holding in a rather feuding way and would rather just hang out in your vicinity. It’s important to take those cues from the kitty and allow them that space!
Another fantastic episode! Really feeling the old Chateau Diaries vibes again. I think you've got the right cast of characters featured, and the right content. I hope to see more of them.
Stephie, Stephie! Pay attention! Lancelot is chewing on your charger while you praise your facial creme! LOL! OH NO!
You can use the space under the new counter for cookie sheets, cutting boards and other flat items, without building drawers. Could even line a cookie sheet with felt and store knives on them. Cheers!
The oak counter turned out so beautiful. That is so creative 👏🏾👌🏾😍😍😍
Amaury has done an amazing job!!! Just a thought - on the left that is just raised a touch - it looks like there's a cabinet interior there. What if you make that cupboard there as a pull-out drawer with a garbage bin where you can put all the compost material as you're cutting/preparing?? If it's deep enough, you could put in two bins to separate the compost as well. I had one of these in my kitchen and it was so handy! The cupboard door does not swing open, it pulls out like a drawer but looks just like the rest of the cabinetry... I know, clear as mud, right? lol
Lovely! Bad luck with the stone, so lucky no one was anywhere near it! Love the worktop - beautiful.
Maury is a genius. Each time someone is shown preparing food at the kitchen table I think about their backs being strained bending over so low. I wondered if a large chopping board with legs could be made by Maury to place on the kitchen table. My second suggestion would be to add one of those warming units with shelves to the area over the unused stove that restaurants have to keep food warm until served. Very helpful when preparing multiple dishes. Love the friendship between Lancelot and Ruby 🐾🐾
Amaury. Spell check kept changing the spelling😮
