In 'Cadeaux at the Chateau', all of the inhabitants of the Chateau de Lalande gather together to open beautiful gifts that people have sent from all over the world. All of the monetisation from these videos will be donated to a different charity each month. CZcams earnings fluctuate wildly each month, as ad revenue changes throughout the year. Here are the charities that we've donated to so far:
July 2020:
British Heart Foundation UK (in memory of my father) €634
August 2020:
Alzheimer's Research UK (in memory of all of the residents of my parents' nursing homes) €350
September 2020:
Prostate Cancer Foundation (in memory of Selmar's father) €1255
October 2020:
Medecins sans Frontieres (chosen by my mother to support vaccinations in Africa) €942 (equivalent to 426 cholera vaccinations)
November & December 2020 & Jan & Feb 2021:
A Lalande Fashion Scholarship for a student at the Villioti Fashion Institute in South Africa €5500
March 2021:
Suffolk Artlink (amount to be confirmed at the beginning of April)
I used to show the gifts as part of 'The Chateau Diaries' episodes, but you're all so very generous that we have many gifts, and if we spent the episodes opening them, we wouldn't be able to show you other aspects of chateau life! So, for those of you who enjoy watching presents being opened, and as a way to thank those of you who were kind enough to send them, I've made this new channel. Every week we will film your beautiful gifts whilst enjoying afternoon tea or aperitif together.
It is very important to me that you know that we in no way expect anyone to send us gifts. I would like to go further than that and add that, if doing so will put you in any financial difficulty whatsoever, please, please do not send us anything. Knowing that you join us by watching 'The Chateau Diaries' gives us all an enormous boost. But for those of you who have sent these incredibly thoughtful gifts, I hope that seeing us open them gives you a fraction of the joy that you've given us, and that by monetising this channel for charity we can pass on that joy to others 💖💖💖
If you would like to see more of our life at the chateau, please go to our main 'Chateau Diaries' channel:

I think Neil also sent you the fabulous case of champagne a year or so ago. And now he's gifted you a large box of luxurious self care items.
Neil, if you are reading this--well done, buddy! Such joy you give to Stephanie and the laLanders. 🥂🍾🎆
You are a very generous person. Makes my heart feel good to know there are people like you in this world. Take care Neil and be safe.
So very generous and a fellow qvc fan I think 😊❤️
Nati you are amazing. Poise, humor and able to look good in anything, even a tea cozy! What a fantastic lady.
🥰🥰🥰 thank you Gene for your sweet words!! 😘😘
@@vino140And what urge compelled you to comment? If you don't like it don't say anything and just go away.
Mummy. A lady like Stephanie doesn’t spring up out of nowhere. She is a credit to you and her father - who must have been the most wonderful of men. God bless.
i agree john
Agreed!
I miss Izabelle so much.🌷🌷🌷💞
I do too. I really wish she and Percy could come back soon.
I miss them too!
Oh the chapel looks so lovely in the background!
It really stands out
With all the 'puzzles' that Philip has to repair, it will be a 'piece-full' evening 💖
Hello Stephanie from Ontario Canada. I must say..the view of the chapel is absolutely stunning now that the trees have been cleared!
Natti is such a natural on camera...always an attentive expression beautiful smile always fitting for the moment.
Nati should never be behind the camera she deserves to be next to Stephanie always
I agree she has grace! I love that about her :)
Selmar, you are so gentle and I cannot believe you have only been at La Lande for a little more than a year. You are so much a part of the special fabric of the chateau. It is treat to have such a gentle soul for all of us enjoy and learn from your soft demeanor.
All the laughter is so wonderful!! The peacocks, the seductive cologne, the tea cosy hats, and again all the wonderful laughter!!! Truly lifts the spirits... everyone at Lande brings something special! A delightfully bunch!!🤗🌸
How could you ever get along without Phillip. I wish he had been here from the start. He was a quiet mouse and is now is the funniest one there. Thanks Phillip for finding Lalande!!!!!!
@@annskaggs4475 , I really love Michael too!!!
@@vino140 ann skaggs is very anti Michael quite sad really
@@annskaggs4475 Michael and Stephanie are still close friends, so give your uncalled for remarks a rest
The hairstyle you choose for today Stephanie makes you look even more young and beautiful than usual ,love it!!!:)
Truly I agree 100%!
Wow how lucky you are to get Elemis from Neil. I love Elemis and its very expensive stuff! What a generously gift! ❤️
The chapel really stands out now with the trees removed. Well done. L.
Love the peacock invasion!
wonderful sound effects - didn"t know they could make such amazing sounds! interesting seeing the gentle lover of woodland creatures being so firm and no-nonsense while directing them out LOL
Yellow skirt looks great on @Nati 😊
What a lovely lovely afternoon watching Stephanie open gifts is so delightful she is so excited about all of the generous gifts people send from all over the world , it is a testament to Stephanie and all the lalonde family for their love of life and the joy they bring to all of us 🇨🇦😎💗
😂 Selmar - the seducer water comments were so funny 😂 😂. And Nati and Stephanie getting excited for cold weather . The Lalanders are all so funny 😆, those tea cozies 😆 😂. Philip is so naughty in this vlog 😆
Selmar, good to see you back! Comfort and seduction in one vlog.🤗
To quote the great Billy Connelly, "Never trust a man who, when left alone in a room with a tea cosy, doesn't try it on".
I laughed so long and hard that my face hurts! It's not a tea party until someone wears the tea cozy on their head like a hat. So many treasures, so many well thought out and ingenious gifts. You have brightened my life again. Thank you all. I can't wait to see the Bridgerton Party outfits!!!
Wishing all at LaLande a very happy Easter Monday
happy easter germaine
Stephanie, you look stunning in that dress, and your hair looks so pretty styled that way! I love watching you all when you’re all together. You and Phillip especially are so funny and have such a sharp wit. I hope you are feeling better. Bless you all!
Absolutely agree, Jodi
I agree as well. Does anyone know where Stephanie got her beautiful blue and red dress?
I have those glass containers with the taps and they are great with lemonade or homemade ice tea. when they are full with liquid, just unscrew the lid a little so that it pours better.
Always a wonderful hour at Cadeaux at the Chateau. The joy opening gifts, laughter, and appreciation are uplifting. My tea is ready. Peacocks in the house....funny how bold they are.
I had a gas with the "redirecting" of the peacocks. Amazing.!
“ but they speak french!” this is true…. think about it. any “pet” hears what their “parent” says. they associate words they hear into activities, not a direct translation. i once babysat a dog that “spoke” Bulgarian. had to get a leash to may sure he was under my control. my english was not gonna cut it! we both survived. 🦩🦚
I love how you all get along with each other. Kindness and love shows.
The latest fashion craze taking France by storm... the tea cosy hat.!!
Always fun to see what accessories or apparati will go on Stephanie’s head every Cadeaux.
The Leclerc cookies are made here in Quebec, and the chateau featured in chocolate is the Chateau Frontenac in Quebec City.
I had to call my hubby in and rewatch this opening with him. Those cookies are a staple in our lunchroom at work!
Yes indeed!
Thank you for a lovely evening and lovely to see you all out on the veranda in the sun xx🥰🥂🍾☀️
Loved , loved this segment..all the laughter and happiness made my day ...thank you all. Xo
Selmar particularly touched by Julie's story... darling peahens coming into the cool...
One of the best 'Cadeaux' programmes ever!...Philip could quite easily pursue a career in comedy
Love, love, love all the fun of this cadeaux. Pain level rather high today and watching all of you having such a good time really helps. And seeing all the 'pretties' too. Merci! Merci!💗
Another fun vlog!!! It’s amazing how people send things and then Stephanie says.....I was going to buy that or that’s something we talked about needing or how did “they” (gift giver) know this would match/go with a certain room in the chateau. I think after people watch your vlogs they really get a sense of the chateau because Stephanie describes everything so well and what her thought is for a particular project, etc. Thanks for the laughter today...I needed it....😂😉💜🙏
🏰 Stephanie, your assistant Natalie is wonderful❣️.... She always has you on top💝.... She has been a great, loyal, kind, caring, patient, dedicated, supportive employee, friend & companion to you!!!... Also to everyone there!! 🥂🏆⚜️🥰. Natalie, Thank You💌.... BestWishes to you always🎁🌷.....👱🏻♀️Cindy
The gifts and cards were once again outstanding 👏👏👏, especially those hand made cards made by Amy 👏👏
Le petit chien attend son cadeau car même les animaux aiment les petits cadeaux. Vos ette tousse merveilleux ! Merci Bien * Kara / Montréal, Québec.
You can make sun tea in those large jars.
Wonderful, I haven't enjoyed a video so much, seemed so lovely and light hearted! I'm sure someone mentioned but @39:26 a gift wrapped in pink fell, looked to be part of Isabelle's gifts that were tied together. Thank you for the wonderful warm moments in this video, it was just a treat! Take really good care, much love Kathy x
Purdy’s chocolates! You need to know what you are getting! A Chocolatier family from Vancouver BC Canada making Chocolates since 1901. Excellent quality ingredients, and not too sweet! So sad Phillip can’t try the hedgehogs... they are so delicious. Ps they use only sustainably grown cocoa. I toured their factory several times for the rich aroma and the free chocolate sample! ( why not? I lived close....)
Can’t wait to see all of you again. You are such a blessing. So positive and loving. ❤️. Greetings from John in New Jersey
May i say how handsome Selmar looks! damn! Guapo!! i would love to dance salsa and tango with him. and look at that purple drink !! omg. i missed you guys outside, i miss mummy tho. greetings from México!!
I love seeing Selmars whole face again. I like the clean shaven face.
@@karlasmit7535 me too!!! i agree
24 degrees!! This was one of my favourite Cadeaux ever. As Selmar said, there is so much love when you get together and it's delightful to see you and the wonderful people that send you gifts. The gratitude and living energy extends to everybody who has the privilege of enjoying this moment with you. Thank you
I can't express how much joy you give me... A constant smile... From Tulsa Oklahoma...
Selmar is looking so handsome these days, .......women look out!!!
He does. I have a feeling some lucky lady has stolen his heart already
OMG I never laugh so much with gifts opening. Thank you. You are truly incredible. Love you all. Greatings from Portugal
I love people who wear tea cosies as hats.
Test the seal with water first in the sink with the beverage service to make sure it is tight enough before serving your good stuff...Note to self wish I had known that before a wedding!!
I love Stephanie’s hair in this video! It looks so beautiful! And I love how the peacocks like to come inside the chateau! Perhaps they just want to check out all of the peacock themed items that have been arriving as gifts...it was they themselves who inspired them! 🦚
Oh my gosh, I laughed outloud so much! Especially when Selmar was sharing his cologne gift and Philip was talking about his dad! Thanks for the laughs!
Stephanie your hair looks shorter to me. It looks so cute and bouncy!
The Leclerc cookies are good for smores. (You'll thank me later)
They really are the best aren't they, we call them 'cheater s'mores.'
I swear I can never sit through any of your vlogs without seriously laughing out loud. You all are so much fun to watch.
just love how you say Mommie , so endearing. Can tell you really care and respect her. My younges son calls me that from time to time.
Selmar I was waiting a long time to hear that humour from you- but it was so worth it...lol ♥It is great to see everyone out in the sunshine and relaxed...we are still working toward spring out here in "Upper Canada" not green yet.♥
We have sassy Selmar today and it's awesome
Selmar looking very dapper
I missed chat today...Have visitors while getting treatment...thank you all for the good wishes...prays and great vibes.....
Hi Loki hope your treatment went well sending hugs 😎
Loki, thinking of you and sending you good vibes!
happy easter to all lalanders
Happy Monday....it’s Lalande ☺️🌷💕
Ohhh the happy laughter!!! 😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️
This one made me laugh so much - Selmar the Seducer, Philip's superb unboxing skills, and the tea cozies! Too funny!
So good to see Selmar back .love the tea cosy hats .what fantastic gifts 🎁
Hello everyone .Good evening from Italy.
Bueno sera
Selmar melts my heart. His face when the heavy box was dumped on Stephanie .... he had such concern for her, he is such a gentleman and I hope isn’t been overshadowed. Stephanie and Nati genuine excitement when opening presents is endearing.
Nati... for my first drink... I'll take this bottle!
Happy Monday! I hope Easter was amazing!
awe....that was so nice! You all had such a lovely evening and I felt so happy too, that you allowed me in to watch. Blessings and good will to all.! Looking forward to tomorrow!!
Love the tea cozy hats!!!........and the wonderful laughter!
What a fun filled hour
Lol... Selmar: Ö dö Södöctör (Eau du Séducteur)
My Mum fancies Selmar, we were both very taken by his shirt in this video! 😍 x
I like Selmar's sideburns. It looks nice.
Those toques don’t look like jellyfish but jelly mould salads😂!
Edit: tea cozy !😬
Look forward to tomorrow's Easter vlog! As usual I laughed a lot during this video! Thank you!
Yet more wonderful gifts! Such a great shame about the teapot and lid but with Philip’s powers of restoration, it’s will be brought back to former glory!
The Ian😊😊😊 came, everyone is so inspiring, love the other cards and presents!!! Selmar is so funny!!!
Sooo polite to ignore the gift.. until the card is read.x
the Chapel is marvelous!
As the handle to the teapot is damaged you might insider sending it out to a professional restorer so that it will be structurally sound.
Wouldn’t be good for a glued back handle to give way when the pot is full of hot tea. Gluing will be fine if it’s just used for display however.

There are so many amazing gifts, especially the beautiful art pieces, it would be a wonderful idea to start a registry of what gifts were received by whom. Same for all the cards and notes, these could be kept now as part of the “Chateau de Lalande Archives” as they are now contributing to the history and beautification of the Chateau. Just a thought.
Beautiful gifts and beautiful day! Enjoyed. Love to all ❤
Stephanie you look like yourself again. You look rested and healthy.
Love your great weather! "Spring is here, why does my heart go dancing?"...Richard Rodgers. The chapel is now highlighted by all the light! I love it. Albert...in Richmond, Missouri USA.
Oh how hilarious! Phillip you were so strong to open the Spode forks! What JOY! It made me laugh out loud! Thank you Stephanie! You are the Best!
Ring light will be great to use when Isabell Skype’s with you. 💖💖🇦🇺
The seduction cologne looks like it's similar to YSL Op**um. I adore woodsy citrus scents. Love the magnolia scent too! Nati's yellow skirt was meant to be.
The chocolate covered biscuits the lady in Canada sent you make the best s’mores ever....
Yes Phillip, the outfit is you!!! You taste is vast and should be respected, your artistic side is awesome!!!
Marie can use the spray dispenser for Halloween. She could be Glenda the good witch and use that to oil the Tin Man( Selmar)
OMG the Bowes Museum...my favourite memory was the silver mechanical swan housed at the Bowes...so so awesome.
Hi Stephanie! The château on the cookies is called Le Château Frontenac and it’s situated in the city of Québec. It’s actually an hotel!
Vino, rude.
@@vino140 general information! It’s a beautiful building in a beautiful city!
The Chateau Frontenac was also the site of the Quebec Conference during WWII between Churchill, FDR and our Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King.
Philip I know the smell “it smells like my Daddy”
Oh...Father 🤣😂🤣
🤢😂
@@philipjanssen 🤣😂🤣😂 between the puns and some of these lines ... it’s been priceless “I look like a fortune 🔮 teller” 😂🤣 can’t wait to see your Easter suit done I’ve seen a couple glimpses of the Bridgerton outfits 🤫
@@philipjanssen I so enjoy watching you! Thank you for being so sweet!
Oh my goodness you all made me laugh so much over the tea cosys, especially Selmar when he starts laughing. Stay safe all of you. Cant wait for the next vlog.
