Traditional Bread Sauce
Traditional bread sauce is one of the great, classic British sauces, but I think it has suffered from either not being made properly or – worst of all – being made from a mix or packet. The real thing is beautifully creamy and the perfect accompaniment to chicken or turkey. The Delia Online...
As for my xmas we are only two also
this year(it changes every year)
-chef salad
-pork shoulder stuffed with cranberries, apple and walnuts +veggies side(prob cabbage with roasted parsnips and carrots)
-Norwegians cookies (sirupsnipper & pepperkaker)
everything homemade.
I think Fanny and Co have also seen the writing on the wall… and the star scam is their attempt to squeeze the last bit of money out of the same group of followers. She and her channel will never grow organically, all she has left are her scams and her dumbass cult of core followers.
They deserve everything that’s is done to them. One may say Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, I guess I’m a gullible clown who will dance to your every tune
she doesn't need a tour, every room, every window sill, table, under the chairs, the tiniest nook in that house is full of dirty plates and other sh*t from emaus, auctions and grabeau.
The one they put in the dining room is the big Balsam Hill they bought last year. You can tell because the bottom portion is on wheels and they wheeled it in when setting it up. I think all trees they now set up are Balsam Hill, but they have probably been stored in a hole somewhere and a bunch of crap were dumped on them, hence all the wonky and broken trees they have now!
Of course they don’t care about a $700 tree, that’s only 2.5 stars and they have plenty of those!

Can you imagine? Having a call on one's life of setting tables and buying porcelain? It's a hard life but someone's got to do it

Todays Christmas Chateau diy ended with a party hosted by a couple of lads in their Normandy chateau. One friend performed the evening entertainment..... an opera singer who showed SJ how it should be done.

Bread sauce??!!?? What a strange concept!
At Christmas, we will be having:
starter: poireaux vinaigrette with a Parmesan crumble
Main: Coq au vin with mashed potatoes and roasted Brussels sprouts
Dessert: Coconut sorbet and blood orange sorbet with a surprise brought by my sister. What could the surprise be? Mignardises? Delicate cookies?
J’ai faim!!!!
Ma Potts should stay / sleep at local Emmaus it would be warmer and cleaner, with spare clothes, blankets and beds to chose from and be surrouned by less crockery / piles of plates.
Here is how I do it when I'm on a laptop, which is most of the time. May laptop is Microsoft based, not Mac based. This works for YouTube, too.Can I get some help? Could anyone who knows how to share an instagram post here tell me how to do it?
Could you @ComtesseRose @M&MsMom and @HalcyonOrganic
You are the ones I remember sharing Instagram posts here…
I copy the link to the Instagram post here on Tattle, so when you're on Instagram, open the post you want to copy here on Tattle. If you don't do it this way, you'll end up just posting the link to the Instagram account itself versus the particular post you want to share with people here. It will look something like this:
You'll notice I circled an area on the screenshot - that's the link you are going to copy and paste here! When you're here and creating a post, right clip and "copy" the link on Instagram (the blue circled area above) and when you get to your post here on Tattle, then right click again and hit "paste as", then select "plain text", and your link is copied. It will look like a link only, but when you hit "preview" before you hit "post reply" here, the entire post as it looks above will populate.
I hope this helps! There may be an alternative way to do this (and on an I-phone or MAC it's way easier!) but this is the way I do it.

I will be RIGHT THERE, just give me several days, I hear it's nuts at the airports........cherry and chocolate are my favorite pairing ever ever!
Oh dear, I'm sorry you feel this way. If you had had a mother like mine, who could not cook very well, then you might think differently about it. Every year she served up huge slabs of dry turkey, overcooked sprouts, rock hard roast potatoes, cold carrots, soggy stuffing and gravy you could stand your spoon up in.
The only saving grace was the bread sauce. She made it from scratch and it was my job to ram loads of cloves into a huge raw onion which she then floated in simmering milk, before the addition of a ton of white fresh breadcrumbs. The resulting gooey mess was like porridge, but it was warm and fragrant with the onion, clove and milk flavours (the bread was tasteless), and it made the rest of the meal palatable - I spread it over everything on my plate.
The smell of it always reminds me of Christmas.
I believe that Caroline has told us that Fanny wants 5 trees , one being natural and the others will be going up one at a time.
Could it possibly be that Narnia is also off limits?? They had boxes and boxes and boxes of grifted and bought baubles - it's not possible that more were needed unless the supply had been embargoed ? Truly insane.
Dana's kitchen pic was obviously from last year as Amaury looked happy and 20 years younger. Side note about the mysterious Alexander's abrupt departure. Do you remember that he was arriving for part of the winter to sew etc and spent one of his first evenings with Pheefs and Jared decorating peacock tree as a treat for exhausted Fanny who had retired. The 3 were up all night (shenanigans?) and the next morning - it was decided that the shatoh was too cold for Alexander and he was bundled out the door!

3 more sleeps for Fanny to throw a sickie for Christmas
So glad your husband’s back! I’m sure it is quite a relief. And that sweet baby…. it makes your reunion that much better!Hi, Tattlers! Marquis' wife here with a quick update on my husband.
He arrived home the other day wearing an orthopedic boot and accompanied by his cousin. I'm so glad we get to spend Christmas with him.
Unfortunately, he missed Chanukah but it's extra meaningful for him to celebrate Christmas with our son, who is doing very well by the way.
Hubby is expected to fully recover in about two or three weeks. I'm just so grateful to have him back.
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.
Here's a pic he sent me the day before he flew out of Tel Aviv (he never misses a workout day), and here's one of our son's fifth-month photo shoot.

I really admire pilots and I guess there was a lot of cross wind that day. Can you imagine your confidence on getting that huge plane down when you have tried 2 times and on to your third! I would be so in a panic by then!
I also like to watch the big supermarket trucks backing into the small holding bays ....... I am crap at backing up in my car and when I see them just do a "bing , bang , boom" and that big old truck is sitting just in the right place while the driving is going backwards - hell, who needs to go to the movies !
ComtesseRose ...... thank you once again
