Was going to say it’s like the good old days, but not sure if that is a good description of the covid fiasco. I hope you can continue on like this!

  • @michaelt8727
    @michaelt8727 Год назад +13

    What a wonderful way to start the day with a little waltz around the fountain and a soothing serenade (or more aptly, a grating squawk) of peacocks in the background. I’d enjoy a walk either way, with or without them. After all, a brisk or brief morning walk at Lalande is such a sensory treat. By the way, Stephanie, the speed at which you flew through the editing is one for Ripley’s Believe It or Not. Must be all the tea that gives you super powers.

    I went to an auction near paris last year and an 8 piece 18 th century sofa, chairs and bergeres in antique needlepoint went for a few hundred euros, the estimates were all low and things sold for very little EXCEPT the one thing I wanted, a vase made into a lamp, estimate 60 euros, went for 3800 euros so I waited until almost the end in a freezing room for that result! Typical. Two days in bed with a really bad cold afterwards. I did buy an 18 th century gilt framed mirror for 30 euros, two gilt applique lights in the shape of lilies for another 20 euros and two gorgeous tall Syrien lamps for 30.

    Stephanie, if you can get some polymer clay, you could press it on the moulding that you want to recreate and once you get the impression, cook the mould to instructions of the polymer clay and you have an exact replica that yiu can then make a plaster cast to fit into the space that is broken. Or wood if Amery is up to making it in wood. I can't wait to see the room finished. ❤

    I would have been interested in bidding on the burl wood stool at auction but then I would have needed two of them, so at 28,500 Euros each it’s a good thing there was only one. 😂 By comparison, the 19th century gilded mirror was a giveaway. As for Philip’s table setting, from the floral tablecloth to flower arrangements, the crystal to cutlery, dinnerware to decanters and napkins to napkin rings, all came together wonderfully, spreading Philip’s fame for fabulous table toppings far and wide.

    I'm curious as to Philip's life pre-Lalande. I find it very interesting that his family appear to have been buying him crockery and glasses for many years and I suspect before he met Stephanie and moved into the chateau. Did Philip come from a grand house? He really couldn't indulge in his passion for laying tables if he lived in a regular house with his partner as it wouldn't be anything like the free reign he has at Lalande.

    Bravo Amaury! Here's some hope for Molly. My dog had fatty tumors all over his body, and they were not cancerous. Our vet didn't even remove them. I believe this is all these are (or were) on Molly, so don't worry. Hoping the best for her! She's such a sweet dog!

    My Aunt's used to stuff quail and then stuff it inside of a pheasant. They would also do Chickens or ducks inside turkeys for Thanksgiving. .My dad and the two guys that married my mothers sisters had a total of 9 male kids. Back then there was 66o acres in the family as a farm that was run by by Dad's Uncle Jurl. None of the 3 uncles or 9 kids lived on the farm but we all bailed hay twice a year and helped for harvests and when needed. We sure hunted the place for all kinds of game. With a dozen of us we could clear a field pretty fast.. Then the 3 sisters would do the stuffed birds . I feel so grateful to have experienced that life. They are all gone now with the exception of my Dad in that age group. He is 91 and lives on his own on two acres in Joplin MO. The stuffed quail brought back those fond memories of days lost so long ago and forgotten. Thanks.
