This episode was very spiritual. I miss my grandparents too. My grandmother cultivated roses at her farm while raising 8 kids and growing most of their food with my grandfather. They developed and exported a particular sweet and large mango variety to the US that was named after herself in the 1940s. All their children went to college. I think the way you are living is so wholesome and all your work and efforts are the best for your children's future. I am not a farmer per se. I live and love in a city big city, but my heart is happiest when I can smell the grass, the fruits, and the flowers and wear a straw hat.
The beauty and serenity of your videos are so relaxing along with the lovely music that you choose. I look forward to a peek into your life in France each week.
Thank you for being here!
Beautiful. The scenery must be what eternity looks like.
Thank you So much 🎉
Just loving those beautiful lilac trees and your dear little garden digger/helper, Tigret ❤🐾 I can't wait to see the new kitchen.
As always I enjoyed my visit with you today even though we are continents apart. The scenery and the colors are breathtaking and your sweet personally is always a pleasure to be with. Thank you for sharing and hopefully the zinnas will do well and you will have such pleasant memories of your grandmama.
Marloes, your lilac trees are so beautiful! I always enjoy a walk through the French countryside. I love seeing the cows and sheep!🐑 I’m so sorry for the loss of your American grandmother!!
Heerlijk en prachtig❤
Just love those slow, nourishing pictures! The cows and your cat, that are so attentive❤.
Merci pour cette agréable vidéo avec cette belle région à bientôt💓💓💓
The cows are so different from what I see in the Northeast of the US. I don’t know of any place within hours of travel that have so few cars on the road. Most of the towns once quiet have fallen to development as suburbia spreads north each year. Your home, food, environment and disposition are so tranquil and beautiful. Thank you for a relaxing view into your life.💗.
Marloes, this was such a relaxing video and made me instantly feel peace. Your walk at the end filled me with joy, it felt like I was there and those sweet sweet cows always make me smile.
Happy to hear this! ❤️
Thank you for this special, tranquil video. Charcuterie board looks delicious and the walk at the end was lovely.❤
Thanks!
Marloes, You are amazing.....Your creativity with food and what you cook and prepare is fantastic!! My mouth waters as I watch you prepare your wonderful recipes......Have you made a cook book with your recipes? The scenery you show in your recent video is breath taking.....How lucky you are and I love your cat!!!
Thank you so much! Yes I actually did make a cookbook and I just went to look for the link to it on Amazon and saw they put it on sale at the moment! I don’t know until when that will be as I have no say in that but hope you can benefit from it! www.amazon.com/taste-French-Country-Life-Heartwarming/dp/2487275006/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=31B3YT13Z4K0X&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.1ZdLRTHCUqi6E88U6_kUaRRjEhke0d9UWId4w5e6H7oGamgmcFh_C7XzPgOvWj1HoZPJdjGRxfhT8XVPxcNhsuTVZdBJzTnxCblMhusKk1eGufjhRokSnm_ULhoL75IZNQqom99LmFCxoT0PTFvpP5022BjiPJMcXSyi0gQ3SMfw6oHAadkCqBz5ekb_c8errOEv_OdQx_9Lio8YCQOjyw.ktmXc2Wj2UxKr-kI_NqL4Dgr8sNBfnPZ7zNpA8-yfrA&dib_tag=se&keywords=a+taste+of+french+country+life&qid=1714150789&sprefix=%2Caps%2C132&sr=8-1
Her cookbook is amazing. I bought two! One for me and one for a friend. Highly recommend.
What a lovely video. What a spectacular place you are living in. The scenery with the white cows and lush green landscape in the background is stunning. How very beautiful the church bell calling out .....
Just lovely
Thank you
How blessed are we to live on such a beautiful planet ❤ your food looked really yummy thsnks for sharing ❤️🏴x
Wat is het toch mooi dit landschap.
Beautiful lifestyle and stunning scenery. Thank you for sharing that with us. Your meal creations and presentations are amazing.
My pleasure!
Good luck 🍀💚
This was beautiful!
Zennias are the easiest flowers to grow. Just sew the seeds around the end of May and in a couple of weeks they will start to come upm you don't have to start inside. I order my seeds from American Meadows online. And they last year to year kept in a tightly closed jar in a dark closet
(Insde of course). Good luck!
Thanks! Yes I know I can just sow them in the garden but the birds sometimes pick them up or the wind blows them away and I wanted to be sure which ones were grandma’s ones as I am going to put it other ones as well. I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to distinguish them afterwards. Thanks for sharing though!
It might be easier to grow the special varieties directly in the ground you can put up markers and then transplant them .. at least that way you have more that might survive.. I’m not much of a gardener. I’ve just learned from trial and error 😊 love your videos. They’re so informative and wonderful and just so relaxing!!
Wow so much hail! And one can never get tired of those post card views.
Thank you so much for the pastoral scenes. I have been going through some rough times lately and seeing the lovely French countryside eases my heart and quietens my mind. Your vlog is truly beautiful.
I am truly so happy to hear my videos help you experience more tranquillity and ease ❤️ Take care!
Magnificent! Liz
Those church bells❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful scenery, just the calming things I needed tonight. Thanks
Lovely
OMG...How blessed you are to be living in Bourgogne! Your presentation on your chacuterie and fresh veg and fruit was masterful, Marloes. You are gifted to be sure. It's always refreshing to see cooks who know when enough is enough with garnishes and allow the food to be upfront and present. Just beautiful.
Thank you!
Your Lilacs look so Beautiful
Oh, this is lovely. You make wonderful meals for your guests but I confess I could not eat anywhere near as much as you prepare. I see you are cooking for two but each person’s meal would feed me for more than a day. And the charcuterie store, and the cheeses! Oh my! Such abundance! Beautiful countryside.
Yes I make the meals quite big hoping they can save some for lunch as well if it’s too much 😇
Beautiful ! Thank you !
My pleasure!
❤❤❤ magnifique
Merci
All of that food looks luscious, and what a gorgeous, peaceful walk; each frame is like a landscape painting.
Thank you
Your videos are like meditation to me 💗💗💗
I am so happy to hear that ❤️
What a walk. Exquisite.
Your videos are just wonderful thank you 🙏
Thank you for being here!
So amazing to always see your video notifications. It makes me stop to live in the moment. I take a time out to visit peacefulness out of chaos. Be well Xo
So happy to hear you enjoy my videos!
I look fwd to a kitchen reveal, but I LOOOVED this video of the food & sceneries. Hope you get your vehicle fixed 🙈 Although, I enjoy the walks. 🤭 I'm all about these videos. Thank you for sharing your life with us. I am watching from a small city in Oklahoma USA 🇺🇸 and love getting to see France. ❤
Thank you
This the sort of beauty that when you wake up in the morning you are tempted to say I hope my car breaks down today! And all captured so expertly by you!!!
Haha! That's a nice way to look at things!
La Bourgogne est une magnifique région, et je pense la même chose que vous avec la voiture en panne ! 😉
Just beautiful, thank you. We were in Paris a couple of weeks ago and experienced some beautiful spring weather and yes, a brief hail storm 😁
I just love your videos. Can’t wait to get back to Burgundy some day. 🇫🇷
This was a beautiful Vlog! The food scenes were as gorgeous and inspiring as the walk. Thank you for finding a way to bring us something - so regularly. Can’t wait to see your new kitchen! Enjoy your time with family. ❤
Thank you!
So lovely as always! The meals and charcuterie board you prepared for your guests look so delicious-how lucky your guests are! I love the walk to the garage, too. It’s fun to see the landscape change with the seasons. I hope the van is ok! And last,but not least, my condolences on your grandmother’s passing. May she rest in peace.
Thank you! The van will be ok, thank you.
Tant que les "saints de glace" ne seront pas passés le temps sera incertain et surtout il y aura risque de froid et de gelées (11 - 12 et 13 mai). Alors patience ! vous me donnez envie de manger du fromage et de la charcuterie avec du pain de campagne bien croustillant et un bon vin de Bourgogne 🤪 Mon grand-père était bourguignon !!
Oui oui je ne les planterai qu’après les Saints de glace. Je les garde au chaud pour le moment 🌱 Merci!
The music reminds me a bit of Johann Johannsson and Max Richter ('On the nature of Daylight')
Congratulations on your cooking skills which are well demonstrating our daily life meal processing. Something American should move for to get a better life
really beautiful!
So beautiful, you are one lucky lady, I am so envious
😇
You have the most beautiful scenery in all of France. It’s funny how the cows always stare at you😅. Beautiful video as usual.❤❤❤
That has to be the most handsome bull I have ever seen! The video was just beautiful Marloes.. 🙏🌸🌸
I know! I love how the bull, the mama’s and the babies are all together in the field. ❤️
Lovely video ❤
Hi Nice compound love the serenity involved and such lovely music makes one feel soo relaxed thanks for sharing such enriched Moments cant wait for next video for the kitchen outcome Will be also lovely take care blessings ❤️❤️❤️

Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸 Beautiful sceneries in the countryside. Nice video🌷
Thank you
Your food looks amazing and I’m sure tastes even better 😊
The food looks amazing ❤️avocado omelette I will try on Sunday. Another chilled video merci a vous 😊
Thank you! Try to find some wild garlic and put it in your omelette egg mix
I forgot to mention in your latest video how I love that you show the cows and the sheep every now and then, in the green pasture, and the nature is just amazing, are those yellow flowers mustard? Thank you for sharing Marloes.
Those yellow flowers were canola but we do have many mustard fields in this area as well!
Beautiful. I love your videos
Thank you
Prachtig filmpje en je bordjes zien er overheerlijk uit 👌👌👌
Dank je!
Love your videos. Love the earthenware vessels. Re brocante shopping, please show more copper pots, and cast iron pots. I use plain cast (no enamel) at home, but am interested in enameled, too. Plan to buy in Perpignan, so am very interested in this ‘pré-shopping’. You have great ideas.
Thanks! I don’t often find copper and cast iron else I would definitely film them!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
خلق فأبدع
❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Thank you. So very beautiful and you are a genius in the kitchen. recipes? cheers
Why do I always get so hungry when I watch your videos :)
I was asking the same thing; why do I always get hungry while editing my videos?! 😂
Wow! these guests are being spoiled! Look at all that good food!
😇
Ontzettend genoten van je video Marloes! Schitterende beelden samen met de mooie muziek! De schoonheid van de natuur is zo overweldigend dat je gewoon moet huilen! Tigrette is intens gelukkig dat kun je zien! Bedankt Marloes! Het beste gewenst voor jou en je gezin en een fijn weekend! We hopen dat het meevalt met je auto! Groeten vanuit Nieuwkoop!
Dank je wel!
HOLA🌷👍
Dove abita signora... è bellissimo
This is Burgundy, in France.
Iedere keer je kat vergeten te melden ik vind ze zo mooi en zo lief ❤❤❤
I am a student currently studying in Besancon and would like to take a day trip maybe this week to Beaune. I have heard it is a small but pretty town. Do you have any specific recommendations for things to do or see while there for a few hours? Thanks for the nice, relaxing videos :)
Hi! Yes it is small and charming. Better not come on a Monday: many shops and restaurants are closed so it gives a bit of a deserted vibe. Definitely visit the hospices de Beaune! And strolling through the streets and following the remparts is beautiful!
@@FrenchCountryLife Merci pour vos conseils 🙂
