Maybe an unpopular opinion (I hope it’s not!), but a woman having multiple sexual partners is absolutely fine if she’s not in a committed relationship. Calling Natty a bleep just because she was on Tinder while alone in the middle of nowhere is pushing all my wrong buttons! And I’m no Natty fan!

Some of y’all need to chill out with the internalized misogyny. 😑

Karma, whoring around can be fun ( I did it) but a black hem will still be needed. In gay circles, bleep can be used for men or women. No misogynistic intentions.

BTW, I am trying to push the Nazi’s buttons, not yours.

😃
 
What was in that huge box that Fanny gave to Amoury for Christmas?

Why is the shower cap that Fanny was prancing about unwrapping gifts in ,on the kitchen table?

Nazi's ring.... Well there is so many tastes. I find it kitchy - is that what you want to look at for the rest of your life.

I did a little research and learned something new, still doesnt jusify the kitchiness of it


What does toi and moi ring mean?

you and me

This centuries-old engagement ring dates to 1796, when Napoleon Bonaparte proposed to Empress Josephine de Beauharnais with the first 'Toi et Moi' ring. Meaning 'you and me' in French, this classic style comprises two diamonds or gemstones; sitting side by side on a band to represent the meeting of two lovers.

It's a stressful, tricky process! I managed to do it once, got chastised by the gods about the title I chose; never again.
Huge props to @ComtesseRose for your tireless work!

I would have told him to take the ring back to Emmaus and get a proper engagement ring or there would be no toi et moi.

Christmas Eve menu -- thank you @tuffiti for posting the Patreon videos, hope you're feeling better.
Watching and listening to Tante talk about the Christmas Eve menu was disgusting. I'm a foodie and I've never heard anybody talk about a menu or a festive feast in that way. Please note how people respectful of food and fabulous festive traditions talk about it -- like @Tea with lemon -- as opposed to Tante and her mini pizzas and sausage wreaths, with Fanny interjecting no, let's just buy the desserts.

Kinda goes with the drunken blonde howling, O Night Divine while propping herself up on someone else’s husband.
Here is the proposed menu, I didn't see the mini pizzas or the proposed pates on the gross buffet table nor hear of the pulled pork until after.
This is all rich punter food for drunks, like second-rate Disney Euro cruise line all you can eat salad bar food. It's like a cheesy pub menu. The only thing missing is nachos, which the pulled pork represent.
Bacon wrapped scallops
Dates with goat cheese
Sausage roll wreath
Prawn cocktail
Salmon snowflakes
Bao buns with cranberry sauce
Pulled pork with onion
Smoked mackerel pate
Duck pate
Mini quiches
Mini pizzas
Tomato bruschettas
Chocolate mousse with cassis jam

I'd go a different direction.

I'd go for a big fresh water fish terrine, which is what the Berry is famous for.
The most delicious of which is actually gefiltefish.
I'd serve it with red horseradish.

I am taking George the V's 1912 Ghillie's Ball menu as inspo, light and rich, super festive, and totally French.

re menu, have you noticed how Fanny tends to spend, she saves on the peasants and tries to show off in front of her Cambridge friends, any other chateau owners, and mummy, but tends to let the guests (including her extended family) eat crappy food

At her biggest parties, no meat is served.
The only thing that's missing from the drunks' Christmas Eve buffet is a big greasy beef. To go with the pulled pork. Which in America, I have to tell you, at $2.29 a pound for shoulder roast, is kind of like a ranch lunch dish for the peons.
I have to admit, I'm still not over the mini pizzas. I didn't see them on the table, but who over 9 years old serves pizza at a Christmas party?

Absolutely agree, I've been a mature single woman with a healthy sexual appetite and I'm in no way embarrassed or ashamed of it. Consenting adults not hurting anyone else, have at it! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Oh and I wore a white dress at my second wedding. Not a big floofy thing but something quite casual, a one shouldered grecian style dress.

The food in the dump is the most awful I have ever seen! They only serve the cheapest proteins, unless it’s for the inner circle. Thank god Dana was in charge of meat shopping for the bbq, otherwise madam would’ve bought a rack of cheap pork and a bunch of sausages and called it a day!

I guess she expects people to fill up on grifted chocolate and shortbread biscuits; that’s the only thing that can be found in abundance in the farmhouse!… that and zucchini 😆

As I recall, the disgust shown about this was that it was during the pandemic lockdown and she was allegedly out meeting these men, rather than judging her looking for sexual partners.
