Very much.
Ah, Nestor - lovely young man. And the cows and calves! Charming episode
You guys chasing after the frogs made my day.
When he bit into that turnip, all I could think of was Scarlett O’Hara chowing down on a turnip before her “I’ll never be hungry again” speech.
I'd love to see a 8 by 10 that could be framed of the bull. Great shot when he raised his head. Should look into matted and framed shots for the gift shop.
I must say that Nestor photographing the cows while trying to keep a safe distance made my day as well as Julie's turnip recipe. Only had turnips once before and was not impressed. May try this version as it looked fantastic! So enjoy your videos. All the best from Missouri.
So nice to see dad & son together.
As much as I enjoy Mapperton, I'd love to see a video of you all here in your home town with your parents Julie. That would be most fun.
Julie, I love the way you just get in there and do whatever needs doing. I love listening to you as you have so much knowledge and have a wonderful, upbeat fun personality. Thanks for the turnip recipe I will have to try that with the spices you mentioned :) Also, it was so sweet watching Luke bonding with Nestor and Nestor is awesome at photography! Great seeing Nestor in the videos. Excellent video, as usual!
You can eat the turnip leaves, too. Just steam them until tender, season with salt, pepper and olive oil. I also like a bit of vinegar. Or you can make soup.
I have to ask... Gondomar? XD
Honestly, I couldn't stop staring at Julie's boots. I love them.
Nester's photos are amazing! What an incredible young man :) Such beautiful and meaningful content! You are all a breath of fresh air here on TH-cam! I love everything you do and what you stand for. Sending blessings to you all xx
Nestor is precious. What a wonderful family you are! I don’t know how I ended up here - this is the first video I’ve ever watched from you - but I’ll definitely watch all of them.
Saw the pool cleaning! Had to come watch the plug pulling! It’s my dream to visit Englands old homes and castles.
LMAO! "Stormy! NO!" When has a cat EVER listened to a command? 😼
Even with the title, Julie and her family are some of the most real and relatable people on TH-cam. Nestor is growing into a fine young man.
Why shouldn’t they be? Believe me, the title and such a house only mean your worries and problems present themselves on a grander scale.
Nestor is a looker ….
Does Nestor have a title?
@@dm7232
His title is The Honourable Nestor Montagu I think.
The pool, and your cold plunges, are my favorite part of Mapperton - also, yeah Steve!
The turnip bit reminded me of Forrest Gump, but instead of Bubba explaining all the ways you can cook shrimp, it was turnips! Lol! ❤️
So, I know no one has a perfect relationship, but you guys are so delightful to watch together! I love the show by the way and I’m huge fan from Virginia! Can you do a mapperton recipe book?!?
Thank you and yes we will!
I suspect Julie and Luke don’t banter this hard in real life but play it up for the camera! 😳😝 You see all sides of Julie in all the different channels and pages. She can be elegant and professional as well. But I suspect some of it is played up a notch or two to make us laugh in these channels. 🙃
from Va too really enjoyed this video
@@MappertonLive yes !!! a recipe book. I would buy one.
Yes! A seasonal, historical recipe book. I would buy that. :)
The roasted turnips look delicious! Nestor and Luke taking photos of the cows was too sweet. It's a delight to follow you, thank you for sharing a slice of your lives with us.
I too hate turnips but with roasted with celery salt and rosemary sounds so much better.
@@Digeroo123 I am the opposite, I prefer fresh turnips. Raosted turnips develop an off flavor in my opinion.
Haha! The poor cat Stormy got scared when the plug was pulled out. He or she is so cute. I had one with very similar coloring.
I feel deeply vested in the swimming pool/expensive mud saga.
Ditto. I need this pool to be fixed. Love the way they share their journey to keep Mapperton alive and well!
Need this pool fixed
Hah- deep…I see what you did there :)
How can one not enjoy these episodes. This family truly is a close and caring .
What a sweet young man!🥰
I wish him all the luck in pursuing his passion for photography!
Blessings 🙏
The scene of you two chasing the frog and cat was the best. lol
Turnips are really good in Corned Beef Dinner, with cabbage, onion, carrots, celery, potatoes. You cook the meat first then cook the veggies in water with the meat. Everything absorbs the meat flavor, especially the turnips.
Hello from America! First time viewer here and NESTOR IS ADORABLE!!! If I can find the link, I will certainly buy some postcards! Keep up the good work w learning your photography craft! Please post the link for your postcards!
My favourite turnips recipe: peel and cube turnips, a few carrots or parsnips , add sume crushed ginger and a little cumin or aniseed. Fry for a minute in a spoonful of butter, add a little soysauce and a little water, then shut the lid and slowly cook till tender. Add some sourcreme or Creme fraiche. Serve with baked or boiled potatoes. Eat until you burst.
I have to buy a photo of Nester’s Cow’s. I’ll have to figure out how. I love the photo of Mama and baby. Great job Nester.
Congratulations Nestor,
on taking such Beautiful⭐️Photographs.😊
It's so nice to see an American fitting seamlessly into this very British family. AFTER the Markle debacle, I was worried that Americans would never be welcomed into England . And if they were, they would actually never fit in.
OF course, your husband is wonderful & y'all have created a wonderful son--so beautiful to see! A white mama cow & her white calf and a very blond father & his tow head son. Thanks for sharing your family, including your frogs🐸🐸 and cows🐄🐄 with us State side😊
Moo...croak...
I really enjoyed the photo shoot with Nestor. It is great how encouraging and supportive Luke is! Julia makes me smile! Thank you for sharing.
Wow, how much Nestor has grown up, since the last video. Taller, deeper voice, more chiselled features 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Keep up with the beautiful photography.
Well done
O another channel! Joy! Excited 😊 to catch up! Love it and thank you all, so very much, for sharing your lives with us! 🧡🌿🌺
Wonderful vlog. Its so enjoyable to watch your natural family conversations and you've renewed my interest in turnip. Nestor is such a nice young man.
Thank you so much!
Enjoyed this video so much! Pulling the pool plug and the cat chasing frogs all awesome. I am excited for the pool renovation, l love turnips, seeing Dad and son shooting cows was extra special fun, and the White cows are adorable.
Love love love.
Oh my word I’m crying laughing at all of your turnip options. That was the perfect Forest Gump moment… you were listing those turnip options like Bubba on shrimp! That made my day! You guys are so great.
Great job Nester!!!! Beautiful photos!
I adore this channel. The production quality is really nice! I’m so impressed. I do enjoy the dynamic of you both.
Arabella is beautiful. Stunning pictures
"And can I ask about the color?" (of the pool)😹
You guys are so down to earth and fun to watch!
The history and engineering of your pool is fascinating. I appreciated you showing the velocity of flow of the escaping pool water. The turnip recipe looks delicious. I love rosemary on roasted vegetables, on my own celery salt would not have occurred to me. Cannot wait to try this. Sign me up for Nestor's pictures. I love white cattle, something magical about them. Nestor is much braver than I am. I think his photographs are pretty special. I think Nestor is pretty special too. Enjoyed seeing father and son working together.
Oh goodness, Julie and Luke - you are well on your way to 100,000 subscribers here! Just last month it was 85K and so you are growing! I sure would buy Nestor's photos if I knew where they are sold!
my Grandfather,a dour Scotsman,
flatly refused to eat any form of pumpkin for the very same reason ....they grew it for cow fodder ..you certainly made me smile
I love turnip root cooked in peices stewed in a Lil pot with butter. Also many people eat the greens cooked . Another green cooked with the turnip green is mix in mustard green with them.
I remember eating fresh turnips from my Grandma’s garden, with a salt shaker!
So good!
I love turnips, I always put a little sugar in mine to take bitterness away. I cook the turnip greens so good!
Cute fighting over the fork.
Turnips are absolutely wonderful flavor. The ones she is picking are huge, try to pick them when the roots are a bit smaller, they taste better!
I think I did smell the pool over here..lol. Turnips aren’t my thing either but your recipe even made Luke a believer. Nestor’s photos turned out well. His business arrangement with the gift shop has been renegotiated. That was easy with Dad mentoring him. More children need to be mentored in business at a very early age. Luke is a good father.😊👋🏼🥸
I hope Julie is as nice to everyone in her staff as she seems. Remembering her Chicago roots
1st time seeing this channel. So cool. The kid is cute! He has a bright future ahead of him.
I like that the cat was supervising and waiting to rescue you if you fell in.
The frog you got to jump into the other pool will drown. It is not possible for the frog to get a setoff to jump up over the steep edges and the frog therefore will die from exhaustion by trying to stay above the surface for breathing! I recommend installing a wooden board or nylon net with steel frame at a 30 degree slope to give the frogs a chance to survive. A large stone setting which allows the frog to get a setoff for a jump out of the pool is also a solution.
Mummy and calf picture is beautiful
I love roasted root veggies. They only require oil and a touch of salt. Even when added to stews, I first caramelize them under the broiler and the flavor becomes sublime.
Surely you are aware that you two are the perfect people to take over from your parents. As seen in the intro!! Love that you are so much fun together!
My nan who would be in her 90’s use to put turnip in to her lamb shank, barley and vegetable soup. I love making it now.
I lost it when the cat found the frogs, AHAHAHHAHAHA
This is the first video I watched on this channel. I was about to skip it but glad I didn't. I remember Julie from "Ladies of London"; Julie being the only relatable one, and of course Sandwich (I had a college classmate from Sandwich, Illinois - a very small town in the outer-burbs of Chicago; that always came to mind.).
The only thing that drove me ever so slightly mad in this video - the knife Julie used to cut those turnips!
I'm really not sure why this showed up in my feed but I'm certainly enjoying it.
Looking forward to the saga of repairing the pool! Know how important it is to you. Watch you all the time from Connecticut!
The most beautiful thing in that video is that AGA stove.
Aga's are wonderful!
I look forward to seeing Steve in his new gardens!! Wonderful to see Nestor!! Congrats Nestor on making 70p!!! Love seeing Luke and Nestor together! Love from Vermont
What a lovely AGA!!!
OMG, you crack both me up. I have been watching your videos for about an hour and a half now! Thank you so much.
Always delightful! Great to see Nestor! He's got the best of both parents- Julie''s beauty and enthusiasm and Luke's wonderful voice and gentlemanly elegance! 🥰
Thank you so much!
I so enjoy watching this. Real people one could count as friends
How funny! I remember my niece eating raw turnips instead of apples when she was young. This is such a wonderful vlog. Thank you.
LOVELY FAMILY and estate. What a responsibility and four beautiful kids!? IMPRESSIVE!🙏🙏🏼✌🏼🤩
Julie you should always put olive oil in a dark bottle. Because the light makes it go bad faster. Ask any cook's. I found that out from America Test Kitchen. One of my favourite cooking show
Watching that was so much fun! I’ve also wondered how to say arboretum for years…and now I know thanks to this video.
Steve is one of my favs! He should be on a video soon again!
I love the music for the background!
I hope those turnips are grown organically otherwise I wouldn’t be eating them unwashed. I also wondered about where the water for the pool is coming from because our local lake has been really effected over the last 20 years from farmers spraying the fields around it, it’s full of algae in the summer.
I love your relationship it’s great to see your interactions.
Such a lovely video...fun and full of exciting moments..And how dear to see Luke and Nester !
Thank you so much!
every time the cooking segment starts i have flashbacks to that old show Posh Nosh . Love it :)
They should do a spoof on Posh Nosh, they are already so funny together.
Oh ho! I’ve been waiting for you to pull the plug!!! I honestly thought you’d forget!!!
Who remembers in Downton Abby when Lord Gramtham said "it's rude to take other people's help" that's what I thought when he said that he's leaving.
Great episode. My grandson also likes to.take photos and is the family's un official photographer. It's a wonderful hobby. Good luck Nestor.
Wow Nester is really growing up. His hair cut is Devine.
Another great video. It’s so fun seeing you all involved in so many activities. I must say, when Julie was listing all the various ways to cook turnips, my mind flashed back to Bubba telling Forrest Gump all about the many ways to cook shrimp! 🙂
I just watch the first few seconds, and was shocked when I heard her say that he was wrong about turnips being related to cabbage. Not only are they related, but they are really the same species. Brassica is one of those veg that has been selected for various traits over thousands of years. Collard Greens for leaves, Cabbage for the big stiff head, brussel sprouts for smaller bite sized heads, broccoli for florets, kholrabi for stems, turnips for big meaty roots, mustard for seed, horse radish for spicy roots. I am sure I even missed something here.
14:48 This one's been stepped on, but still probably good.
@9:39 (stormy) cat has the best idea lol 😅
Nestor is totally charming! Enjoying your channel very much. 🙂
Thanks so much! 😊
Wonderful episode! I know it could not have been done without the excellent supervision of Stormy the cat! I enjoy the sounds of nature and people talking and even silence in between. Could you please have no music? It really detracts from what is happening. Other than that absolutely no complaints! Glad I subscribed!
So enjoyed the cow photos, and Julie, I'm going to try that easy roasted turnip recipe--maybe with carrots, too? What do you think?
Roasted carrots are amazing! Give it a go!
Love watching work on the 18th century pool from New Jersey, USA
The cat going after the frogs made me burst out laughing
Excellent thanks for sharing 🥃
Nestor, you are so talented!! Beautiful pictures/photos!! 😍😘
Love the video Nestor in action with the beautiful cows. Wow awesome!❤️🌟
In the southern US we cook and eat the greens of turnips much like collard and mustard greens. I’ve actually never eaten a turnip before, only the greens lol great video!
I have always felt such a connection to your home. And come to find out my family originated from that area and came over to America in the later 16th century. I love watching your wonderful family. And also in a way it makes me sad because I feel like I want to go home. And I guess home feels like somewhere like that. What a blessing to get to live there! Thank you for sharing with us.
Those cows are sooooo cute!
turnip greens cooked collard greens.... purple hull peas on the side, with cornbread and purple onion. fried okra yum the BEST summer meal with a big ole glass of iced sweet tea...southern food for the soul...
Charcoal colour elasticated marble plaster, will seal this pool, you keep the original look above the water, you can also fibre line and use colour Grey moonshine gel cote, this will give it a pale turquoise colour under the waterline, marble plaster will water seal and keep the aesthetics.
Sprinkled with parmesan cheese would be yummy too😋
