Erin, They say a picture is worth a thousand words but the pictures of your home really can't convey the overall feel of love that you have put into your home. Just like being in our own home and we used every room inside and out. Really didn't cook but I can say that there wasn't anything that we needed that you didn't have available. You are the consummate hostess and your home is lovely and comfy-cozy. Sad that we couldn't have stayed a few more days but rest assured if the opportunity presents itself to visit LA again we will definitely check with you for accommodations.
