    Recently I was at a gathering where there was a lot of therapy talk, and someone asked if I saw a therapist. "Yes," I replied, "I see Stephanie twice a week." Their eyes widened, "That must cost a lot!" "No," I replied, "Her rates are very reasonable." And so they are. As always, Stephanie is the angel atop the Christmas tree of life. Cheers!

      Glad that expression is still being used. My mother, born in 1925, always referred to it as having her face on. Yes, Stephanie glows, with or without make-up, though I love it when she has a swipe of retro red on her lips. I can picture her in so many different eras. She exudes joie de vivre.

      You should see it when the Christmas decorations are up spanning across the whole os St Vincent’s square. Sheer magic. And real. It is like these are the places Disney get their inspiration from. But people live in those medieval houses, have shops there, hold markets every week… There is a fantastic hat maker just round the corner to the left of the cathedral. My partner and I go there every time before we head back to Zimbabwe, because his 85 year old mum loooves her hats and we can get the most fabulous creations there. The couple who run the shop welcome us like old friends by now and ask how mum is. And mum loves beating all hear friends at church turning up in the latest hat from Chalon. 😆

It is a quality I admire and also your ability to be open and fully engage with life and different experiences. I am still buzzing with the imagery from ancient Egypt and her you are immersed in the pageantry and delights of French tradition. Drooling at the sight of the food.

    A truly marvellous episode. Visiting any of the wine regions in France would make very interesting vlogs. I am most envious !

    As the song says "There is nothing like a Dame". Congratulations to you and Michael on your induction into the brotherhoods. It's almost like you were born to be in a parade, drink wine and become a Dame. So much fun to watch and I'm more than a little envious of your delicious looking meal. What a strange welcome back to France after being in Egypt.

    Aloha, Congratulations Stephanie! I’ve just recently discovered your channel and as I spent 2 years in Bordeaux when I was 5 and 6 years of age, your Chateau brings back such fond memories of my childhood. I also adore old homes and chateaus and fixing and beautifully decorating neglected treasures.Merci for following your dream and sharing your passion and strength with us.Bon chance 💜🏆 ☮️.

    What a chaotic and fun episode! I laughed so hard at the description of Michael's vow to his new brotherhood. Also that he was knighted with a gigantic pipette! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
    Your title is wonderfully funny. "Dame of the Other Chateau" 🤣🤣🤣💕
    What an adventure! And half of it you did in lobster slippers!
