Thank you so much for your lovely words🥲 they truly mean the world to us. It’s comforting to know the love and laughs in our home come through in our videos. Your message has brought such a smile to my face, thank you for taking the time to share it! Sending love to you & yours. ❤️🎄💫
As always we applaud you and Ryan for your parenting skills and for your encouragement and patience with Seth and Nancy. Your vlog was laced with all the best moments to create a lifetime of memories especially for precious Seth and his baking ventures! Love from across the Atlantic…💗
Ha ha ha…love Seth’s first cake baking mission…and he looked so happy in his quest to make his own cake …the aftermath of said mission though was even more epic …debris scattered everywhere and a testament to his efforts… ha ha ha ..and he loved doing it and eating it which is all that matters ..eh Seth 😊
Thanks for the entertainment! My first memory of baking by myself (60 years ago, ha!) is that I reread the recipe when it was in the oven and had forgotten the sugar!
Lovely video Fern and Ryan! Nice try with the cake Seth! It's the effort that counts! Don't worry, practice makes perfect! Have a wonderful week family! ❤
Fern lovely that little burner is there to keep the cheese or oil warm. You put methylated spirits in it, then light it and it goes under the pot in the stand. If you use oil it’s for cooking small cubes of meat in the pot
Ohhh Seth bless you. I think you need to do a bit of baking with Mum for basic cake making and I’m sure you will make lovely cakes. I used to bake with my granddaughter and one day my grandson said “Nanny can I bake something and I taught him how to make lemon drizzle cake and then he could make it I alone perfectly well I look forward to seeing him bake some nice things when he knows how to do things ❤
Good morning on this very chilly - 16 °C very bright snowy day. Good girl for working out. Bravo to Seth for his valiant first attempt @ 🍰 🎂 making. Flavoring & frosting can be fixed easily the next time. I was impressed that it didn't flop . It Rose beautifully. He'll know to put parchment down the next time. Nothing like experience. Cakes are tricky. Ryan's commentary on the variety at the meat counter made me giggle! Not your average selection that's for sure! The house looks festive. Beautiful tree in the corner, the little ornaments beside it on the table, and of course the gingerbread 🏠 house on the 🏝️ island . Fondue look yummy. Pretty sure you'll try different techniques for that. Thanks for the visit.❤
Wow, Seth I am so impressed with you, the fact you wanted to try and bake something is fantastic. With a little help from your mum, I am sure you will be making cakes in no time. That was some supermarket, apart from the meat section.
Yayyyyy Vlogmas ..🎄..Well done Seth wow you are amazing hope you continue to enjoy your cookery times excellent ! red onions are very healthy for us especially for our kidneys love them , Nancy is so tall now .....glad you found a good store with more choices love Sardines oh my goodness delicious ....great Vlogmas Fern Thank you very much .....🎄
So enjoyed Seth’s baking made me laugh bless him he did try 😊 Nancy has nothing to worry about she’s still 🌟 baker. Loved the supermarket shop I love a foreign shop. Really enjoy your vlogs Fern thanks so much for sharing x
(Isabel Jobe) I remember when fondue sets were all the rage, and everyone got one for a wedding present. We did! Never used it, it wasn’t as nice as yours, I think they are a bit of a novelty, but at least you have a decent pot that you can use if you don’t use it again!
Right that's done it. I've had a fondue set, still in it's box, in the useless corner kitchen cupboard for 30 years. I'm gonna get it out and use it now I've seen how good your meal looked. I just hope the 30 year old teas maid set doesn't fret when he loses his friend.
How I laught at seth baking and the mess he left but everyone has to learn and the next cake will be great.love a good supermarket and that one looked very interesting,😊xx
That cake was a noble first attempt! Maybe next time, it will go more smoothly if he studies the recipe first and treats it like a science project? Until he gets the hang of it! Thank you for the video! It was a fun vlog!
I'm thinking Seth is playing 3D Chess,because he negotiated to get that last piece of cake by saying he'd make another one. He proceeds to mess up the kitchen and the cake, thereby resulting in him probably never again being asked to make one or anything else for that matter. Checkmate!
Enjoyed your video, well done to Seth for trying with the cake bless him 😂. Wow that shop you went to looked amazing, so much choice. Our meal at the end looked tasty 😊😊❤
I did exactly the same thing Fern with the fondue, when I came to use it I didn't have the burners, which is a gel paste thing from Amazon. Good on Seth for having a go, enjoyed as always 👍
Fern love your doing Vlogmas. Watching you do Fondue may I suggest you purchase 2 set of RACLETTE cookers. It is a form of cooking, similar to fondue. It originated in Wales and Switzerland. You set RACLETTE COOKER on the table and plug in. There is a top element about 12”x5” approx you cook your meats, and vegetables on, and underneath, you slide small 4” pans is for heating small potatoes and cheese. I have 2 and that way the food is continually being cooked so you don’t have to wait so long. I cut up steak, chicken, and have shrimp etc. I place each in a separate dish on the table. You can marinate meat if you like. Then I place in separate dishes peppers, green onion, yellow, red onion, mushrooms, any other vegetables to go with the meat. Then I steam very small baby potatoes, place in a bowl, have a bowl of slices of RACLETTE CHEESE. So everything is pre cut and set on the table. Then you all sit down and place whatever YOU like on the cooker on top and place the potatoes and cheese on the bottom rack to melt cheese. It is a WONDERFUL guest or family experience. You will find you spend some real quality time interacting because while the food is cooking you have a wonderful time laughing and telling stories. My family has done this for years, I’m so fortunate to have experienced this. You can buy RACLETTE cookers online I’m sure.
Hi Fern Leclerc supermarket has a silent “C” and is pronounce Leclair( ai sounds like è).As you are doing French classes I thought this would help you ❤.I love the vlog as usual and LOOOVE when you go food shopping!!!
Oh dear...poor Seth needs some lessons from either Nancy or you Fern. At least he tried. That frosting was something? I love his curly hair. Does he get that from Ryan? Your children are growing by leaps and bounds. What a great market you went to. They have some great things there. Wonderful video. See you on the next vlog. 😀❤🇱🇷
We always did our shopping at Leclerc Juan les Pins. We loved it. It was a much smaller shop though. What about Auchan or Carrefour? Did you try them? All that weird bits of meat, they were labelled Viande pour animaux, so you can give them to the dogs. I have a neighbour who has two little dogs same breed as Sugar, and she always gives them kidneys and hearts, raw. A bit strange for me, would you give Sugar and Sylvia raw meat? By the way, Seth is a natural in the kitchen!🙂😉 He definetly needs guidance and ecouragement!☺️❤❤❤
Seth is already confident with basic cooking skills and uses them regularly. This baking attempt was just a fun, lighthearted moment we shared, not a measure of his abilities.
At least Seth tried to bake. He just needs a little help. I saw when Ryan picked up that pig tongue that I have only seen beef tongue. It's very delicious it tastes like roast beef. You just add water and boil it and seasonings. Until it's soft and tender. Tongue sandwiches are good. Bye❤
New fondue set: No tealight! Check the instructions please. You need to fill the round thingy with a modest quantity of methylated spirit, put in place, and then light it with a match. Be careful. Check the instructions again please. Have fun! BTW stir this pot only.with a wooden spoon, please! If the heat under the pot gets too hot, place the lid of the thingy on top please. The feast looked great !
To live in South of France for so many years and don’t know about that supermarket? Haha I am chocked. Are you fr Mars? 😂 It is like living in Spain and never go to Mercadona. Please 🥴
Viande pour animaux above the offal = meat for animals. Well done Seth for making a cake with no help whatsoever and being okay with the ridicule that followed. Given that he made it known that he was going to make cake, getting out the ingredients and a tin would have been a help. Sorry but I felt so sorry for him. x

OMG I want to watch Seth make more cakes !!! so wonderful to see him laugh at himself , That was a fun family video !!

Keep on baking: Keep being you!
Say hi to the rest of the family.❤🎉
Thanks for the entertainment! My first memory of baking by myself (60 years ago, ha!) is that I reread the recipe when it was in the oven and had forgotten the sugar!
😂🙈🥰
Hola. Seth made this video perfect... Love him, love you all ❤
Seth is hilarious . Kudos to his effort 👏👏
Love the buffet dinner! Yummy! Fun episode!🎄🌲🎄
Lovely video Fern and Ryan! Nice try with the cake Seth! It's the effort that counts! Don't worry, practice makes perfect! Have a wonderful week family! ❤
Love Le clerk you go in with the intention of a few things and end up buying loads. Well done Seth on the attempt on the cake. Loved watching Fern
Please encourage and teach Seth how to cook! All kids need that life skill.
Seth is so funny... 😂Lovely lad❤
Fern lovely that little burner is there to keep the cheese or oil warm. You put methylated spirits in it, then light it and it goes under the pot in the stand. If you use oil it’s for cooking small cubes of meat in the pot
Seriously- Seth is the cutest!
That's a new way of eating Fondue. But i guess it makes sense so ceyou can't all sit around a table, probably less mess too.
Ohhh Seth bless you. I think you need to do a bit of baking with Mum for basic cake making and I’m sure you will make lovely cakes. I used to bake with my granddaughter and one day my grandson said “Nanny can I bake something and I taught him how to make lemon drizzle cake and then he could make it I alone perfectly well I look forward to seeing him bake some nice things when he knows how to do things ❤

Aww that was great. I know what clip will be shown at Seth’s wedding. My first cake ❤😂. Xxx
Great video. Hope Seth is not traumatized by his baking experience. I think it's great that he just got in there and tried. Bravo Seth.
Wow, Seth I am so impressed with you, the fact you wanted to try and bake something is fantastic. With a little help from your mum, I am sure you will be making cakes in no time. That was some supermarket, apart from the meat section.

❤️❤️❤️
Good on Seth for giving it a go. How awesome xo
Also the fondue is normally eaten by fixing cubes of French bread on forks and dipping into the cheese mixture in the hot pan. Enjoy.
Well you said what I needed to hear and I did my exercises for the day
👏🏼🥰 Huge well done! ❤️
So enjoyed Seth’s baking made me laugh bless him he did try 😊 Nancy has nothing to worry about she’s still 🌟 baker. Loved the supermarket shop I love a foreign shop. Really enjoy your vlogs Fern thanks so much for sharing x

Yes the fondue should use the forks provided and cubes of food, also use oil and cook as well as cheese, fondue nut from the 80s 😂
Well done Seth……keep on with the baking xx
I like Chef Seth's preparations,the whole table full lol

We always dip our bits into the cheese pot. You forgot the sterno heating tin.

Think u dip the food into the fondue pot lol
Seth’s cake turned out great for his first time.Please teach him the necessary cooking skills to take care of himself when he is a young man.
Seth is already confident with basic cooking skills and uses them regularly. This baking attempt was just a fun, lighthearted moment we shared, not a measure of his abilities.
Oops my favourite market in France ..E Le Clerc
That’s not how you eat cheese fondue, lol
At least Seth tried to bake. He just needs a little help. I saw when Ryan picked up that pig tongue that I have only seen beef tongue. It's very delicious it tastes like roast beef. You just add water and boil it and seasonings. Until it's soft and tender. Tongue sandwiches are good. Bye❤

Noo, we’ve been to E.leclerc many times but this one is in our new area & much better! ☺️
