I would love to see a video of what a stay as a guest at Lalande looks like. Is there a schedule? What sort of activities go on near the chateau that they entertain themselves with? How long are guests usually there?
The b&b is only open Thurs to Sunday. The two gites can be booked for longer as they are self catering. Lalande is very rural and prior to Covid I think guests only stopped there for a night or two on the way to somewhere else. Now its a destination for Chateau Diaries and Chateau DIY fans
😉 Yes, that is a hoot. As was seeing his expression😳 when Vegan popped up in relation to the sweet treats🍌. Amaury is so adorable. It's lovely that he's taken on the daily watering💦 project too. 😃 It's always exciting when ppl discover the satisfaction of puttering outdoors in a 🌳garden🌾. To each his/her own on 💪labor saving devices. Like Nick-the -tree-surgeon with his brilliant firewood🔥 splitter. 🤗 Consider myself a gadget girl. Love spiralizers, choppers, mandolins, etc. for chips🍟 , other 🥕veggies🥒, & 🥚hard boiled eggs. Also in ❤️love with "set it & forget it" small kitchen appliances like instant pots, slow cookers, rice cookers, air fryers, sous vide, bread machines, mixers, blenders, ice cream makers, & so on. 😎 Plus〰️in LA w/o an air conditioner〰️ a lot of those gizmos also keep you from having to overheat 🥵 the house by turning on the oven when the mercury rises🌡. 💚 Bridget from Cali ☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)
Nah… I think my hubby has all the tools ever made, he says No but how many screw drivers n hammers and saws and blades and clamps and drills and batteries for drills and nail guns manual and air driven and sanders and dust collectors and metal cabinets and jars and jars and jars of different types of nails or screws or left over parts or in our case a 40 foot square room of eco tic wood collected by his grandfather does 1 man need?
I love that Stephanie doesn’t take what she’s got for granted. She’s always expressing how grateful she is and seeing the bright side of everything. It makes the videos so uplifting!
I really liked the little moment at the beginning that showed you trying to organize your thoughts and what you wanted to say. All those moments usually get edited out but it's always fun to see the normal human side.
@@steffaniel370 yes, you missed it, it’s already been fixed, it was a short slip of her walking & contemplating on what to say, very behind the scenes clip, Philip probably edited this one because it’s the first time I’ve ever seen a mistake like this lol
I admire Amaury’s new found love for gardening and his dedication to watering the new plants. A chateau shop is a wonderful idea and knowing your and Philip’s impeccable taste it will certainly do well. I would like to see how Maria made the charming tomato appetizer. Thanks for the magic Stephanie🙏🏻❤️
a friend of mine used to serve large Tomatoes stuffed with cream cheese, prawns and garlic. amazing she could cut them around the middle vertcally ad scoop out the middle, mix a little of that in the mixture.. theflesh not the seeds and pile the filling back in and put the lid on. Lovely as a cold starter or many at a buffet.
Seeing everyone eating together & cooking such tasty looking food warms my heart. The shop looks so much larger than when Marie used it. What a great room.
My 1st live! Yay! Stephanie I love your life, your enthusiasm and pure joy for living. Most of all I love that you are selflessly sharing it all with us and those lucky enough to be there at LaLande with you.
Perhaps you should fit a retractable awning over the pergola on the terrace. You will have shade and cover in the rain. You would get a lot more use out of the terrace.
I do agree but maybe Stephanie likes the open style … I wonder if she has mentioned if that is the way she likes or she never thought of covering during Summer time 🤷♂️
Having watched all of the regular Chateau Diaries, it is both fun and so very inspiring to see all the transformations now, they are happening soooooo quickly! Love, love, love the cleared out entranceway and hallway, love the cleard out and sorted attic area, LOVE IT ALL! The inspiring bit comes in with it inspires me to clear out things as well. I try to get one thing a day OUT of the house, aka my ome bedroom apartment.
Now I see how a childhood playing with Playmobil is perfect training for life as a chatelaine. Many new chateaux ventures seem to begin with 1. Assign room another purpose, 2. Clear room of items to Emmaus, 3. Play musical chairs (relocate useful objects to another room), 4. bring in yet another wardrobe from Narnia. Looking forward to what relocates to the shop (and how many of those objects are imprinted with woodland creatures).
I Love this idea of a shop filled with antiques and vintage beauties from made in France things and some postcards from the Chateau. Everything is coming all together perfect.
I've loved every evolution that room has gone through: Thomaz's hilarious and stylish Salon and then Marie's truly lovely Floral Studio, so I'm sure I will love this latest re-encarnation! I really do miss Marie so much, and Thomaz's hilariousness + energy were so fun whilst he was there.
The focused story format is working really well! I admit that seeing Marie’s workshop turned into a shop is wistful for me. I was really hoping that Marie would come back and stay long term. Of course my perspective is outside of the actual interactions and relationships at Lalande and I wish Marie the best. I just miss the unique sparkle she contributed to the community at Lalande. Miss the flowers and the creative meals and the self awareness workshops and the rambles for wildflowers. Best wishes to everyone. I’ll never forget those quarantined months were the highlight was the smaller Cast of characters making joy in the midst of difficult situation and sharing with all of us. Thank you!
I think all the men in this vlog have to be hired actors. I have never met so many kind, gentlemen of all ages. Either Stephanie is a magnet for them, or they are actors hired for their exceptional good looks and willingness to act like the nicest men ever.
This is hilarious because my Austrian and I do this all the time. We dive into one project and get distracted by another project and then wind up making ice cream and cake. Loved the log splitter! Continue living the marvelous adventure! 🦋💜🌸
I'd love for you to do an episode on introducing everyone who lives and works at the Chateau, give an insight into what they do in a day, and what the volunteer roles are etc. You have probably already done this and I've missed it, I'm just fascinated on how everything comes together and the running of the Chateau
You have certainly inspired me, in your clean-up - I have decided that tomorrow I will start cleaning out some boxes that I have had standing since I cleaned up after my mother's death, it's about to be on time, I will send it for recycling, not to be thrown away. Thank you very much for the inspiration, I have an advantage, here in Denmark it is only about 20 ° - but you are 2 - I only 1 - and I will be 74 'on the 20th next month. Good work ethic !!
I googled how long does chutney last unopened and this what I got: "Properly stored, an unopened jar of chutney will generally stay at best quality for about 2 years." LOL
💖👑👑🎬🎥📽 I think Nick the tree surgeon has become a masive part of this project .He is one of them people who you didnt realize you needed has much has you do u til he got to la lande a d just showed you how much nolage he has and what an incredible hard worker he is .He has made such a massive change in the forest and you know you can trust him knowing he knows his craft .It must be a great feeling knowing he is on board with the tream and knowing you dont have to worry about trees falling down on building must be a great relief .Has well has makeing it safe he knows what he is doing and how to make the forest even more beautiful. Am so happy you found Nick he really has been a god send makeing a huge Diffrence in that part of the chateau. ❤Round of applause for Nick the tree surgeon 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😁xx
Stephanie I long to come to Lalande to visit you and this magical place. I long to meet everyone who lives at Lalande as well. I'm disabled and only walk with a walker. I use a wheelchair outside my home for safety reasons but my daughter wants to bring me to Lalande one day. My love to you all.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love the fact that okay, you need a room for where ever reason, and ta da! You just happen to have a room for your purposes! I would love to have that option! I love that room, with the rustic floors and walls. Oh I can think of all kinds of uses for it. Beautiful!
Stephanie you live in such magic! The garden is just looking grand! And you got so much done clearing out for the new shop. How exciting! Job well done! Sending you those sweet California vibes💜😎🤟🏻🇺🇸
WOW the lavender looks amazing in the courtyard. Thank you for another amazing vlog. That temperature is perfect for me. Next time I will stay till June.
The shop is going to be dreamy! Putting the mirrored armoire in made it come alive. I love the way the fading alliums are looking against the lavender. I love that you and Philip coordinated in cool white and red for dinner! You looked beautiful! I don't know if it was an editing oversight but the first part of the video where you are pausing before talking is awesome lol
On hot summer days under the pergola maybe you could get two large commercial standing fans ( not sure if you have electric in this area) we have done this for party’s and the breeze they create is very helpful . Just start off with the lowest setting as they can be quite powerful. Distance from the sitting area is key as well. In addition they help in the evening with bugs. Keeps them away. I love the château. It’s such a happy place.
Nick admitted he was taking the wood for his own use in the last video. Stephanie must have forgotten, because he was back for more on a Saturday and she thanked him.
Not always. Kombucha is fizzy and very good for your tummy. Sometimes kefir is a little fizzy too. But if you haven't overseen the process and you don't know what all bacterias are involved, might be best to play it safe.
I was so sad to see Maria’s work shop disappear I loved watching her work with the beautiful flowers and the many things she collected. Come back soon 🥲
I am finally all caught up on Chateau Diaries after watching since Covid lockdowns in 2020. Stephanie, you and your La Lande family are a delight and a true treasure for us all. Thank you for brightening my day whenever I watch the vlog. As for Nick the Tree Surgeon - he is amazing! I so enjoy watching him bring the forest back to a usable natural wonder!
You're establishing a shop? Wow! Stand back...that's going to take off like crazy if you merchandise it wisely. You should partner with Spode to design a blue & white Lelande series. This whole shop idea sounds sensational. I'm so excited for you. This could make HUGE profits for the chateau. Good luck. Keep us all posted. Jane from Georgia.
Did you know? You can peel very ripe bananas, push a pop stick firmly through, wrap in cling wrap and freeze. They make great banana treats on hot days and are healthy frozen bites especially for children. Not for those with sensitive teeth however. ❤️ from Australia 🇦🇺.
Hey Stephanie and The La Landers!💖 I'm back after visiting family in Perth after 2 and a half years of border closures! Looking forward to when Isabelle and Percy are back, I can imagine how you must miss them.😢 Fantastic episode, as always, great fun. Thank you! Love from Oz, 🥳🥰🐝🐝🌻🌼
Love the shot of Philip using the hedgehog spatula. 😂
I love that Philip calls you darling ❤️ 💕

I vote yes please.

I’d be interested on a video from guest POV … I wonder if someone has released a VLOG on the subject…
Amaury to Stephanie, "you have a lot of kitchen gadgets" says the man who has every woodworking gadget made! LOL 🤣
😉 Yes, that is a hoot. As was seeing his expression😳 when Vegan popped up in relation to the sweet treats🍌. Amaury is so adorable. It's lovely that he's taken on the daily watering💦 project too. 😃 It's always exciting when ppl discover the satisfaction of puttering outdoors in a 🌳garden🌾.

nah a man can always find more tools to lust over.
Nah… I think my hubby has all the tools ever made, he says No but how many screw drivers n hammers and saws and blades and clamps and drills and batteries for drills and nail guns manual and air driven and sanders and dust collectors and metal cabinets and jars and jars and jars of different types of nails or screws or left over parts or in our case a 40 foot square room of eco tic wood collected by his grandfather does 1 man need?
More… that’s how much more just more I’m told
I love that Stephanie doesn’t take what she’s got for granted. She’s always expressing how grateful she is and seeing the bright side of everything. It makes the videos so uplifting!
I love that too and I love how appreciative she is when people send things and you know she'll really use it.
Yes I love that while she love the finer things of live, she is also humble and very appreciative of people.
And it’s real. It’s not an act.
The white plastic thingy with the square metal grid is for cutting potatoes to make French fries.
I didn't see your comment so I said the same thing. Chips to Stephanie.
LOVE, LOVE, LIVE Stephanie's White and Blue daytime dress!!!
I hope Davey is proud of what he accomplished. He’s made a neglected place into a peaceful place that draws people to it
My goodness Amaury is ridiculously handsome!
I wanted the ice cream and banana loaf! You're so fortunate to have Nick the tree man!
What a clever crowd you are! What brilliant impressions!👏👏👏
Maria is amazing with her culinary skills and of course her wicked sense of humour!
Nick must be in demand, he’s so good and knows what he’s doing in the forest.
I really liked the little moment at the beginning that showed you trying to organize your thoughts and what you wanted to say. All those moments usually get edited out but it's always fun to see the normal human side.
I was going to mention that! It’s out of sequence too.
A rare mistake in editing! Fun to see her behind the scenes blooper lol 😋
I rewatched the beginning a couple of times now but I don’t know what moment you mean lol 🤷♀️ was it maybe re-edited?
@@steffaniel370 yes, you missed it, it’s already been fixed, it was a short slip of her walking & contemplating on what to say, very behind the scenes clip, Philip probably edited this one because it’s the first time I’ve ever seen a mistake like this lol
@@RinaValentina I think it should have been left in, there was a lot of interest in the reality scene.
I admire Amaury’s new found love for gardening and his dedication to watering the new plants. A chateau shop is a wonderful idea and knowing your and Philip’s impeccable taste it will certainly do well. I would like to see how Maria made the charming tomato appetizer. Thanks for the magic Stephanie🙏🏻❤️

Lovely as a cold starter or many at a buffet.
The chateau is like a great big doll house you can keep playing with and redecorating.
Awe…. Marie’s floral shop…. How I miss Marie being at LeLande…
The white chipper is for French fries!
The plastic thing with the grid is a chipper. Put peeled potato in, press the 2nd part down & chips!
yes & also a vegetable dicer :) ...extremely useful gadget.
(In America, we call the potato strips "French fries". Maybe that wouldn't do in France.)
The epic music playing over the wood chopper is just perfection! 😂👌
That timber cutting machine is amazing.
Amoury has a David Attenborough vibe to his voice. So soothing.
What an asset Nick th treesurgeon is, very lucky to have him x
He’s hooked on transforming those woods, now 😜😎🙏🏻🖤✨
Can you put the shop on-line, so that those of us unable to visit in person...can still purchase a souvenir. Personally, I would love it!!!
Seeing everyone eating together & cooking such tasty looking food warms my heart. The shop looks so much larger than when Marie used it. What a great room.
I’d be happy to use that bathroom every day! A shop sounds so much fun!
My 1st live! Yay! Stephanie I love your life, your enthusiasm and pure joy for living. Most of all I love that you are selflessly sharing it all with us and those lucky enough to be there at LaLande with you.
Well said !
Welcome Nancy. Blessed Be

I do agree but maybe Stephanie likes the open style … I wonder if she has mentioned if that is the way she likes or she never thought of covering during Summer time 🤷♂️
Maybe a sail shade would suit
The no smoking sign (the cigarette) is mounted upside down and made me laugh 😂
The loo downstairs…a suggestion…a small piece of glass just above the small basin will save your wallpaper getting wet. ❤️ love the luxury
Plexiglas also protects wallpaper its lightweight.

I really do miss Marie so much, and Thomaz's hilariousness + energy were so fun whilst he was there.
Indeed and as a Brazilian myself it was fun to see him engaging with others. He lives in Portugal these days .
The shop room is a beautiful space. It’s going to be lovely.
Nick is truly amazing.

Wow - Nick is having his little production line - great! 😎😎😎👍👍👍🥁🥁🥁
Y’all have the best bunch of friends I have ever seen. What one can’t do, someone else can do. I think I would love to live like you do.
This is hilarious because my Austrian and I do this all the time. We dive into one project and get distracted by another project and then wind up making ice cream and cake. Loved the log splitter! Continue living the marvelous adventure! 🦋💜🌸

Nick the Woodsman blows my mind again. Amazing machinery. I hope to see something happen with all those baby redwood trees. 🧡
When preserving a good rule of thumb is pitch it after a year.
I think having Maria onboard is an asset to La Lande, she has a gentle,
and also a steadfast way about her.
It’s so amazing what Nick has done with the forest.
THAT DESSERT LOOKED FABULOUS!!!
Stephanie- be careful in the heat. I worry about you. Enjoyed the video. Love to all and I miss Marie also!
Hi Scotman! 🤪
How great! A shop. Take home memories!
Stephanie when u sping clean u really clean.
Stephanie you are so fair, you must wear a wide brimmed hat when outside 👒
Drink lots of water😉
I thought the same thing.
Living in Florida means a. Sunscreen and b. Sunhat
OMG Philip has a sweater on?!!!
Can’t wait to see the shop in all its glory ❤️❤️❤️
Gosh, Laland in the French summer heat!! Perfect! ☀️🌿🌻
Lol Stephanie having a very British moment "oi I'm looking right at you"
That gadget you thought might cut eggs is for making french fries! Put the peeled potato in and push down. I loved your blue dress you had on btw.
A Château shop! Sweeeeet, love that idea 💡 👌, can't wait to see your collection. Love from Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦 ❤
Beautiful people and Beautiful place!! Lalande is so lucky to have you all!!
I love the French music when you clean!
Mugs, tea towels and aprons with pictures of the chateau on would sell well in both your physical shop and on line.
You have certainly inspired me, in your clean-up - I have decided that tomorrow I will start cleaning out some boxes that I have had standing since I cleaned up after my mother's death, it's about to be on time, I will send it for recycling, not to be thrown away.

Yikes!
The courtyard looks amazing!!
A glass splash back by sink taps in the downstairs loo will protect the wall paper from water damage.
Whole potatoes to a French Fries!
I love natural Stephanie at 3.30. Missed cutting a section of the video, but it's so interesting how Stephanie films!
I blame the heat!! 😂
Is Philip editing the videos now… His bad lol
@@RinaValentina Went back to look and could not find that part.

As usual brilliant vlog. I love the everyday in your life vlogs. Such an exciting and busy life. So happy for you Steph.
The ice cream and banana bread look delicious as well as the beautiful dinner with guests. Fun day at LaLande. Love to all ❤.
I love the fact that okay, you need a room for where ever reason, and ta da! You just happen to have a room for your purposes! I would love to have that option! I love that room, with the rustic floors and walls. Oh I can think of all kinds of uses for it. Beautiful!

Another Fabulous Vlog, Nick is So Fantastic, Hope you Brought Him some Chilled Water , Amazing Again 👌👍👏👏👏👏👏👏💕💕💕💕🌹🌹🌹🌹
Are you the famous Josie
WOW the lavender looks amazing in the courtyard. Thank you for another amazing vlog. That temperature is perfect for me. Next time I will stay till June.
The shop is going to be dreamy! Putting the mirrored armoire in made it come alive. I love the way the fading alliums are looking against the lavender. I love that you and Philip coordinated in cool white and red for dinner! You looked beautiful! I don't know if it was an editing oversight but the first part of the video where you are pausing before talking is awesome lol
I think the heat was hitting her then. Please wear a hat and use sunscreen. 😁❤
@@carolinegooder7091 I thought about a hat too plus is kind glamorous 😅
Lovely, as always. The banana bread and ice cream looked delicious! Thanks, America’s, for watering the gorgeous plants!
Yes, buying things + time = sorting things...
On hot summer days under the pergola maybe you could get two large commercial standing fans ( not sure if you have electric in this area) we have done this for party’s and the breeze they create is very helpful . Just start off with the lowest setting as they can be quite powerful. Distance from the sitting area is key as well. In addition they help in the evening with bugs. Keeps them away. I love the château. It’s such a happy place.
LOOOOVE that firewood making machine! Oh how it would have saved my back all those years ago!!! LOL
What a lovely life!
Nick admitted he was taking the wood for his own use in the last video. Stephanie must have forgotten, because he was back for more on a Saturday and she thanked him.
You are right the fizzy feeling is a baaaad tummy
Not always. Kombucha is fizzy and very good for your tummy. Sometimes kefir is a little fizzy too. But if you haven't overseen the process and you don't know what all bacterias are involved, might be best to play it safe.
@@Sgirl yup, I wuznt being specific enuff....kind of like mayonnaise gone bad
Yes, going into a beautiful bathroom is so exciting and your blue decorated downstairs one is perfect. Thank you for sharing your home with us. 🇺🇸🌹
Great fun and such a good Idea!
I was so sad to see Maria’s work shop disappear I loved watching her work with the beautiful flowers and the many things she collected. Come back soon 🥲
I so wish Amaury would read a bedtime story for us, what a voice, what a man. Lucky Natti. X❤️🇬🇧😘😍
37 degrees! It feels like that here...in Fahrenheit! It's still limping along below 20 C. I can't wait for summer to finally arrive in Seattle.
In Seattle, too! We were bundled up on our walk this morning, dodging raindrops ..
I’m down in Vancouver and I keep wondering if summer will ever come!
I am finally all caught up on Chateau Diaries after watching since Covid lockdowns in 2020. Stephanie, you and your La Lande family are a delight and a true treasure for us all. Thank you for brightening my day whenever I watch the vlog. As for Nick the Tree Surgeon - he is amazing! I so enjoy watching him bring the forest back to a usable natural wonder!
Your dress you are wearing today is very pretty
A New Shop, How Exciting. Have a Lovely Week. Xx 😘😊
So excited to see the goodies on sale in your shop
You're establishing a shop? Wow! Stand back...that's going to take off like crazy if you merchandise it wisely. You should partner with Spode to design a blue & white Lelande series. This whole shop idea sounds sensational. I'm so excited for you. This could make HUGE profits for the chateau. Good luck. Keep us all posted. Jane from Georgia.
