In my country there's a tv detective series with a grumpy, lonesome, greedy detective I like to watch. He always eats pasta al nothing at work. So in one episode they let his colleagues trace him down in a posh restaurant where he again orders pasta, but this time with truffles. Oha! So the waiter comes with a trolley. On the trolley a cute elegant silver balance. Another waiter comes with a tiny basket with a small truffle in it. He starts to shave a bit off onto the balance. The balance shows about 20 bucks. He asks: some more? The grunoy detective just nods. The waiter shaves some more off. The balance shows 40 bucks. Meanwhile the colleagues give him the bad news. He lets the waiter shave the whole ball off for some comfort food. So in the end his simple pasta dish was quite expensive.I've never got Mac n cheese either. Truffle cheese sounds interesting but people have really put me off truffle saying it was vile like eating a piece of earth. Was out at the Ivy with friends recently who ordered a pasta dish with truffle and never offered me a bite to try it when I explained why I'd never had it. . Don't want to waste a meal if it's something I'm not going to like.
Cuz will be cutting it down in two...... is there another room he can panel with the off-cuts !Is this what she bought?!!!
I feel bad for the panelling
Again: british HumorI don't understand why her mother would call her out publicly... why does everyone need to know.. a private message would have been much more appropriate unless she wanted to humiliate her for past misdemeanors.. Not a nice relationship in my opinion...
IJ's as French as they come... the woman refused to even lose her accent after eons of living in UK!Again: british Humor
Close enough!
On Isabelle’s accentIJ's as French as they come... the woman refused to even lose her accent after eons of living in UK!
In contrast, her sister (the nice one we have seen on the vlogs and is married to uncle Stephen and is SJ's god mother) speaks perfect English!
The ivy in BH or the Ivy at the Beach (my FAVE!!) which- don't you think it's funny- nobody here eats carbs, but yet it's THE HOME of the fancy comfort food? Also, everyone thinks it's such a party town? Ahh no, it's a company town. Any working actor has an early call time or is traveling for work. Everyone is home and asleep by 9. It's a GHOST town by 10. It's HILARIOUS! We moved here after Boston, and I thought Boston was soooo provincial after NYC... ahh no. There is a saying: If you are smart and ambitious you move to NYC, if you are not that smart but very ambitious you move to LA, neither... move to SFI've never got Mac n cheese either.

Really? I really like them. And the SMELL... mmmIn my country there's a tv detective series with a grumpy, lonesome, greedy detective I like to watch. He always eats pasta al nothing at work.

This scene kind of impressed me that much that I decided to try and to have for xmas just pasta with butter and a bit of truffles. Back then there was no Internet so it took a lot of effort to find a store in the next big town and order the truffle and pick it up etc.
We were really excited. I cooked some fancy expensive pasta and shaved some truffle with a tool I especially bought for it... And: it tastes like a piece of dirt
I didn't speak English until I was 20... and now (let's just say I have lived in an English speaking country for fewer years than IJ has) the only thing that gives me away is my very distinctly non-English name...On Isabelle’s accent
I knew a Dutch lady who had two daughters upon arrival in NZ. The 9 year old lost her accent entirely, the 11 year old always retained it.
My understanding is that 11-12 makes a foreign accent permanent. They may be exceptions, but I’ve never met them. View attachment 913146
OH FFS! I do not understand, who does he think he is?Dipstick now says there’s no rules for setting tables
My husband' speaks French- he says his accent is for poop. Btw - I will say what IOH FFS! I do not understand, who does he think he is?
You live in a farmhouse. You don't dine at Fouqet's. You don't have your afternoon tea at LaDurée. You are allergic (your words not mine) to EVERYTHING.
How about focusing your channel into something you are good at... there must be something even though I can not recall anything successful he has done since entering the châteu-verse...

Yeah, we (or me, American) were taught a lesson on British humour/humor with Dan and Annalise. I just figured Steph and her mom were teasing back and forth. Isabelle didn't sound upset to me. But, I know, I know, Dan's groupies are going to tell me it is totally differentAgain: british Humor

But you’d have to be true lovers - with genuine warmth and affection for each other - certainly not to cause harm !
Wouldn’t you ??
