We find POISON in the CHAPEL!

The work that has been done in the Chapel so far is absolutely stunning.

I like the kitchen without the curtains.

The chapel everytime you show it is transformed to such a magnificent space. I am so in awe of its beauty.

How lovely that your guest thanked Marie by stroking her arm and shaking her hand. I so appreciate guests who acknowledge all the hard work put in by the people who make the chateau so special.

That is a long day for you, Marie, gathering all of the food, prepping it, serving it, cleaning up, doing the dishes and then you have to put on a new tablecloth and set it for breakfast, wow, at least you are young!!!

It’s fascinating seeing the restorers at work and being able to follow their progress is is a joy 👏

The chapel is coming on amazingly. I can't believe how good it's looking. The restorers obviously have a great knowledge and a passion for their work. Looking forward to seeing the complete restoration.

I like the kitchen without curtains too. It's so busy you don't need curtains at all. This way it makes the kitchen seem bigger,airy and more open to the light.

I love how Marie is looking so classy & polished when it comes time to come in front of the guests, professional right to the end. I bet she has a routine now, keeping the appropriate clothes handy nearby & doing a quick change just before putting the cuisine on the plates, good for you Marie! I'm so impressed at all you do, flowers too

When you were looking out the window at John and Phillip walking the dogs I had to search carefully to find Lancelot The Dot. He is so tiny, so adorable and such a happy, joyful little boy!

I worked in lead dust for 14 years. I also had to have the men take blood tests every 6 mo. I was their Safety Supervisor. Many precautions are to be taken.

I am always so impressed with the talented dedicated people restring the chapel It is fascinating.

The chapel is so beautiful and colourful inside. How wonderful to have these restorers to make it this way.

The restoration work being carried out in the Chapel is sublime! The team of workers are exceptionally talented. 👏💖🙏🏻👏💖🙏🏻

Marie is so talented with her cooking, flowers, eye for the details & such a darling personality

What a lovely gesture from your guest, shaking Marie's hand. It is lovely to see how appreciated she is, which she obviously deserves....and more ❤

Still gut wrenching to see Notre Dame.

My Grandmother had a dining room table the same size as yours. She had a pad made that accordion folded in four sections. It was covered in thin felt, then the first table cloth, usually white but sometimes lace, then the second tablecloth. This made a luxurious feel to it and held plates, glasses and silverware in position. It also produced a dampening effect on loud conversation that was quite pleasant. The lace was machine made, nothing expensive. As a child I loved to run my hands over that lovely smooth top cloth. When not dining the table was stripped to its wood surface, polished, then in the center, was placed an oval shaped metal bowl with discreet pierced designs that was filled with life size transparent glass fruit which fascinated me, especially the grapes which were wired together, though the wire didn't show unless they were picked up. It had once been a lamp, the bulb illuminating the fruit, but she had cut the electric cord off and removed the bulb, smart lady she.....and a really fantastic cook to boot.

At least Marie can have a flat surface beside the stove dedicated to meal prep. Marie the meal looked wonderful with this dinner service. The green accents were lovely! The great thing about being a trained Cook is that you can take your skills all over the world!

The chapel is beautiful. Marie's cuisine, so beautifully presented, like a magazine photo. Marie could put together quite a spectacular cookbook.
