Lady Avonlea

Snorty is a sneaky, smarmy, conniving little squirrel. He sits in his over-stuffed office-cum-bedroom, burning the candles to the nub, drinking his sweet dessert wine, talking to his dead grandparents and plotting his takeover. He moves pieces of furniture and decorations around the shitoo like they are chess pieces.

Snorty is so manipulative in the way he surreptitiously shuffles crap around the shitoo. Snorty got Fanny to buy that mirror for the GS, but all along he had eyed it up for his bedroom. The question is why does Fanny go along with it all and allow Snorty to take over her home? Does Fanny think:
  1. allowing Snorty to move things around gives her some desperately needed vlog content?
  2. Snorty will have a big temper tantrum if she doesn't allow him to buy things & move things around?
  3. Snorty really does have design talent?
  4. better to allow Snorty to do it because she's too lazy to do it herself?
  5. Snorty's shopping addiction helps make Fanny's shopping addiction?

The boys from "At the Chateau" wrote a new blog

The Castle’s secrets and unknowns — At the Chateau

Dearest readers, I hope that my missive finds you well. Spring has come early to the Gers and we could not be happier. As we move our construction from room to room we are quite often puzzled by what there is, or what we find. Case-in-point, the beautiful scraps of wallpaper found behind the behemot
www.atthechateau.com

I love the pattern of the old wallpaper. I wonder how a whole room with it would have looked like.

So that rug from when she was13 has been around 37 years. Probably never cleaned it must have stunk. But they would not notice as they don't bathe much and stink as well

No, that was a new rug in the style of the old rug. Philip said the old rug had more yellow in it.

Or that fugly painting. Who thought that placement looked good

Wouldn't you think in a large project like the dump that you would have a list of items that were needed and accompanying dimensions, that way when they did pop up at auction you could check if it was going to work. It's not rocket science ‍

I'm sure I saw or heard her say the words "chateau swap" at some point but there was no evidence of any swapping. I think the other chateaux owners only buy what they need so they don't have junk to get rid of. I can't imagine any of them wanting any of Fanny or Snorty's bad taste rubbish. There was no mention of anything anyone took away with them so maybe it's all still at the dump! I'm pleased Amaury is managing to get the odd sarcastic and critical comment in. He thinks both his cuz and the child are ridiculous and he's right.

I beg to differ I had an abysmal fail with a Bundt cake yesterday I tried to make a blueberry lemon Bundt cake but I think I missed putting in an essential ingredient baking powder. If I remember, I’ll take a photo later.

It was urine. Give it a little time, the newer rug will have just as much “yellow”, if not more than the old rug.

They said they have watched the Rita Konig Interior Design course and the first thing she says about auctions is take a tape measure and a note book and get your eye in and don't spend on things you don't need.

Remember people: read with a sarcastic tone - it'll keep you sane.

Better living everyone.

Is it the same rug they put out to dry on the lawn when Fanny’s toilet leaked all over it?

Whichever tartlet is responsible for Chateau Grift on f/b, well done to you, as it is very good. Let’s hope the word Chateau entices the followers who are still believers to look at the site. Maybe then they will have their eyes opened and see the real scheming bitch and so lose the notion that she is a helpless little princess, who is always over exerting herself in order to please everyone around her. Then again pigs might fly.

Is being dirty a narc thing? I noticed over lockdowns I bathed less and didn't care as I wasn't around people. So being clean may be because we don't want others' noses to be offended. Narcs don't care about others.
I've read people say that Markle and Haznoballs stink. Could be a connection,?

Snorts is allergic to ricotta, nuts, chicken and ice cream. Also canned condensed milk in Fanny’s desserts! What did the poor fellow eat? Poor, gross, lying Snorts.

I don’t know what the git ate but he kept eating the cake.So disgusting.
How amusing a ring cake. Why did Fanny choose this?
I’m sure there was a subliminal message there somewhere!?
No one ate the cake. Hardly any was eaten.
Was it a bartering party ?Lots of jam, flowers, was there a goat somewhere?

Tea became drinks became dinner and most of the time Fanny was in the kitchen filming.
