Hi Deidre ! I read your blogs everywhere - I really love your writing..and I check luxist and sometimes tvsquad and read your blogs on a regular basis. I usually stick to the estate home blogs which I just enjoy 'dreaming' about. I thought maybe this is right up your alley - pictures galore, massive home...definitely should take a peak and maybe this is worth blogging...
