I love that Marc and Philip take the time to write a personal reply to all the comments! That's really lovely and shows appreciation and respect for their viewers!
Oooops! The food shopping budget got spent at Emmaus.Too kind.
I've never had it or made it any other way. Made a bucket of it last week, veg, anchovy, egg, no tuna, fresh beans carefully labored over. But to be a Perfect Little Shit About Food Orthodoxy™ , I looked it up in Larousse Gastronomique, land of a thousand salades.
"Niçoise salad. Salade Niçoise -- Mix equal parts diced potatoes and French beans. Season with oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. Mix with anchovy fillets, olives and capers. Garnish with quartered tomatoes. Sprinkle with chopped chervil and tarragon."
I adore chervil, sprinked on boiled beef and parsnips it's a universe of lush.
Hard to come by, never had it on even the best restaurant Niçoise salad. Which was at the Madison Hotel in DC, presented in a fluted pate brisee cup surrounded by dressed leaves. I think there might have been some toasted almonds involved. Long ago and in another country....
I was stunned Jarvis served her most faithful paying guests meat -- tuna and charcuterie. Ding dong! But that she was clearly winging it for the main dish of their lunch is fucking disgraceful. No black olives. No green beans. Tells me she didn't know or shop for what she was going to be serving.
I suspect he does more than spit in it.Maybe Amaury relishes the fact that he can secretly spit onto Snorty's food before he serves it.
Oeh! I was waiting for an event manager to turn up eventually at tattle!As someone who has run extremely large to small intimate events, I would NEVER allow a random made-up menu to be served to my paid event guests, especially one as unappetizing as this luncheon horror. Lentils? FFS.
The bordello with the haunted attic haunted by the secretary? I think i watched something about that ages agolol. They all involved delicious food, fabulous locations and interesting guests. (ie; a haunted, former bordello in New Orleans for one)….
That "as seen on tv" bit always cracks me up. Smacks of desperation. Trying so hard to be relevant, not remain relevant, but be relevant.Wiik Watch rebranded to Marie's Many Manifestations

There's a big difference between laughing with and laughing at.Last night I thought Phyllis and Cat came across as school playground bullies whispering and sniggering at that dreadful American volunteer cooing at every bit of tat available in Emmaus (the 21st century workhouse). It was uncomfortable viewing watching them all laugh at her. I can't think why Stephanie would think to include that in her flog.... unless she thought that behaviour was entirely reasonable. Live, Love and Laughter....
I don't like her because she is a bully but in a passive aggressive way-laughing at people rather than with them. She is a superior, thinking she is a cut above others, she tries to be different for different sake and I can just tell she is catty and a bitch really all whilst pretending to be nice and fun.Don't like Kat at all I like her less than I did . I’m interested to know why don’t you like her ‘at all’ may I ask ? Initially, to me, she seemed like one of those genuinely jolly hockey sticks type I went to boarding school with. The sort who is probably to scared to bat for both sides, but would like to ! The type of girl who is last to get a boyfriend but that blokes love to hang out with at the pub, mostly because she can no doubt knock back more pints than them, faster and without getting hammered. In the old days we called those girls ‘ladettes’. Yep, she’s a ladette to me but I don’t like the way she is dancing to Fannys time now, she’s become ‘one of them’ . Noticed the dig to Tatlers about the handwriting too.
I doubt she’d touch Dan’s barge pole with a barge pole, as has been suggested previously, but she likes to hang out with ‘a bit of rough’ in the way that posh girls do. What are your thoughts on her ?
really unpleasant talking about the woman he is meant to love- a little man in stature and prowess.There are many things to say about last night's CD but, for the moment, I'll just leave it at my admiration for Baby Bee Gee's heroic efforts slicing tomatoes. Using a mandolin without losing a limb.

Mmmmm Ossau Iraty cheese, love it but it's a bit pricey. Love a good lentil salad too, what she did looked revoulting. Around my way the melons seem to be coming to an end. I'm also surprised they don't do Moules Mariniéres, so easy.I'm a huge fan of lentil salad and the most upscale way I've seen it served was with about $20 worth of cold poached salmon and $10 very fresh herbs/lemon zest vinaigrette at the Hay Adams Hotel in DC.
It's also the season in France of the charentais melon, melon being the soul mate of lentil salad as cucumber cubes with skin are the soul mates of hummus. Cucurbits and beans, a fecund area of exploration.
Lentil salad hard to plate though, can't remember how it was done at the Hay Adams. I suspect green and not brown lentils are the starting point, with fresh spicy leaves underneath, like watercress.
Trying to brighten it up with beet salad is a typically skinflint choice by Jarvis. Lardons (as shown cooking the lentil salad) were one of Isabelle's Oliver Twist master of the Mudfog Workhouse dodges for not serving meat to her volunteer employees. We see Stephanie feeding her paying guests with the same memory of a whisper of lardon in the lentil salad -- bad idea, bacon fat can coagulate.
Dark brown lentils and dark red beets for lunch with tomato tart, a badly thought through choice for eye appeal, flavor and texture contrasts.

I wasn't a fan to begin with but I've warmed to them. They are working really hard to get things done and the attention to detail in the decorating is brilliant, not a colouring pen in sight.Just watched Chateau de la Ferte' one year time lapse there are some pretty serious people doing some pretty serious renovation OK Fanny what so you have??????? Seriously what do you have??? renovation wise and not shopping or travel????
Notice that his only contribution was slicing the tomatoes... but then, when a slice of the tomato tart was offered to IJ to try it became "Philip's tomato tart." Look what Philip did Mummy! Look Mummy! LOOK!There are many things to say about last night's CD but, for the moment, I'll just leave it at my admiration for Baby Bee Gee's heroic efforts slicing tomatoes.

I didn’t like that part at all, she basically bought the same crap that Snorts gets but it was so hilarious for some reasonLast night I thought Phyllis and Cat came across as school playground bullies whispering and sniggering at that dreadful American volunteer cooing at every bit of tat available in Emmaus (the 21st century workhouse). It was uncomfortable viewing watching them all laugh at her. I can't think why Stephanie would think to include that in her flog.... unless she thought that behaviour was entirely reasonable.

Yep … I see all that too . Initially I didn’t but you’re so right that she thinks she is superior - hence being able to joke and scorn. It was horrid and ridiculously fake the way Cat and Flip mocked and faux-hysterically-laughed at the American girl’s purchases. She is a loud bumptious show off and desperate to belong somewhere . In many ways rather like the dreadful FRK - she’s trying to fit into a house of misfits. Mostly because she can’t fit in anywhere else.I don't like her because she is a bully but in a passive aggressive way-laughing at people rather than with them.

Absolutely Brilliant … she’s literally like a mother speaking of her child’s crap artwork ‘oh how wonderful/ clever/ amazing …. ‘ though you forgot to mention he did multi-skill and was able to talk whilst he sliced tomatoes.Notice that his only contribution was slicing the tomatoes... but then, when a slice of the tomato tart was offered to IJ to try it became "Philip's tomato tart." Look what Philip did Mummy! Look Mummy! LOOK!
Fanny makes it appear as though he tilled the soil, added compost, planted the tomato seeds, nurtured their growth, personally picked them, grew the wheat, and it's so hot and dirty on the threashing floor for poor Philip, milled the flour, raised the chickens, got them to lay eggs, got them to hatch, collected the eggs, made the pastry of course he did, raised the cow, fed the cow, milked the cow, churned the butter, chopped the wood, he's so versatil, lit the stove, hand turned the rolling pin, rolled the pastry, cut the tomatoes, made the cheese himself from scratch, well naturally, ensembled the tart from a recipe he'd personally created, and cooked the tart to perfection because he's so talented Mummy! But wait, what? He didn't invent and patent the mandolin slicer? Oh dear, points off.

I also like them and they keep their children off the screen.I really like this couple.....they don't show off and get on with it as you can see. Plus they rescued the donkeys.
Horrible to watch wasn't t what a nasty bunch of school bullies and Chloe not realising they were laughing at her not with herYep … I see all that too .

the lamp looked ridiculous. IJ loathed it on the sight as indeed she did Flip. He wants to buy something wherever he goes, justifying it with the prefix ‘it’s ONLY …’ not that it’s his money anyway. Fanny treats him like an indulgent mother giving in his childish demands of ‘I want ! I want ! A parent sometimes doing this may avoid a toddler melt-down , but it’s really bad parenting because the only winner (in the short term) is the toddler who then believes demanding behaviour is the way to go.Yes, the debacle in the kitchen was absolutely disgusting, exactly like a bunch of nasty, spiteful school kids laughing and jeering at a classmate. The two nastiest were Snorty and Kat and SJ, as someone pointed out, is just as immature and spiteful for finding it hilarious and leaving it in. Chloe was OTT and performing for the camera but should not have been ridiculed in that childish way. The best bit of the vlog was IJ's aggressive reaction to Snorty and the lamp. He really disliked her reaction and sounded very aggressive himself when he answered saying how little it cost. They hate each other! The nasty, spoilt little schoolchild princess is not doing herself any favours with these vlogs. Now, returning to my hibernation!
