So happy for the charity donation. Children are our future and need all the love they can get. Beautiful lavish gifts. I am very fond of all of the porcelain. By now you may notice I am binging all of the shows I missed and truly loving all of them. It was a very rainy and windy day here today and whilst I was making my morning coffee I saw though my window a huge blue heron on the peak of my neighbours house with his head tucked under his wing. I at first was worried as it wasn't moving but after a long time looking very much like a weather vane he flew gracefully away. There are no fish ponds near us but we do have a small stream. As he flew away I named him "Hector the wise". It is incredible that here we are isolated due to covid and all around us we have mini national geographic visits from creaters of the wild. We have 2 hummingbirds who survived the frost named Pip and Peep, a lovely couple. We have 3 squirrels a black one named black. A grey one named Max and a brown one named Blanche, they have been with us for 8 years now. Sorry Phillip, no hedgehog yet however 2 years ago we had a baby scunk in our back yard. We tried to rescue it but saw it was able to catch up with his mom. We called the skunk peppy la pew! ? Spelling. Thank you all for the blogs. Do say hello to Thor and family from Peter and Pat in Surrey British, Columbia, Canada. We have a huge flock of peacocks here that bother some neighbours but they don't live that close to me. Oh and Phillip you are to be commended for the hedgehog rescue. So happy you all did that. Lucky was very lucky and very cute. Can't wait to get all of my little bunnies out for Easter. I still have to take down the Christmas decorations though. I think by now you are still in south Africa and I know you are making the most of your visit with your mom and Percy.
Micheal Potts! My hero and such a gentleman. He embraces elegance and fun in such an amazing artistic package. And yes, red looks amazing on you Sir Potts.
Both are charming and good looking. But so are Philip and Selmar and all the rest of the La Lande men Our Stephanie has good taste not just in chateaux. Makes one very curious about the Elusive Michael.
In Canada as children in the seventies we used those Purple Crown Royal bags to hold our marbles.Those copper mugs are for Moscow Mules cocktails and the many variables. Great gifts Claudia!
Every week the gifts are so unique and beautiful! I am very please with your April recipient…what a wonderful organization! Those products from Texas are FABULOUS and I know everyone there is going to enjoy them! I use them all the time. Michael, please come back to the chateau more often and stay longer…we miss seeing you and that bread oven needs firing up! 🥖🥂🦔🥰🇫🇷
I love that you are donating to a children's organization to help with severe illness...In the U.S. we have a Make A Wish Foundation...Love, Love, Love that!!!
The packing/compression cubes are great for travelling. You end up being able to fit more things into your suitcase, or enable you to pack a smaller bag. Helps keep clothing organised and categorised, plus, it means that you can open your bag in public and not have underwear etc spill out. Thanks to 3-4 packing cubes I could travel through Thailand for 3 weeks with only a handcarry sized case. Also great in drawers etc to store aside items for a different season
I'm a native, 6th generation Texan and seeing that huge box gave me such joy! It reminded me of several other things that are Texas originals to send your way!
Lovely stephanie that's a very worthwhile charity , in ireland it's called make a wish foundation and my friends very sick boy has had so much wonderful joy from the gifts he has received one including meeting the liverpool football team getting signed Jersey ect ,, wonderful cause 🥰💕
The pool goes on top of a table. It is inflated and filled with ice, and then you can put your drinks and bowls of pasta salads or cut up fruit that need to be kept cool. What a great unboxing!
Great selection of gifts again - can’t believe the lady from Texas sent all those spices etc must have cost a fortune to ship via weight ! The jumpers I’m sure will come in very handy this coming winter 🥶 love the glasses at the end such a stunning colour - oh and Philips table setting looked just stunning 🤩
@@myracrawford5579 I got them from Castle Howard in North Yorkshire, spotted them and instantly thought about Stephanie & co. All the gifts are amazing and it`s just nice to give back for the joy and laughter they all bring, Hopefully looking to visit sometime in the near future.
Wow!! The generosity of people still astounds me!! And Stephanie you make me smile at your pronunciation of tacos and pecans. I used to pronounce pecans like you growing up in Iowa/Illinois (the Midwest), but when I moved to Texas and was quickly corrected. In the south they say “pacans” :) Either way, praline pecans are scrumptious!! Glad you enjoyed them! Love ya’ll 💝
When I first met Michael Potts here he seemed so glum at first. He is radiant this time around, such a gorgeous, lovely man it does my heart good to see him so happy.
Howdy ya’ll.. As a Texan and a Chef, I would love to cook all of you a real, Down Home, Old Fashioned,Texas Farmhouse Sunday Dinner.. including, buttered cornbread drizzled with my homemade ,prickly pear syrup…
A wonderful children's charity, it will make big contribution and make some children very happy. Loved the video, so many goodies... had to laugh, Michael was in Tex-Mel heaven!
just love the men trying on the women's jumpers!!! short sleeves are no deterrent for these guys! such a spirit of fun amongst this group. I'd be looking forward to winter......
Wonderful news about your contribution this month. The gifts are so thoughtful and so deserving. Everyone at the Chateau seems to be such happy people, it is such a joy to get the time to visit in your daily lives, the ladies are all beautiful and the guys are so handsome! The bunny cards just made the table, perfect! I love everyone at the Chateau, such a great bunch of guys and gals!
I am so THRILLED!!! I am the friend of the author Wayne who wrote the Gospel of Santa Claus!!! I can't wait till your guys read his books!!! You'll love the revelational insites he gives in these books!!!
I love watching and by association contributing to the various charities this channel supports, thank you to Stephanie and her happy band and to all those who generously send such thoughtful gifts xx
Stella‘s gifts are just amazing - and to be sent from so far away. Wonderful. Also the place cards (Heidi?) - hand-painted and super cute. Absolutely loved everything again - and despite being a spoilt only child who has trouble sharing, watching you all unwrap gifts for yourselves is such huge fun and makes me feel warm inside. Not least because then I know the proceeds from this channel go to a charity. Fantastic result for April; beautiful choice of a charity. Can‘t wait to see the next gift-unwrapping seis!
What beautiful glasses to end with, so exciting to see such wonderful thoughtful gifts and your joy in receiving them. Thank you, thank you, you so deserve them and the money gifts going to deserving charities, it’s a win win situation. WCL
Pace Picante was created in San Antonio,Texas The TV commercial used to make fun of hot sauce made in “ NEW YORK CITY” HA! The Fiesta spices are also made in San Antonio. The Salt Lick salsas are from a great bar b que restaurant in Texas. Long lines to get in!! Magnolia Table cookbook.. Chip & Joanna Gaines from Waco, Tx. TV show is called Fixer Upper. Your gifts are PURO Texas!
Tack ohs!? Oh Stephanie, I laughed so hard, I lost weight. We say tah kohs. I'm from San Antonio, Texas. I still love y'all. Big hug from me an all of Texas. Those are some of our best spices too. 👩🏻🦳 🤠
As someone who lives in Texas, I can tell you that you got sent some of the best spices to be had. I have some of the same in my pantry. The coppery glasses are for moscow mules, right?
Cooper cups/glasses were originally for Moscow Mules...but in last few years, the copper color (& pink gold) have become quite popular in USA & could really be used for any cocktail or wine.
I keep hearing you talking about your wool during your shows. It would be quite the fun thing for people to be able to buy yarn made from that wool. I know in England they still have a few places that take local and often heritage breed cheap wall and turn it into glorious yarns. Imagine people being able to order your yarn from all over the world taking part of your chateau with them wherever they go.
Stephanie, you are so gracefully and generous with you complements. I loved the beauty place cards, and the laughter and pure joy of everyone as the gifts are shared delights my Heart! Oh, the inflatable bar can be inflated and filled with ice and set on a table to hold drinks or salad and food the need to stay cool . Great for a buffet at your BBQ!
Here on Whidbey Island in beautiful Washington state we use the copper cups for a Dark And Stormy. Spiced rum, ginger beer and squeeze of lime. Batten down the hatches and make some cocktails to ride out the storm!
Beautiful and thoughtful gifts, particularly love the table name cards and the glasses at the end. Would love to be at the barbecue when Mr P returns to the chautue. To Philip, the table looked gorgeous 😍
Dear Stephanie, It just dawned on me that Lalande is having a *renaissance* of its own, no less vibrant or vital than the original in Italy. Perhaps, you'll look back to the first month that you were in the black and able to realize the full potential of the estate, commemorate it officially with a celebration fitting of a renaissance moment. Your legal heirs, if you never sell, will open their eyes to something even better than the original.
Stephanie, you are beyond generous!! When opening 🎁, you always think of others and what would look nice on them, what they would like best!! It's a trait that continually blesses you, as we can all see!! Love the charity you chose!!! USA
Wow Tracey Emin has done some great designs for banjo & Matilda, they aren’t cheap but they are very unique, what a generous person who gave you that cashmere cardigan, there’s one that’s says ‘she went out like a 40 watt bulb’
Beautiful material and jumpers, glasses are magical. Knit wear has short arms though, I find that quite a lot having long arms. You are all so lucky amazing gifts. X
@chateaudiaries I wonder if you would consider laminating those gorgeous table cards...Having those clear labels are great so you can rename them, but I wonder what happens if a bit of tomato sauce or red wine gets on them...maybe the laminating could preserve them for longer (if they could still be folded...hmmm). Just a thought-they are so beautiful!! And the amount of time she spend on each card...so precious!!!
yes! another idea is to tent them all out on a large drop-cloth or tarp and spray them lightly 2-3 times/passes with an acrylic spray sealer used for card-stock. Perhaps easier than laminating. The trick is having a light touch and waiting until dry, prior each pass. Avoid saturation &/or dripping. As always, do a 'test' one or two for practice, before proceeding to all. My goodness she has hundreds of those place-cards!! And to think, each was hand done! Clearly a labor of love.
I love watching all of your vlogs, you have kept me sane through the madness and isolation of Covid. I particularly enjoy seeing Michael Potts. He is very handsome and what my mother would have called " easy on the eye", lol. I couldn't help but notice something different about his face. I hope he is well. Could it just be that he's wearing contacts?
Yet another entertaining vlog. The gifts were fabulous. Your subscribers are so talented and generous. The place cards were so beautiful. So happy the charity for April is Le Petite Prince 🤴
Is she making a shop or have u decided it's a good idea? I agree. Especially after seeing her latest chateau visit and the darling shop they had. Steph could sell wrapping paper, anything Lelande, prints of her dad's art and definitely history books of textiles etc. Oh, and there should be toile...lots of toile. And hedgehogs lol
Gosh, I'm exhausted just watching the beautiful parade. Wonderful gifts! Who is in charge of organizing and storing the bounty? You will need that huge attic and many more cupboards.

I am so glad that Stephanie and everyone liked the cocktail glasses. It was lovely to finally see them arrived safely.
Always love to see Michael Potts infectious smile...He really makes me smile.
I really like Stephanie and Michael Potts relationship like they are more of a family ❤️❤️❤️
They were a couple for about 10 years…. Sad!! 😢
We’re they married? If not , who was she married to, I wonder?
Micheal Potts! My hero and such a gentleman. He embraces elegance and fun in such an amazing artistic package. And yes, red looks amazing on you Sir Potts.
Mine two. He belongs at Lelande.
If there is a more charming man than Michael Potts I have yet to find him.
Oliver the artist!
He is gorgeous looking as well as charming
Both are charming and good looking. But so are Philip and Selmar and all the rest of the La Lande men Our Stephanie has good taste not just in chateaux. Makes one very curious about the Elusive Michael.
All of Stephanie’s friends are charming!! I think she attracts them because she is so charming too!!

Love Philip, humour, manners and very handsome😘
The place cards are absolutely beautiful what a talented lady.
In Canada as children in the seventies we used those Purple Crown Royal bags to hold our marbles.Those copper mugs are for Moscow Mules cocktails and the many variables. Great gifts Claudia!
Omg I had forgotten that! Thanku😂💞
I live in the U.S. and we used those bags for marbles too….but my mother wouldn’t let us take those to school 😊
Yes, don’t forget to make Mule cocktails in the copper glasses! Yum!
Every week the gifts are so unique and beautiful! I am very please with your April recipient…what a wonderful organization!

The packing/compression cubes are great for travelling. You end up being able to fit more things into your suitcase, or enable you to pack a smaller bag. Helps keep clothing organised and categorised, plus, it means that you can open your bag in public and not have underwear etc spill out. Thanks to 3-4 packing cubes I could travel through Thailand for 3 weeks with only a handcarry sized case. Also great in drawers etc to store aside items for a different season
Michael Potts is looking especially dapper lately!!
i was thinking too how handsome he is
I think he should bring back the floppy hair ☺
I agree!! And happy to!
He is a "dish"
@@tinamac6960 ha ha!! Clever!
Kind gestures paid forward to deserving charities, a great idea. Thank you Stephanie❤️🙏🏻

Yes, Make-A-Wish foundation in USA too. 👍💗
Stephanie, that green on you is the most beautiful color I’ve seen you wear to date. You glow in it! You look so elegant in it.
The pool goes on top of a table. It is inflated and filled with ice, and then you can put your drinks and bowls of pasta salads or cut up fruit that need to be kept cool. What a great unboxing!

N.B. Crown Royal is a Canadian whiskey.
We love your laugh Stephanie!
I, too, love Royal Crown! It makes the most delicious Manhattans with a Canadian twist!
Pace Picante was created in San Antonio,Texas
The TV commercial used to make fun of hot sauce made in “ NEW YORK CITY” HA!
The Fiesta spices are also made in San Antonio.
The Salt Lick salsas are from a great bar b que restaurant in Texas. Long lines to get in!!
Magnolia Table cookbook.. Chip & Joanna Gaines from Waco, Tx. TV show is called Fixer Upper.
Your gifts are PURO Texas!
Puro is Spanish and it means pure in English just as a translation.
A pee-can is something one places under the bed if there is no indoor plumbing. Puh-cahn is the tree and the nut. LOL
All depends on what part of the States you come from...or part of the world. Also diff pronunciations for almond & salmon. 😉
Tack ohs!? Oh Stephanie, I laughed so hard, I lost weight. We say tah kohs. I'm from San Antonio, Texas. I still love y'all. Big hug from me an all of Texas. Those are some of our best spices too. 👩🏻🦳 🤠
Stephanie you’re such an inspiration on how to be awesome 👍😊
The black bean and corn salsa is known as "Cowboy Caviar", it's my favorite.
You scoop that fudge right out. 😂 😂. Love these videos
As someone who lives in Texas, I can tell you that you got sent some of the best spices to be had. I have some of the same in my pantry. The coppery glasses are for moscow mules, right?
Agreed! Texas here too!
Cooper cups/glasses were originally for Moscow Mules...but in last few years, the copper color (& pink gold) have become quite popular in USA & could really be used for any cocktail or wine.
I was thinking the same thing! That was an excellently curated package of the best of Texas👏☺️

Oh, the inflatable bar can be inflated and filled with ice and set on a table to hold drinks or salad and food the need to stay cool . Great for a buffet at your BBQ!
The copper cups are for a drink called Moscow Mules- an American cocktail!
True!! I think I heard that the copper cups hold the cold and also make the drink taste better than if served in glass.
"Moscow Mule Mint Julep Cups"
Here on Whidbey Island in beautiful Washington state we use the copper cups for a Dark And Stormy. Spiced rum, ginger beer and squeeze of lime. Batten down the hatches and make some cocktails to ride out the storm!
Or, for just healthier drinking of anything, the copper is good for our bodies. Most of us are deficient although testing is complicated
I hope the extra children's book will be given to gardner dans children.
That would be nice.
1st think I thought of
What amazing gifts!! It's a treat for me to see what's in the boxes. This is the definition of vicarious thrill. ;-)
It’s like Christmas every week!
YES!!! Texas represented at LaLande!! Nice!! You have some of the best!!
Loved the box of Texas items......so clever
Marvelous marvelous marvelous like I said you can never go wrong when giving it to children. 🦁👍
What beautiful presents ,people are so kind x
thank you for all the laughter especially the manly hips 😄🦔🐨 from Australia
The presents are just beautiful!!! Thank you for sharing!!!
The kindness of people never ceases to amaze.
Beautiful and thoughtful gifts, particularly love the table name cards and the glasses at the end. Would love to be at the barbecue when Mr P returns to the chautue. To Philip, the table looked gorgeous 😍
Always a main highlight of my week, any posts from Chateau Diaries!!
Absolutely amazing and thoughtful gifts! Those place cards are divine. Love your blogs Stephanie and friends.
Bbq master was soooo excited to see this Texas goody box!!!
Dear Stephanie, It just dawned on me that Lalande is having a *renaissance* of its own, no less vibrant or vital than the original in Italy.

I am always so touched and amazed by each and every gift because of the thought and love put into each item. Enjoyed. Love to all ❤

You are going to love the Magnolia Cookbook! Love this cookbook.
The copper glasses are mostly used for a drink called a Moscow Mule. 2 parts vodka. 4 parts ginger beer. Lime and mint to garnish.
You guys should have a Christmas in July, Australian style! Cheers
Martini glasses are also perfect for serving desserts.
Loving the place cards! Thank you for the video!
I LOVE THE gifts that Stella sent.
Enjoy them.
Wow Tracey Emin has done some great designs for banjo & Matilda, they aren’t cheap but they are very unique, what a generous person who gave you that cashmere cardigan, there’s one that’s says ‘she went out like a 40 watt bulb’
I’m seeing an entire wing of the chateau dedicated to storing all the cadeaux. Those sweaters will be so cozy this coming winter.
Wow what generous subscribers, wonderful gifts.
Such Joy! Delightful!!!
Texas that was a party in a box
It just amazes me how generous people are.
My cousin lives in Texas, and when she comes to visit Illinois she always brings the pecans. They are irresistible!
I absolutely adore Michael Potts
I hope he stays a bit longer
Actually stays forever and ever 💞
Love to All...🥰

WOW WOW WOW what a lot of wonderful gifts so much thought put into them .
Love Sue ❤❤❤💐🇬🇧🍾🍷🍾🍾🍷🍾🍷🍷🍾
On the cover off the eatable plant book theres a dandlion plant ,jelly made from the flower is delishes i make it every year...
Stephanie I love your laugh. It makes me smile when I hear it. Be yourself and don't let the haters change you. 💖
Wow what a night opening such beautiful pressies and such a super charity. 👏👏
Beautiful material and jumpers, glasses are magical. Knit wear has short arms though, I find that quite a lot having long arms. You are all so lucky amazing gifts. X
Always fantastic gifts and giving. 🥰
Y'all are so sweet 💗
You're going to love the Texas spices!
We have wonderful cuisine here.
@chateaudiaries I wonder if you would consider laminating those gorgeous table cards...Having those clear labels are great so you can rename them, but I wonder what happens if a bit of tomato sauce or red wine gets on them...maybe the laminating could preserve them for longer (if they could still be folded...hmmm). Just a thought-they are so beautiful!! And the amount of time she spend on each card...so precious!!!
yes! another idea is to tent them all out on a large drop-cloth or tarp and spray them lightly 2-3 times/passes with an acrylic spray sealer used for card-stock.
Perhaps easier than laminating. The trick is having a light touch and waiting until dry, prior each pass.
Avoid saturation &/or dripping.
As always, do a 'test' one or two for practice, before proceeding to all.
My goodness she has hundreds of those place-cards!! And to think, each was hand done! Clearly a labor of love.
I personally adore Stephanie's laughter! 🥰
If it hasn’t been said. We use the copper mugs for a particular cocktail called Moscow Mule.
I love watching all of your vlogs, you have kept me sane through the madness and isolation of Covid. I particularly enjoy seeing Michael Potts.

This was a very exciting 😀 video everyone's sent the perfect gifts and so fun to watch
Perfect charity! Good job! ❤

Lovely gifts you received Love the peacock cocktail glasses
And a big hello from Ottawa, Canada ❤🇨🇦❤
back at you from Kanta
Hello from Stittsville
@@valariebresee4450 hey there neighbour
You could get the licence for the place cards and sell them in your shop!!
Good idea!!
Is she making a shop or have u decided it's a good idea? I agree. Especially after seeing her latest chateau visit and the darling shop they had. Steph could sell wrapping paper, anything Lelande, prints of her dad's art and definitely history books of textiles etc. Oh, and there should be toile...lots of toile. And hedgehogs lol
When you use those cookbooks, I hope you have American measuring cups and table/teaspoons.
She does. Someone sent measuring cups and spoons to make things easier for her.
As a native Texan (from the Dallas area) the Crown Royal bag is killing me 😂 I love it 😂
Love seeing Michael Potts showing up for videos he’s so handsome!😊❤️❤️
Gosh, I'm exhausted just watching the beautiful parade. Wonderful gifts! Who is in charge of organizing and storing the bounty? You will need that huge attic and many more cupboards.
