Marie's artistry with plating food is absolutely stunning. How lucky to have her at Lalande

I may never cross the pond or anything like that; but I enjoy my trips to France with the Chateau Diaries.

Grant is like a breath of fresh air he gets 'stuff done' so easily. Amberline is also a delight to watch xx

I have always loved cornflowers. When I was a child we always called them bachelors' buttons.

Thank you Stephanie I am one of your patrons from California. I love your blogs. I have a 7 year old daughter and because of your blogs I am able to show her a different culture. She thinks of you as part of our family. We will go to a store and she will say Stephanie will like that. She has learned so much. In the future we hope to stay at the Chateau.

As an Aussie I can tell you pavlova is meant to be rustic. Even restaurants do them rustic. No one does smooth. It gives the lumpy parts a chance to crisp up or even go brown if you hold a flame over it

The walled garden is almost like an english cottage garden, where flowers and veg were grown side by side. Lovely!

My mother used to cut het rose bushes right down every autumn, and she always had the most beautiful display of flowers every year 😂😂❤

The Swiss put newspapers around the stocks after the cardoons are bunched together. That is how you shroud them so they go white. This is usually done in fall. Its a Christmas tradition to bake them in a gratin with Gruyere cheese. They are delicious! Look up the swiss way to prepare them, you have trim off the pointy bits. 😊

Marée as an Australian I can assure you that the best pavlovas are not smooth sided but rustic and freeform. I always dab my mixture with the spatula to make extra peaks. Your mini pavlovas were PERFECT.

Allergic reactions to the recent flower delivery; headache, etc? The culprit is the tall spikey, yellow bloom plant commonly called Scotch broom or any variation of broom in English-speaking countries. Its species name is: Cytisus scoparius, and is native to Europe and Asia. It is an invasive plant here in the US and the bane of Spring allergy season.

The walled garden looks amazing! Marie’s cooking does too! La Lande is fortunate to have wonderful people with amazing skills.

I never paid much attention to gardens when I was growing up but the older I get I can easily see myself puttering around in the chateau's walled garden having a wonderful day in an absolutely idyllic setting.

Grant is great to watch, so is Marie's cooking.

Marie is honing her chef skills. The dinner looks fabulous 🌟

Stephanie maybe buy a steamer to get the creases out of the table clothes. Just hang it up over a clothes line or on clothes hangers and steam the creases out and will be so much better.

After seeing your Hyssop herb we learned in addition to fragrance & soaps Hyssop is used to alleviate symptoms of gastrointestinal and respiratory tract infections and the common cold! Thank you for the idea! ❤️🙏

Careful with this piles of book boxes, the weight might damage the building ...

It will be very nice to see all the flowers that will be growing in the veg table garden

Please take us to visit the chickens sometime soon. Seems like it has been ages since I’ve seen Beethoven and the others. Do I have the name right? I can’t remember the name of the person I just met, but I remember the name of a small black chicken in France with funny head feathers.

Purple potatoes have lovely flowers, and fantastic flavor.

I don't think you will ever struggle for content. I'm happy with just a walk in the woods daily. There is so much to see and enjoy. Today I made a little arrangement with just foliage.... In a vase which I learned from Marie. I receive a lot of inspiration from this show. Love the day to day life. Keep up the wonderful work. Thanks.

You need a dolly to move all those book boxes.

Chef jacket would be lovely for Marie to complement her exceptional cooking skills.

Everything outside and in looks beautiful and inviting.

I love seeing what’s happening in the garden. ❤

My bachelor buttons from last year came up, I have both dwarf & tall planted. The blue gets me every time.

A time lapse of boxing books and planting baby plants would have been nice. Ok, a time lapse of anything of any is great fun.

Umber line is such a treasure. What lovely playmates for Lancelot.

Being a Melbourne girl from Australia, I love how Greg said yous. 😂My mum would say that means a group of sheep. Lol 😂 Myself and my brothers grew up saying it. Grouse and Ace too 😂

Perhaps the sunset was connected to the Aurora tonight! Please be careful with LittleBit when he’s around large dogs. One misstep with a paw = broken ribs

Show what it takes to clean a chateau, top to bottom. Plenty of content there!!❤

Lancelot 👑 is adorable. What a happy and LUCKY dog!

You should be careful of Lancelot with big dogs .lif they were suddenly to attack him he wouldn’t stand a chance .

Never hesitating to be drastic with roses, the next spring will be joyful

I'm still waiting for an update on the chicken chateau

Love the walled garden, what is happening with the chicken coop! Haven't seen it lately?

Cardon is absolutely delicious. It tastes a bit like artichoke and is healthy

Marie is humble all out of proportion to her genius plating and culinary creativity!

That’s a stunning sunset!

Where is that other garden lady that used to work there before this girl? Kirsty

I love the porcelain, all meals, gardening, updates on the chapel, traveling and just watching you, Phillip, and of course Lancelot. I love your accent too and lots of Marie.

Has the room with the panels that had to be stopped to put new support beam up under upstairs bedroom done yet? Did I miss seeing it finished? My hubby’s excited to see it too 👍Excited to see it🙏👍❤️is your Mom coming soon? Is there a bookcase for Marie’s cookbooks where they’re stacked on the chair in kitchen now? Soo many exciting additions.. was brilliant seeing your cousin build the top looks great!

This was nice and very silly, and very well done today. We had a wedding rehearsal banquet for 40 which was like a dream tonight. I will try to put something up, but, I was bending over and painting the kitchen garden veranda and back terrace porch FOR THREE DAYS with our cranky OLD painter and WAR VET (who was blown up three [3] TIMES (in the war), PLUS an AIRPLANE that crash landed ON HIS CAR!!!...., Dougy. He is very crabby, but he was a friend of my Dad's and we worked it out together until almost the end when he admitted that he was going blind and had severe cataracts, and so I asked him, 'how the hell are your painting then?', and he said, 'by braille.'

Marie might be interested. Amy on Chateau de Rosiers is making a quiche using nettles she foraged. She talks about foraging and how you can use things.

Enjoyed the mini garden tour. Good that you are growing hyssop. It's great for treating coughs & colds. If you combine it with myrrh, you can also treat the congestion that comes with colds or allergies. I have used them a lot. The food looked beautiful.

More of Obeline,, she seems to do a good job and is far prettier than Dan! And Kirsty is doing a great job as well. And we have not seen the sheep for ages,, or the chooks. Red sky at night, shepherds delight. Weather forecasters need to look out the door occasionally!

Was surprised to see Mexican sunflowers in garden. They are a terrible invasive alien in South Africa which we struggle to remove. They make hundreds of seeds and spread like crazy here.

Loved the pretty floral plates and the charming coffee pot. The garden is super interesting. Marie's food looks so so good. Im sure they taste gorgeous as well.❤❤❤

Can you tell me how you can take time in plating the food and keeping it all hot. I always struggle with that and didn’t know if you had a secret way lol 🤗

There's a lovely new Robert Kime wallpaper, Cornflower, that would work well in a chateau bedroom, since the cornflower is a favorite among Lalanders.

The Garden is looking great , the rose buds are quite big looking so be nice to see them out . Its hard to make a good Pav they not easy and Marie did a very good job . They very yummy and even nicer with Strawberries . 🍓

Your garden is looking lovely, particularly the climbing roses on the wall, and once again Marie has outdone herself with the entire meal, she's a runner for Michelin Chef award. Well done Marie xx

I have been making pavlova for over 53 years and those are not pavlovas - they are meringue bird's nests. Delicious but different! Pavlova is large & is usually irregular, but it has a crispy exterior and when cut, a beautiful marshmallow centre, 4-6 inches high, and usually topped with whipped cream and seasonal fruit. A totally different experience! Kiwi fruit, strawberries and other berries are all favourites. A good formula for a pavlova is to weigh your ROOM temp egg white (don't compromise the eggs being room temp - it's important) and then beat it until thick & dry and add double the weight (of the egg white) in sugar and a little cream of tartar. Beat only until the sugar is well absorbed into the whites. Dampen a sheet of oven paper and pile the mixture into a round and create a platform on top for the whipped cream to eventually be spread. Cook in a 350F oven for about 15 minutes, then turn the oven off and leave the pavlova to dry out for several hours. After the first hour, crack the oven door but don't open it wide. I have probably made 100's of pavlovas using this method, without failure. We used to own a small hotel and it was the Wednesday night dessert and a HUGE, legendary favourite. If you are cooking things that require only an egg yolk, save your whites in the fridge and use them to make your pavlova. Our pavlovas were "freebies" because of saving the egg white from breakfast when people asked for two eggs. Our farm eggs were so huge, that saving the white from one egg resulted in enough for the Wednesday night pav! We usually used about 16+ oz of egg white to make a huge pavlova that served 15-20 people. Enjoy!

Amberlene is such a beautiful sweet person helping in the garden like that.

If you can get a fan in the containers the better chance the books won’t get musty. But still a big risk.

What a lovely episode...I had a perpetual smile the entire time! The walled garden is looking so beautiful and will be spectacular when all the blooms open. Bravo Ambline! Then Marie's cooking....it just gets better and better! We miss Marie...big kisses from Marisa and David 🥰🤗😘

I got my seed catalog in the mail. I'm now in an apartment, so it's my wish book now. I automatically thought of yor garden and your mom. The catalog is Baker Creek Heirloom seeds. It has purple tomatoes on the cover.They are beautiful like most of their things. If you could get them to send you one I suggest you get one!

I so enjoy my vists to the chateau from my sofa i would love to come in person to vist to walk in the woods and vegetable garden .

I enjoy visiting with u all. Have great weekend. Stay safe

Those plates and bowls are so pretty. The bowls on the yellow plates looked very lovely yesterday too, they went so well together.

Stephanie I just wanted to say I love your vlogs and am happy to watch anything you film for us! 🙏🏼🩷 I think it’s such a treat that we get several vlogs in a week! 👍🏼😃

We use hyssop in a herb mix on top of our our humus. It’s a wonderful taste!

From sunny South Africa, you are a breath of fresh air. Keep doing what you do as I love being part of your day

I really enjoy these daily vlogs. Life changes and evolves. People leave and new ones come. I enjoy especially the garden and Marie’s cooking.

You can make flour for cooking from lupins

Spray the rose bushes with soapy water. It'll kill the bugs before they eat all the flowers.

Stephanie (& co) put a rose petal in your mint tea! Great for skin, anti inflammatory, anti viral and lots of other superfood stuff ❣️🌷

I loved the tour of the garden and the excitement of planting new flavours for the year.

Marie, I’m in awe with all you create. 😍 Thank you so much for all the joy! 🫶💞🫶

Emma Bridgewater…..my lovely daughter Abigail loves, LOVES all her stuff!

Hi, Did you know that there are anti moisture little/ and large sachets you can order from Amazon to keep moisture out of your books and your storage units? You know the little packets that are in your vitamins/ pills etcetera to keep moisture out? It's the same but on a large scale! I use them in drawers, closet, car( under the seats) they work so well!!!! Be well, Audri

Love these videos! I love all the little check-ins that you take us on. 🥰🥰 The garden, the outstanding food, the room projects, the chapel. It's all delightful, truly. Thank you Stephanie!

Beautiful.! I hope you all see the aurora borealis there and can film it tonight!

🤗🌻missy Isabelle, Percy, and Jerry

Adorable coffee set🩷

Marie is amazing! Well done on the planting! The coffee pot is pretty.

Myself and all my family use Wild products and we love them. Not only is there no waste the scents are wonderful. We live in Canada and they ship directly to us.

I love watching every single day! It makes me so happy❤🎉

The "Mexican sunflower" is Tithonia.

Marie can't ever leave LaLande😁

I think Maree could do with some help doing flowers the guess cooking !

I think the dogs think Lancelot is a lively toy to play with. Oh that garden is a dream, I have had so many that I miss because we moved more than we planned on. I am so thankful for youes. I still have a small garden now, but I am at odds with the rabbits and squirrels.

Beautiful dinner and guests. Lovely coffee set too. 😊

I noticed a large “bouquet of scotch broom in your vlog yesterday………notorious for allergies.

Beautiful coffee set. 😮❤❤❤❤❤

Wonderful gardeners! Their passion shows…

The table and flowers look so pretty.❤

Meringue can be cooked in a microwave. This way they remain white and do not brown. Also very quick .

Lovely video ❤❤🌻

I love watching this channel its a boost of positivity beaty n happyness ❤

A moving dolly would help to move several,boxes at once.

Everything looks so delicious! Good job! 🥰😄

I must say that this season Philip started to find his own touches......the table is looking more and more classy and personalised, he is doing an amazing job harmonising assiettes and décore, and marie is doing a fantastic job at the kitchen! Can we please have the recipe for her soupe?! Please!

I would love to have a Chateau la Land cookbook. How wonderful to recreate the lovely dishes of the many chefs and cooks who have appeared in the videos over the years!

Stephanie and Marie as soon as we get a hint of snuffles for a cold we spray 'first defense nasal spray' immediately and every day for 7 days believe you me this helps, if some one in your vicinity starts first you spray straight away.

The garden is looking great and hopefully things will catch up now it’s getting warmer. Nothing in the garden here in England seems to want to wake up lol🤗

The food is stunning as is everything else

Herend Market Garden coffee set is totally on my wish list - beautiful!
