Look what I found!
I was on a delightful television program in 1996! It was called “Dream Living”; and it was about people who live in their Dreamhouses.
I had seen our house in Pasadena when I was 13 and was determined to live in it someday. And I DID!!
It is kind of blurry, but it is a delightful story and the hostess Jody Daley, was a delightful hostess!
A few of my friends have seen this scrolling around in hotel rooms. I was thrilled to find it on a thumb drive!
I hope you enjoy it!
It was filmed right before we decided to move to Montecito!”
I remember this program! It was the first time I had heard of you. Being a fellow Francofile, I was enchanted! I had this on a VCR tape somewhere. Now we have no where to plat it. I have looked for pictures of this Pasadena house on Pinterest, but couldn’t find it. I have followed you sonce that time.
Oh my goodness! What an enormous compliment! I am completely astonished! I cannot imagine a bigger compliment!
I am so glad I found this and decided to post it! I haven’t posted a blog in such a long time! I wonder how you found it! My subscriber list became “contaminated” by spammers; so I had to start over at square one. I was so discourged!
I will start blogging again…..I have some new stories to tell!!
Thank you so much for this comment. It means the world to me.
I wish the quality had been better but it didn’t matter – this was delightful! Thank you for posting it! Susan (a/k/a @the_mrs.ramsay)
There may be a way to improve it; but I don’t know how!!! It is 22 years old! Thank you, I am so happy you enjoyed it!
This was such a treat to watch…you and your beautiful home are simply stunning! I found you through the one and only Contessa and have swooned over your posts…j’adore the decor, gardens, French coop, et. al. in this journey into the past. I would love to send you my two children’s books…a common raven named Noir who speaks French and a blue and gold macaw named Taco star in The Time Seekers and a v. smart cat and dapple dachshund AND chickens who rule the roost in a special coop star in The Fantastic Tails of Sammy & Mr. Chips. The Contessa has read both and loved them–they are books for ALL ages…if you would email me your mailing address, I will have Taco & Noir deliver!! Debbie
Oh my what a find! I so enjoyed watching this…how special that you achieved your dream! I have been following you for years and love your style. I can see how so much of the Pasadena home was carried over to your beautiful Montecito home. I hope that you are now back in your home and any repairs are complete, and you can sit back and enjoy the holidays to come!
Thank you so much!
We are back, and so grateful. Only house on the street.
