I must say Marie returning has given LaLande the brightness that it needed back, she’s just wonderful.
Agreed
She seemed annoyed today that she was being filmed but that’s understandable.
Stephanie remains the morning and the evening star for me. Her cheerful attitude is not altered by the time of day, the weather, or other people's less-than-cheerful demeanor. But Marie is in her element and seems fulfilled in all her creative endeavors. She has had a great teacher in Stephanie.
@kindlydude extrovert and introvert. Different personalities, talents, coping skills and needs. Boundaries are important to observe for all.
@@bobbiejay2085 agree also it's her home sometimes you just recharge and relax I don't mind when they aren't all hyper and cheerful all the time no one is that doesn't mean they are annoyed or mad. my relaxed face tends to also fall more on the "resting bitch face" side doesn't mean I am annoyed or bothered 👍
As co-owner, love to see Michael Potts at the table!
Michael makes the chateau come alive. He's also very easy on the eye😊
It would be amazing to have "star" wrapping paper or some of the other design elements for Christmas.
Absolutely. Some of the designs around the stained glass windows and arches would also make gorgeous wrapping paper. “Collection chapelle du château.”
What a brilliant idea!!
Wonderful idea! This could be another income generator for the chapel project. When the restoration is finished, the maintenance of the building will need to continue and will cost $$, as all precious things do.
...or just prints of the different design elements of the chapel, as well as the individual stained glass windows and the statues of the saints. As well as prints, I thought of paper gift-bags, as well as vinyl bags with various prints from photos of the chapel. I would love to have a cloth or vinyl bag with a photo of St. Cecelia on it, since that is the vault section where I selected a star for my mother. Lots of good ideas. There are so many possibilities for Christmas ornaments also.
I love how Marie is honest.
Blunt I would say
@@julesdavis8254 Rude at times 🤭
Rather Cryptic ...well, this could be taken any way your imagination allows. If it is meant to pit Stephanie & Marie against one another it's rather foolish, because they have been acquainted and friends for many years. I only see mutual respect there. But if it is an innocent observation that Marie only likes what she likes ...for instance, unadorned aprons -then I agree. Marie's taste is straightforward and simple, and it is good for one to know one's own mind, likes, and dislikes, and not feel bashful about being oneself when it is a simple matter of taste.

@@aliciahorsepool4155she’s too sweet to be rude. Honesty and bluntness should be a more admired trait. Very big difference between being blunt and rude in my opinion.
@@TalieValentine Sometimes it's better to say nothing, Marie is an excellent cook and is a great asset to Lalande... but being blunt can hurt others even if unintentional. Unless an opinion is asked for, being blunt is rude and totally unnecessary. It's understanding what to say and how you say it, that makes the difference.
My Mom sold Avon in the US when I was only 3 and she sold those bottles of the horses, I remember seeing them. Thank you. Nostalgic!
My aunty sold it, in Australia. I think it was aftershave.
I am very happy about your decision to show the renovations here. It is why I started watching
I enjoy all aspects of life at LaLande, the people, the decor, the spectacular food, flowers and the restoration projects. All in good time. You are doing an excellent job Stephanie.💐🙏❤️
Marie is an absolute treasure!! Her creative plating with marvelous looking food is Michelin Star up there!! She looks very relaxed and like she is now at peace in her happy place, it shows in all of her creations.
Indeed, it makes me so happy to see her settled into herself and her place there.
Thank you, Pavlina, for the beautiful pots on the Terrace. ❤ You have done wonders in the garden during the past years. I heard in the comments you will go off adventuring again, but for now thank you for sharing your life with us. ❤
Thats a lovely sentiment that I whole heartedly agree with. Pavlina is a delight! xx
Marie is like the Floral Master Chef of LaLande. I do believe she has found her calling combing flowers and 5star foods.
My mom had three bottles of her perfume that she wore and my husband was going to throw them away because none of us would wear it but I said you have no idea just when I’m missing her so much I can take a sniff from the bottle and scent brings you back so much it’s crazy so I gave my son a bottle & my daughter a bottle and I kept a bottle, it was a perfect memory for all three of us. I can’t believe it’s been a year since I lost my mom, it still weighs heavy on my heart and I can’t tell you how many times I reach for the phone to call her.
So sorry for your loss! I know exactly how hard it is, and the olfactory and/or visual stimulations to memory are powerful. I'm glad you realized and shared with your children so you'll have many years of sharing memories of mom/grandma.
My husband died 16 years ago I still have his aftershave and reach for it to remember him. I’m amazed it still has its smell after all these years. It’s wonderful to have our memories isn’t it.❤️
I was in a department store with my son recently looking for cologne for him. I had him smell Chanel No 5. Asked him what it made him think of. He had tears in his eyes. It was my mother's scent. He recognized it❤
My condolences on your loss.
@@pdq5465 thank you
The chapel is exquisite. The restorers are amazingly fastidious and are creating a fabulous gem. There cannot be a chapel more beautiful in all of France nor indeed in the whole world
@@Kerrin77JIHI’m not sure I understand what you’re talking about. They have been moving at a tremendous pace. Especially for a near full restoration. It’s common for renovations to go over budget but a historic restoration? It’s a guarantee it will go over. I think it’s insulting to assume these professionals see Lalande as their “cash cow”
C'est comme une offense à la restauration patrimoniale mais sans doute par ignorance des nombreuses étapes nécessaires à toute restauration et aux surprises bonnes 15:59 ou moins bonnes et notamment le temps des essais de teintes, la recherche de l'emplacement ad'hoc des pochoirs pour tenir compte des irrégularités de l'artiste peintre du départ qui lui même a dû tenir compte des "erreurs"de l'architecte constructeur.
Je suis émerveillée par le travail de ces professionnels, de leur passion et de leur capacité pédagogique à rendre compte précisément de leurs avancées, doutes vis-à-vis d'un public plus ou moins néophyte et merci aux preneurs d'images. Merci Stéphanie pour ce partage d'une restauration qui aurait pu rester confidentielle.
Je suis vraiment d'accord que cette chapelle sera magnifique, un exemple mondial dont j'espère que les vidéos de la restauration unique seront largement diffusées dans les écoles spécialisées et auprès de # publics.
Transmettez mes compliments et hommages d'une adhérente de la Société d'encouragement aux Métiers d'Art (S.E.M.A.)
@@Kerrin77JIHthey worked on Notre Dame... Don't think that they are trying to squeeze money out of this project 🤷🏼♀️
Also, a properly educated restorer is worth his/her weight in gold! There aren't many who specialize in this kind of job...
(Unlike in many other trades, restorers are highly specialized because each medium (canvas, wood, stone,...) is very different and needs their own set of cleaners, paints, etc.
Moreover, in each time period a different kind of paint was used. You'd have to know the details to even be able to know what kind of solvent can be used without destroying it all.)
They’re not dragging it out, in fact they’re moving faster than I expected. Next week there will be eight people working on the chapel as they’re hoping to finish the paintwork restoration before August. But that will still leave the flooring and the electrics to be done
I'm amazed at how quickly it's happening, despite the intricate detail of the paintwork.
What Marie does with food is true artistry!
I love that Mr. Potts enjoys coming home to the chateau! He has great energy.
I smell that Lalande cookbook brewing - with Chateau and local produce, Marie’s cooking, Michael’s photography, Phillip’s table settings, and Stephanie’s beaming face eating a potato in some fried form! I would buy one ❤ 🥔 🧑🍳 📖 ❤
Yes, I drop hints about it. Hopefully it will be true one day.
This is a must!!!!! Marie has blossomed this year like never before. Her creations with food and flowers she pairs so perfectly with Phillip's tablescapes must be recorded and gathered into a book!!!! Michael Potts has the talent, and should be paid as well. I would buy for sure!!!
Yes please, a Lalande cook book would be ideal.
Let's not forget that Stephanie once cooked for her guests and came up with quite a few recipes herself!
It was so funny right at the end when Phillip joined back to the table and realised 😮
Would love to go back in time and observe the tools used for painting the chapel.
i used to collect Avon bottles when i was a kid and i had those horses
I have a 100 year old perfume bottle from great grandma and others in my collection. ❤
Thank you for saving all the big projects for your regular viewers. I don’t get to see the TV shows. I love the daily format and the informal nature of the videos.
I love how the restorers and gilders are working with nineteenth century and older techniques but also have up-to-date plastic or silicone to make the stencils more durable
Oh what a colourful chapel, so beautiful 😍 ❤❤❤
A Lalande cookbook with some of Marie’s recipes and Michael’s photos would be lovely
Today was a good day for a Good Day!
Marie… I remember how sad I was when she left, she belongs to the Chateau, with all of you.
Thank you so much for all the joy, I love you all. ❤️🫶❤️
That fountain has really settled in to the home nicely.
lol, Michael braving dragons for the shot!
What a jewel Marie is. I have no idea how she prepares all the meals and flowers. She is amazing and we are all blessed to know her through the vlogs. #Blessed
A Philip table makes my day!!!!!!
Quelle belle table, gaie, lumineuse et poétique à la fois. De quoi redonner de la bonne humeur à tous et toutes. Merci pour le partage ❤❤❤
Stephanie! I have a couple of untouched bottles of Vetiver by Guerlain from the 80’s and early 90’s. They were a large customer of mine as well as Versace, YSL, Burberry, Channel, JPG etc. I’ve kept many of the items from perfume to clothing and accessories since the late 80’s given to me for my work with them. The very same day in 91 I think. I was presenting to them on the bath road directly opposite Heathrow and as part of my presentation I used the taking off of concord to my left to show what greatness was about. Little did I know they were already awarding me a contract and was about to fly at the end of the day to Paris to sign. And it was not marketing. It was about how to use computers and the internet to promote the product. It took me places. 🙌
Thank you Stephanie. For keeping the big things for the Vlog and the little ones for TV. he he he You the Best!
Everything is looking so beautiful; the Chapel, the table setting, the flowers, Marie's stunning meal, Sir Lancelot, the place is sparkling! I'm hoping to get out there one day. I know I keep saying that. I'm afraid I wouldn't want to leave and would look for a little cottage somewhere nearby where I could weave baskets and make pottery, surrounded by Jack Russells and Whippets, and maybe a horse. Sounds like a plan!
🙏🏻🌷⚜️💗⚜️🌷🙏🏻
Thank you for sharing your projects with your daily viewers , as regular viewer from the first vlog we appreciate your gesture🥰🥰
Michael's breakfast "muffin" looks so yummy! Ye, of little faith, need to try it next time.
Marie’s dinners are nothing short of spectacular! Congratulations on her culinary creations and her floral creations! Perhaps one day I might be able to enjoy them in person. Love to all at LaLande, especially dear Stephanie who brightens each of our days. Thank you!
Marie’s multi-course dinner looked even more beautiful than the lovely sunset!
Thank you for listing the order of priority for projects at Lalande. I am so happy that your vlog exists. And I recall one quick video from Arne & Carlos showing what Norwegians do all summer: Place and remove, place and remove, place and remove the cushions on their outdoor furniture. Rinse and repeat. Having once had outdoor cushioned/not cushioned furniture myself, I can attest that this is a worldwide phenom.
Interesting to see Michael photographing the dishes for the book
Stephanie, I have been finding myself watching every single château diaries episode you have put out, actually ever since you started! They have just been so comforting, but what I really wanted to do is thank you. ❤I can only imagine how much work it is to put out as many videos as you do, and I’m just so appreciative of your wonderful attitude toward everything and just the woman that you are… It’s so sweet to see you and Phillip and your sweet doggy together… And just all the people! The chapel is so heavenly, too. 🙌🙏 I just wanted to tell you that I really appreciate you and Phillip and all the people who work toward making château diaries just such a pleasant little part of our days!❤🎉
Well said, I could not agree more❤
My father also used Vetiver; my mother wore Vol de Nuit. Amazing how scent triggers memories!
Oh yes Steph, you brought back memories. Avon bottles were really fun around the 70’s. Some of them were really pretty. The chapel paintwork is out of this world-all hail the restorers!!👏👏👏👏👏 Amazing. Isabel will be blown away. ❤️🧡
Marie’s dishes are so yummy looking! She has turned into an amazing Chef! The Chapel is so stunning! What intricate design & detail!❤
Marie is amazing! Another fabulous episode!
Wow, Marie has really stepped up her game.. go girl go.. you’re awesome!
I recognised the Avon horse bottle, my mum was an Avon lady in Australia for 40yrs. We had everything Avon in every corner of the house. LOL That brought back memories for me too.
I live in Australia and I still have a huge bottle of BIEN ÊTRE in my vanity. Every woman had a bottle of BIEN ÊTRE from where I was born. The smell is so fraîche. Lanvin also reminds me of my mother. She used their perfume when I was a little girl.
You (the woman who didn’t want a dog) have managed to acquire the most adorable dog in the world. Lancelot makes me smile every time I see him.
Amazing dinner. Incredibly beautiful! Bravo to Marie!
You should get all of your recreated Chapel colors made into a paint line- or at least paint sample books! I'd paint many things the blue of the Chapel ceiling in a heartbeat. 😍
Very few people understand pressures of living in a forever restoration.... i hope you always travel, shop and party to fuel your joy and power for recreating Laland. ❤❤
I agree Marie is a beautiful woman and talented in all things she does.
I think the La Lande MAGIC will bring a love interest to Marie. I was watching TCD when Philip walked into our lives😀
I love the Chapelle it will be so beautiful once finished….you are the bravest person on earth taking on sooooo many projects. Hope I am still around when the lake revives. I love lakes, I am from the Montreal area and was brought up near a lake cottage so love lakes. I am 83 and hope to be still around for the lake opening. I have been watching your vlog since the start. Bonne journée à tous.
The chapel is beautiful, the table is beautiful, and Stephanie, I couldn't stop looking at your eyes and how your green jumpsuit brought out the color in them.
Agreed, Stephanie is a true beauty!
Loved the glass perfume bottles, and the dessert plates with the dessert looked beautifull, so does the Chapel. Great LaLande vlog!
The chapel is breathtaking
Thanks Stephanie!
see you next time😉
I love how you stay positive Stephany
Yay! I love updates. You guys are doing amazing work. Remember to still enjoy life as you go. My husband just had a friend from work murdered being at the wrong place and time. He was 30yrs old. Life is short. Live it to the fullest. Xoxo
Love Marie’s flower arrangement and menu. Everything looked delicious. Pavlina did a great job with the flowers on the terrace 😍😘
That is what my Grandma wore too! And I still have her bottles as well,,,
Hi All, I love the extremely detailed work in the chapel, but it is truly a work of art. I'm hoping to buy in France in maybe a year or two and I hope there is a chapel on the property. Mark & Sott
Not sure about the muffins ...but lovely to watch the interaction amongst you all ❤
Marie, your Gourmet food presentations are stunning and Michael taking photos of your food!!! Excellent Job!
The Chapel is looking more and more beautiful!!!!
LOVE, LOVE Michael in his Miami Dolphins Shirt. :-)
If you make up a book with photos of the finished chapel, I'd buy it.
I love the matching curtains, chairs and lamps in the dining room. It’s so beautiful in there!
That floral table arrangement was glorious! So wonderful to see everything to do with life at the Chateau thriving!
I await your next vlog each morning. You have a special "chateau family", and Marie is precious.
Marie is a Michelin star star as far as I am concerned, and all the La Lander guests too! Plus, the georgios flower arrangements make the beautiful, as always, Philip table setting even more stunning. xxx
A very busy and full Chateau right now.
What a beautiful, colourful video. The Chapel, the beautiful sunset with His majesty Thor in attendance, beautiful flowers in the garden, a v colourful dinner and beautiful flower decor! Such a feast for tired eyes! Enjoyed! ❤❤❤❤❤
Might have to try that egg dish, maybe with feta , for some reason that just sounds good to me. hmmmm yum thanks Potts!
Love the additions to the chapel restoration. ❤ Hopefully, Michael will photograph and photograph the restoration and the restored chapel for a future book. ❤
Loved seeing the hand paintings in the chapel, makes the stained glass really stand out.❤
What an exquisite table and menu.
Hi F1 Potts - I watched Montreal today....guess it was a tad far for you to go,; nice to see you taking pics of things, for when your Chateau book comes out!
I love the old Avon bottles!
Marie is such a gem. Take good care of yourselves! 💜💚💙
I am amazed how much the chapel is coming along. it is beautifully done, and with you keeping it the way it use to be is great to see. I think the chapels of old with all their beautiful decorations are great to see. Thank you also for sharing your amazing lives and also giving inspiration to others. I hope to get to La Lande to visit one day in the future.
saving someone's perfume or cologne they liked to wear who has passed on.. its like getting a virtual hug from them from heaven ... its such a heart warming and healing thing to do when ur grieving ... we never really stop grieving the loved ones we have lost ...we just learn to live with it day by day as the years go by ...im glad im not the only one who does this ...thanks for sharing Stephanie that was very sweet that u do that too... i enjoy collecting little unique old bottles of cologne and perfumes and trinkets like that as well .. but my most prized ones are the ones that i can smell my past with and get those sweet hugs from heaven every now and then when im down or missing them ...
Marie is indeed a star.
Good news, and the right decision that you will re continue filming more renovation works for us loyal vlog watchers than for TV. 😁👌 Thank you.
What a super thoughtful person you Stephanie (I’ve said that before) to think of us Utube viewers is great!!! So much respect for you Australia 🇦🇺 Say hi to Grant !
all the hard and lovely work the restorers have completed - just incredible!
Stunning plates and the table and food are amazing
Marie is a gem!...lovelovelove❤
It's gone ber very exiting to se all those renovation.
I enjoyed the video, thank you!!
I always look forward to the “Chateau Dairies because it’s an escape from the crazy and volatile world in which we live. Like most viewers, I found your channel during the pandemic and have never missed an episode, including Cadeau. I have to say, I do miss the old Sunday vlogs devoted to a particular subject be it toile du joie, design elements, or history. But we are so fortunate to receive this information on an almost daily basis.
Forever a loyal viewer,
Kelly
Thank you for saving big stuff for the vlogs. We all watch every day and it's nice to have you say it's important to you x
So many beautiful colors and details in the chapel
I am so loving the daily vlogs! Im in Australia, so they are part of my breakfast time ritual. Such a great uplifting start to the day ❤
Same here. Great way to start each day.
Such a lovely way to start my week here in Melbourne Australia, Love the chapel progress, The food is looking lovely, Marie should do a little La Lande recipe book. the guest are clearly happy and the sunset did look magical.
The Chapel is truly changed so much from last summer and even since last week! I’m glad they’re doing such a meticulous job as it has made a massive difference in how it looks! I know I speak for many when I say, “I can’t wait to see it when it’s finished!”!
Much love and positive vibes from across the ocean in the US State of Montana. ✨💖✨
Marie has really come in to her own.❤
Another lovely day at LaLande 🌟 The chapel is looking amazing 🥰
I see a Marie cookbook with beautiful pictures in the future
Stephanie in a flight suit!
So impressed with the chapel!❤ It’s amazing how much it has changed. Really beautiful!!❤❤
I can’t wait to see how you mother reacts to the chapel night w!!
Beautiful, tasteful, welcoming....you are a joy! Thank you for sharing your passion...❤
