      I found my father on this site. It only took me until I was 67 years old to even know his last name ! But just to find out he died just two years before.

      I opted for La Cornue's Chateau 150 and Flamberge Rotiserrie in my Northern California kitchen. My friends told me I was crazy to spend that much money, but they're heavenly tools and I don't regret the expense.

    I don’t know how the two of you work as hard as you do and still maintain your good humour. And you’re both so multi-talented, I am in awe. Keep it up and keep these videos coming!!

    The big sink could be useful in a greenhouse or close to your garden. To wash you’re hopefully amazingly growing veggies, to water your plants or give some pots a good rinse…🌱 😊

    So, you feed AND talk to your children - how VERY progressive!*lol * Congrats on the wonderful new-to-you stove. Your husband Lincoln reminds me more of MY husband Lincoln all the time- so patient and unflappable in the midst of renovation chaos. Maybe it's in the name! 😉 Thanks for another great vlog!!❤️

    • @kindlydude
      @kindlydude Před 4 měsíci +3

      I was thinking "how traditional" ... but I guess in this day & age w/all the electronic distractions it's 'progress' to feed your children & actually speak to them as well! At any rate, love her dry laconic humor! 😉

    I know it must be frustrating when you are travelling far and on a schedule, but we LOVED using the D roads in France when exploring on holidays. So many fabulous little places to discover and it lessens the feel of being a tourist. It's the closest thing to wandering somewhat aimlessly down all the side streets in Paris and hopefully reaching your destination. Thank you for adding those shots, it brought back many happy memories.

  • @jeansaggers2237

    Been watching & enjoying your channel for approximately the last 9 months. I live in Montreal, Quebec, Canada & was surprised to read that in 1880 your ancestor Calixa LaVallée, composed the musical score of our Canadian national anthem. The first Lyrics were written (in French) by Adolphe- Basile Routhier,a poet. Later in 1900 English lyrics were written. It wasn’t until 1980 that the Canadian parliament adopted O’Canada as our national anthem. According to “The Canadian Encyclopedia” Calixa LaValée moved to the U.S.several times, fought for the Union Army in the Civil War, then travelled to South America, studied in Paris ,and died in Boston. Even after his death at 48 yrs old in 1891 , his travels continued, when he was disinterred and his coffin moved to Notre Dame des Neiges Cemetery on Mount Royal in Montreal, which is the 3rd largest cemetery in North America,modelled after Père LaChaise Cemetery in Paris. There is a lot of information available about your ancestor Calixa LaVallée. Anyway, just keep up your great CZcams channel, you and Lincoln inspire me! 👍👍

    I have complete and utter stove envy! I will figure out how to become your best friend so I can come and stay in the renovated cottage just to use the stove. I'm not a chef but I am a good cook! If you encounter someone from Ohio wandering in the countryside, it's me. Deal of the century!!!!

  • @KACn5582
    @KACn5582 Před 4 měsíci +8

Congratulations on the stove, it's beautiful & what a great price, well worth the drive! Nice to see the donkeys...love hearing the crunch when they eat. Thank you for sharing, have a wonderful rest of the week. Take really good care, Kathy x Canada

    That stove could not have found a better family , great price, wow ! I wouldnt spend 35,000 on a car ! Of course you will be cooking up masterpieces to guests, while i eat peanut butter and jelly to avoid cooking a real meal 😂.

  • @VintageLPs
    @VintageLPs Před 4 měsíci +3

    What a prize you found with that stove. Such a unique look about it, too. About six years ago we drove along some of the same highways in Normandy. My paternal ancestor left St. Gatien du Bois in the 1600’s and since I have kept my maiden name, it is the same as that ancestor. Lovely to see the spring flowers in January when I am buried in snow. We don’t even see daffodils in bloom until May. 😢 Loved watching you clean out the outbuilding as that always leaves one with a good feeling. Have a great week!

  • @rosemariedeschenes7013

  • @LynnThompsonAuthor
    @LynnThompsonAuthor Před 4 měsíci +3

    That little village you went through looked lovely! I've gotten to where I prefer taking the back roads around the U.S. rather than the interstate highways. It's a more interesting trip and doesn't seem to take all that much longer. Oh, and I also have some French ancestors, way back before they went to England with William the Conqueror! All of that is so fascinating. I think we retain memories of certain things in our DNA, and I've always had an affinity for things both French and British. Turns out, that's where most of my ancestors are from! That stove is lovely, and what a find! Sometimes, things are just meant to be.

    The pink in the cottage cracks me up every time. I think the finished cottage needs something as homage to the pink. Back in the 80's, I painted a bathroom in a rental that pepto color. It was still better than the previous blue grey color. The poor people who rented after me tho.😂😂

  • @marilizevandermerwe8343
    @marilizevandermerwe8343 Před 4 měsíci

    I had the most gruesome spy movie playing through my head watching Lincoln carrying the crates to the van with those firm stern steps of his, his glasses beard and jacket creating the atmosphere, you talking about picking up bodies and then the long beautiful countryside pictures of France. Then talking about the fearful neurotic Americans just at the right time in the movie in my head. haha. You know how to give good clues for a great narrative.

  • @peterwhite9261
    @peterwhite9261 Před 4 měsíci +1

  • @ShellyBomb
    @ShellyBomb Před 4 měsíci +2

    Hi Amanda: I'm sure you've answered this previously (so apologies in advance), but what did Lincoln do for a career prior to your move to France? I ask, because he seems to know everything about construction & renovation work. Okay back to the video ... 😉

    Thank you very much for showing your chateau and your everyday life there! Lincoln is such a gentle person of a few words and he is so productive and diligent in his work - not that you are not, you are too!. Lincoln and you need to wear a waste support belt as you both are lifting heavy stuffs days in and days out... so not to be sorry later. While I much admire your work and dedication, I do really think you need a full time helper as it is really too much for you two.

    I bought a La Cornue CornFe for my Tuscan home. I design the space around this stove. Had to pay full price at Williams Sonoma. It looks and works great! I have had trouble with the ignition system. Apparently, the electronic unit is a cheap Chinese part. It’s the double oven model. The convection cooks in one third of the time. The left oven has all modes.

    I just joined and think your design aesthetic is fabulous. Yes it’s taken quite a while to get there, but eventually with each room you do you get closer to completion. Well done!
