A British Coronation at a French Chateau 🏰 👑 | How to host a ROYAL EVENT!

[@ilovelovebucket]

Lalande really really needs a cookbook!!!!! It could help pay for the lake or the chapel!!!💕signed copies cost more! I’d buy one so fast!

[@laurag.2148]

What an ace idea! Who would have the time to do it Justice! Perhaps going to a publisher with the idea, considering the popularity of Stephanie and all at Lalande, could work to get the ball rolling!

[@johnwilliamtuckey2796]

I'll buy one too!

[@johnwilliamtuckey2796]

I can't tell you how much I love Kat! She looks fabulous. Don't get to excited Kat I'm gay. LoL Happy birthday Maria! 🎂 Such a fun vedio! Love you guy's! ❤

[@carolmoran7483]

I'd buy that cookbook too...😊

[@lqqkitslory]

Michael Potts could do the photos! 👌🏼 Philip could suggest table settings.

Where’s dan

She is so slim ❤️

[@Girbie1973]

So, she arrived ‘today’, but worked with Dan in his chateau a couple of weeks ago 🤔 Did I miss something?

Oh my goodness what a treat..,Marie, Maria and Kat are back...happiness.

I think The way Maria combines her amazing cooking knowledge and her dry whit is great! She was completely on point with the drunk almonds 😆

[@Victoria14357]

OH MY GOSH, copper utensils! Why haven't thought of that? Thanks Phillip!

Aww Phillip looked very g handsome Stephanie. You both are such a beautiful couple .

Yes!!! I second bringing back medieval recipes!!!! Reading about them is already so fun and actually making them must be even better!!

Maria is such a fab cook and makes cooking so interesting...

Somehow I missed this episode when it originally aired. This was so much fun to watch. I love seeing Philip's thrift shopping finds. I would.love to sit in your kitchen for a couple days to just watch the comings and goings. :)

Happy birthday Maria.

[@larissap6586]

Being 8 hours behind the UK and wanting to watch the coronation live (broadcasting started at 1am Sat local time) I opted to pull an all nighter and baked a pie to stay awake 😂 Seeing the balcony scene on your phone in the background made me think about how many people worldwide were connected by this historic event. ❤️🇨🇦

[@mparker6823]

@Larissa P my workplace is a 300 year old tavern on the east coast of the USA. I had Coronation Fever so badly that, even though I started out solo, by the time Coronation Day came I had spread the fever to all the staff and a ton of our guests lol. We ended up serving Coronation Chicken and "The Crown Jewel" cocktail. We all wore crowns. We sold out of the chicken twice. Today a guest who had been here yesterday said he could not understand what on earth the (expletive) fuss was about. Ridiculous. What crazy people celebrate that? I said quietly "me" and he (liking me) backpedalled in a hurry. Then I took him off guard by explaining that the main reason I liked it was, if ANY country happens to be in the position to unite people world round in celebration, and a lot(not all) of fighting and disagreements end for one day for people to celebrate, then I don't care a hoot what country it is, I'm just celebrating the unity of people world round for that moment. He was much struck by my main reason for celebrating, and said it was actually a beautiful way of looking at it. Anyway, when I looked at all the people eating the Coronation Chicken yesterday and thought of all the people world round eating it, the unity of humankind in that moment, that we were joining in on, was such an inspirational moment. You're comment on how we were all watching the celebration at the same time no matter what time zone we were in(I got up at 4am to watch and had a 10 hour work day looking at me afterwards), plus everyone eating all the same dishes, well, those were memorable memories of togetherness that will last a lifetime.

[@skp7577]

@@mparker6823 Your post has just made me Google the Crown Jewel cocktail. I’m English and had never heard of it. I may not be able to obtain Scottish heather for the garnish but I can get a sprig or two from nearby Dartmoor when it flowers. Thank you, I will try it.

[@bernadenecarr5418]

@@mparker6823 That is a beautiful way of looking at it. Being originally from the UK I’m still so proud of my Country - when they want to they really know how to put on an incredible show of Unity amongst Nations and bring so many people together. Good old Blighty!🎉

[@MrsBadger]

Beautifully stated. I was watching the coronation in Australia and it has been so lovely to watch and hear how you’ve all celebrated. It certainly has brought the world together ✨🕊👑

[@MK-Farm-Michigan]

Happy birthday, Maria! Stephanie, it's nice seeing all your friends and family back together in Lalande. Looks like a beautiful spring in France. You all make us smile

[@carolehanrahan]

Happy birthday Maria! It was fun to see you all celebrating the coronation together. I stayed overnight with my sister, got up at 6 a.m. to watch the whole thing together and had eggs benedict for breakfast. It was lovely and reminded us of our late mother who was a complete royal fan.

Maria continues to astound me with her inventive & most assuredly delicious cuisine. I'm glad she had a lovely birthday party; Also, I'm so chuffed, Philip, that you picked up on my tip of a steamer for the table cloth & clothes in general !!!! I can die happy, now that I have contributed facilitating the embellishment of Lalande 😉

[@leonardhall9791]

Lovely to see Kate back.She looks so healthy ans happy.. Happy season to all of you. Maria is a gem.

[@cwatson1975]

Yesterday’s Coronation was so wonderful. I didn’t expect to be so moved, but I was brought to tears more than once. Especially when Prince William kissed the King’s cheek.

[@baylorsailor]

I was moved by the service as well 🥹. The music was perfect. My favorite was the ancient chanting, when the King was brought the items to touch. I felt like I had gone back in time at that moment. It actually made me weep a little because of my deep passion for history.

[@endeavouringit]

Yes !

I never watched it. I’m very happy I didn’t. 😊

[@elenis.786]

[@carolinegooder7091]

They sold aprox. 30 billion lbs money in beer alone in London this weekend. As my Granny the Socialist was explained to, billions flow into the British economy yearly because they have an active royalty. People from around the world flock to enjoy British history, goods, traditions, and destination vacations, all enhanced by their royalty. The average person pays only 1.80 lbs a year in fees for rental properties like Whitehall, while King Charles pays income tax like his mother started doing years ago. So the modern changes happen slowly..He has opened more palaces to the public and saved more Scottish estates for working covention/event businesses, hotel schools, art schools, and farms. Ecology and the saving of heritage plants and animals have been big projects of Philip and Charles that we hope can be expanded. The Prince's Trust, which he started, has helped over a million small businesses and school grants. The constitutional part of the constitutional monarchy is strong, and you can affect your government by voting.

My kids (who are excellent chefs) would agree that The Coronation Chicken is not good. It was the best that could be done in the awful post war rationing period, but no one needs to eat that sort of thing now. The historical recipes and history are interesting, thank you for that information ! The whole video cheered me up today, the 8th of May. It was so good to hear everyone so happy and cheerful. We were meant to be in France at our little home in France Profonde, but sadly my husband had some health problems and we could not go. It was refreshing to see you all so happy. (i think the copper kitchen tools are wonderful ! I would have bought them too. Thanks for a few moments of light relief!

I finally watched a replay of the full ceremony that was absolutely wonderful and very moving! And the Brits 🇬🇧 do sacred choral music like nobody else. They ARE the best! Wow! I almost had goosebumps listening to the heavenly notes….and the trumpets….just WOW! May God bless you King Charles! You have a heavy load of responsibility and then it will be no mean feat to walk in the steps of your much beloved and admired mother, Queen Elizabeth, (RIP ❤️), but if your magnificent and moving coronation is any indication, it looks as though you’re off to a very positive start! #kingcharles #coronation

I'm assumed there are table pads underneath the cloth, that's how I iron tablecloths as well, they drag on the floor otherwise.
