Few pages back there was some discussion, whether nati moved into nic's bedroom or above nic's bedroom... Nati just moved her office into the attic office which is directly above nic's bedroom.

Yeah, BG became obsessive. In the beginning she seemed to be a fan and supporter, but now it seems she has her own agenda. She claims to have direct contacts to the chateau but there is also prove otherwise. But that's all I know from the chats here
Its not just stephanie.. All 3 of the owners of lalande dont have kids (biological)
Maybe its the" lalande curse" or blessings. However you look at it.

O,lol,being the face down drunk would be funny!
She became over controlling about things.Really you can only post pics of peacocks n Spode now!
she would get slaray for it not higher percentage, percentage is based on the your stake in the company (normally)
as far as I know originally she had 1/2 and now potty bought 10 perent if I am not mistaken or something like that
it is quite possible that the father was the cook in the family and therefore SJ is cooking British meals predominantly
as someone said SJ made a pact with the devil by accepting such generous gifts and this is what everyone was afraid would happen

as a side note .. I watched a tv programme years ago with Jeremy Clarkson eating small birds with a group of people in France. They all had tea towels on their heads and ate the birds under that, bones and all. Twas very bizarre.
this boy is not Nic's son? hm I didn't know thatIts not just stephanie.. All 3 of the owners of lalande dont have kids (biological)

I saw this on Billions =]] it is apparently some delicate and I think it used to be illegal, the bird is called ortolan
I found the link btw would want to see that bird cooked either https://www.cnbc.com/2018/05/04/real-story-about-the-illegal-ortolan-delicacy-eaten-on-billions.html

Regardless of Isabelles lack of baking prowess they should still have included French traditions, way of life etc in SJs life. Cake is an amazing building block of life but there are other things. I’m sure there are French traditions year round that she could ‘show and tell’ if only she’d been shown. Generally older folk, ie granny, are the font of all knowledge when it comes to tradition but if Isabelle isn’t bothered then it must pass down the female line sadly.

Just given my crystal ball a polish and it's telling me that we need another core module added to the University of La La Lande ...Also I can clearly see SJ being one of those woman having a child with 49lots of content waiting for us
Core Module - The Indispensable Life Experience of Maternal Ambivalence
Thesis Title - We don’t tend to ask parents why they choose to have kids, so why would we want to question non-parents’ motives
Like Christmas pudding! My (French) mum never got over the disappointment when first presented with the famous British Christmas pudding.The probleme is that's not a French cake. It's an English cake. The French hate it when they have to eat it. It's an acquired taste
Just read it. Revolting....
If I was in her situation of having people from around the world sharing their culinary culture in my kitchen I would be integrating new found recipes and skills into the menu, just for myself let alone anyone else.
But hey, that's just me - we all have our different passions in life.
SJ tends to refer to Delia Smith and the BBC good food guide (which is pants btw. Often the recipes there are poorly put together and give poor results) She never seems to cross reference, develop and explore her own recipes. Probably why she bought the Thermomix. Blimey O'riley, that's an expensive bit of kit just to weigh and mix ingredients. It doesn't cook the food or even wash the dishes
I for one would NOT be interested in a La Lande cookbook. Dana K would be much better at this.
side note .. The Georgian Sunday vlog - she seemed to snatch the dumpling and proceed to fold it in a way that came across as I can do anything but she hadn't observed and took on board the way the dough needed to be centralised and how to tuck the folds by placing your thumb behind whilst turning it to create an enclosed tight parcel. It's the same technique that is used across Asia and would have been used in her kitchen when some of her volunteers made the 'worlds biggest dumpling'.
termomix is the answer here, I am positive, I also have a friend who doesn't know how to cook but she wants to, so termomix cooks for her she just puts precisely what the termomix tells her - to me this is strange but why not if you don't know how to otherwiseIf I was in her situation of having people from around the world sharing their culinary culture in my kitchen I would be integrating new found recipes and skills into the menu, just for myself let alone anyone else.

I've seen her cook with the goat and Georgian guy and once she mentioned that she will replace some alcohol in that Xms cake so you see , it is a progress
I know the Americans are very hmm unworldly but honestly it would not occur to me that one has to explain that this cake is British and that one is not, well, sometimes even I am naive
Thank you Mojo , I thought it was just me that was getting really fed up of this pseudo intellectual psycho babble on this thread IMO.
Typical the one time in life
I could drinkup
A shower
Backtrack - cos it’s annoying ...me
This threadinitially was a friendly poke about .... a chat 0000
Lalande while flogging pulling smiles N stunts ....
that were a tad cheeky !!
Yet now it seems “ thoughtsor observations ....
are now a social experiment for a particular few or ... to be mused over and analyzed -
@sandro37 - your first posting came in so hot and heavy - I personally thought
For a newbie ... you had a very entrenched View of LOTL - I thought nope .... big agenda here ...
Id observed on FB forums and as I’ve previously stated Lalande-Stephanie had a concerted PR campaign - to rid herself of DOnegal trotter since Wednesday last .....
right went your angst blew into town ......
Just an observation .....
to quote yourself
I like observing ppl watching their behavior .... interesting
Caught up now on all the thread where opinions vary - not aggressive ect ect ...
still TO ME .. there’s an inside agenda from YOU ...
derail any sign of poking fun at the chat ooo
as it SEEMS the concept is alien to you to slag off shown behaviors
The slagging off and concerns voiced here - got the attention of LOTL
Things changed - without been socially analyzed - with no uncertain amount of twisted angst ..... personally I just love observing...
Once again, this "tradition' is from South of France, Provence. These birds are called ortolans and are seen as delicacies by Provence people.
The rest of France has never eaten this.
Sd I said, it's a tradition from some part of South France. The rest of France has never eaten this.
re termomix, I remember how surprised I was when she bought it bc it is expensive AF and when you have a BB or restaurant you try to do stuff from scratch and exactly this thing is to weight stuff predominantly, the same goes for smeg appliances for Isabel's apartment etc, and than again she was struggling previous years - no wonder if you ask me ...
Banned for over 10 years now
I've always been fascinated by her SMEG fridge in the kitchen.
A dream for many of us. Only a dream...
anyway back to smeg fridges and alike
maybe I will read it somewhere in the previous threads but since I have you all here, can someone please explain to me this particular interior design taste
I don't mean to offend anyone but to me it is too kitch like, even the expensive pieces like Venetian mirrors, so far it seems that there are different uber-expensive pieces, collectibles all put together and it should somehow show how posh that place is, but to my defense I never understood neither English nor American colonial style
the same goes for Patricia Altschul's House in Charleston https://www.architecturaldigest.com...tschul-charleston-south-carolina-home-article - I just don't get it
someone mentioned maximalism - I love it, but even that one can be done tastefully (example ),
I get that most of this wallpaper was there before and it is some kind of traditional type
is it just me and my personal taste or I just don't understand the style?
I don't understand why certain colours are put together in that place
style wise I have more inclination to Gwen's castle (that is quite classical)
can someone who knows about this, please point out what type of style they are both?
