The Chateau Diaries: GOODBYES FROM LALANDE!

[@nickyzw]

Selmar must never leave. He's such a personality!

[@LisKofod]

4 years later, I still miss him 😊

[@freesimorgh]

I think at this point Selma is going to stay forever... also I love that he dresses up so handsomely for dinners!

[@barbibutton9619]

Yes and for dance lessons. A man who gets his hands dirty, can fix anything yet turns into a gentleman after a hard days work.

[@darlenevm]

From your comment to God’s ears!!! Let’s hope Selma stays forever! 😃

[@squirrelsWithPearls]

AND he loves all the animals!

[@teedee3834]

Selmars art work above the shower door is a true piece of art!!!

[@janetthomas8244]

Yes, kind of art nouveau

[@Mabbi54]

I love how he encountered a problem and instead of simply fixing it, thought of a way to make it more beautiful. A true artist!

The most extraordinary thing about Selmar is not only that he is so talented in so many ways, but also that he can work on different chateau projects absolutely independently, and you may be sure everything will be done perfectly without any supervision. Bravo to that shower window!

[@susancross6936]

Sorry thomas has gone he was such fun

[@janhenry9733]

I've been under the assumption that's how it worked, that you do what needs doing and perhaps apply your own skills to better the place. Watching Selmar gave me hope that it's possible to leave a lasting mark on something historic and bigger than ourselves. Volunteering at Lalande is pretty much all I've talked about since March.

Selmar & Dan two treasures. Can you imagine the Chateau in years to come? Selmar with his restoration work inside & Dan with his magic in the garden & with Stephanie & Maman at the helm, it will be the BEST chateau in the whole of France. Not forgetting gentle Marie with her talent with flowers. What more could one want.❤️

[@kamillacsekei-toth323]

Keep Selmar forever, hire him so no one will steal him away.

[@aatikahcarmenhappy3494]

He is one worker for lifetime to keep amazing guy mutli skilled

[@carolweaver3269]

Keep dancing with him and he is a great teacher. Fun times with the dressing up for all occasions and various eras. I know all of you enjoy parties like this and the time you can dance and have fun together. Selmar can teach the steps a bit and then all of your dancing and enjoy the times in the evenings is such fun to see al lof you doing. Nice break up of the time, after working so hard. Selmar is not going to leave he is needed and he can be the Prince even? Yoru brother when he comes and Selmar as Prince and you Princess and your mom Queen ( Or the Queens mother??) and we could use even a Duke and Duchess? Micheal should be Prince too when he is there too? But keep Selmar. Everyone likes him and sees so much personality and just feel he fits right in!. I do not like or believe in goodbyes and my grandmother never would say that. She would say "So Long" but not Goodbye. We will see each other again!

[@leslieluzirr300]

Yes . Selma is the prince. But I think he is a mysterious man part angel. And looks like a rocknroll singer. I think he is a character in a fairy tale. A prince.

[@airi8395]

I was thinking the same thing

Speaking as a Vet Tech., the cat will need an oral antibiotic. Cat's are very suseptable to infection, from even the most minor of wounds. Feline antibioics are just pennies. Better safe than sorry! Poor babe.x

[@barbibutton9619]

Yes, I just asked if they had or could get colloidal silver. Used it for my cats wounds but if it's deep, he may need a vet, idk. Can't see it to know.

[@jjpikker]

I noticed he is not neutered either. That sometimes helps to keep tomcats from fighting.

[@LibertinaUno]

@@barbibutton9619 Colloidal Silver is amazing stuff and so easy to make . I always have a bottle around and when running out just make another .

[@susanspurling4826]

@@barbibutton9619 I can see from the video, it is on the deep side. I take it you are in contact with them? I would get the antibiotic. The farm Vet for the sheep will do it as well.

[@tnago428]

Julie Pike I noticed that too! Please neuter your cat! Too many unwanted kittens get euthanized in shelters.

[@mariadigiovanni1168]

Just a little observation- Ruby the cat is a full fledged Tom cat in need of being neutered so as to prevent more stray kittens in need of homes, and fewer cuts and gashes from his territory battles. It would do him a great service to get him to a vet for a snip snip. He will thank you for it.

[@jennistevenson796]

Maria Di Giovanni Yes I would too x

[@teedee3834]

I hope your cat is better soon I am sure it will be as Selmar and your mother are on the job.

[@lorky24]

I've been realizing what an awesomely strong person you must be, Stephanie, to be able to continually adjust to the different personalities that come and share your space with you. I'm glad Mummy, Nat, and Selmar have been there regularly throughout this covid time. I don't know how you can keep your equilibrium through so many comings and goings but I'm delighted you share these intriguing characters with us. I'm going to really miss Tomaz and Antoine.

[@emcee2684]

So sad to see Tomaz go after being there for so many months. He did such beautiful decorating in the various bedrooms and the laundry room has such beauty for such a hard-working space, especially in comparison to the way it was before he redid it. Did you have a going away dinner for him? Perhaps you did but just didn't film it? He added such life and beauty to the chateaux while he was there. I'll miss seeing him here.

[@martinwright4125]

for a quick dried tomato, choose any of your favorite variety---i like the small sweet 100's or the teardrop salad tomatoes. prepare by halving. place on a well greased half/whole sheet pan. sprinkle liberally w/ good evoo, sprinkle w/ sea salt, good ground black pepper, white granulated sugar, a bit of cinnamon, dried thyme, dried dill, and powdered cardamon. you may change these dried herbs as/ your taste. place i a preheated oven (300 F) uncovered for 2 1/2 hours. stir them about every 45 minutes. if they are full of moisture, it will take more time. just turn down to (300 F), until you get them to a wrinkled appearance, and they have a chew to them. allow to cool, and place them in a glass jar, being sure to save oil, liquids, and seasonings for jar. add a bit of red wine, red wine vinegar (1 Tblspn+), or (1-1/2 Tblspn's balsalmic vinegar (I love the balsalmic). it is important to add the vinegar, as the olive oil will need to be tempered by it. vinegar will keep out anaerobic growth and the olive oil from becoming rancid, if not refrigerated. i prepare to or three flats at one time for my catering business, as it is cost effective, saves on loss, and wonderfully fresh-tasting and vibrant in stews, sauces, and on salads. if i use whole cherry tomatoes, i put them atop of blanched, salted, peppered asparagus, cippolini onions, and cornichons. i call the presentation jeweled asparagus, for the presentation can be done in the form of a starburst or a crown. i usually use a silver salver, baccarat round server, or spode in blue. it can be very beautiful and very tasty. this use of tomatoes allows one to use them immediately or save them in the pantry. i also like the recipe because i live in a seasonal region of the States, and i have to rely on tomatoes from mexico, california, and florida. this method is a way of getting a deep, deep tomato flavor any time of year. i hope you will try it, if you haven't. bon appetite.

[@christophercunningham3679]

A trick with Tomatoes I learn (through poor planning) if you freeze them (in Ziploc or such bags). When you let them half thaw out It is the water that thaws first which you can poor off. Than what is left is the body and the flavour and you have to boil it down less for sauces.

Lovely video, and I've always let the ads play, however KZbin has been adding mid-roll ads and this time it must have interrupted the video around 8 times. Is it just me or were there a lot? I definitely want to support Lalande. Thought I'd just mention it as some creators want to know what KZbin is doing with ads during the video.

[@CassaundraPaolini]

it wasn't just you, there were double ads every 3 minutes, about 10 times... it was too much.

Hmm, ok. I let the first one go but the second set followed up soon after and my husband gave me a look. As it's our watch Lalande time, I sadly skipped the rest. I will go back later and watch it again, if it helps. I felt so bad. But I've always allowed the pre-video or post-vid ads if there are any.

Pack the bottom of the jar with chèvre add the other dried ingredients on top, add softened whole garlic, and submerge all in oil. Tighten the lid. Refrigerate.

How? How do you do it? Every time I watch a vlog from the Chateau I end up with a huge smile on my face and feeling even more like a part of your beautiful party of friends, family and guests. I just decided I need more margaritas in my life. I love the fact that Selmar sees some job that needs doing, like a header over a shower, and turns it into a lovely work of art. He is so artistic and talented. Tomaz added so many touches to the Chateau during his stay and then to compose a piece of music at the end was just the icing on the proverbial cake. It's almost like the lands and buildings of the chateau bring out some magical, mystical talents among those who show up on it's doorstep. Thank you yet again for making my life happier.
