I don’t really care which films won an Oscar. I have enjoyed them all! Upon seeing the stone cottage and the vacation home at Martha’s Vineyard, I am reminded of just how charming those places are. I really prefer them to the “big” house. Thanks for posting. I come back to your blog time after time!

Love,
Susan and Bentley

Fun quiz! I got 7 out of 10. I recognized the 8th one, but I had no clue what it was called. Out of the list, my favorite homes are 2, 4, 5, 7, 9. I can’t wait for the next tv/movie houses!

Julia … I haven’t even tried to guess yet but I wanted to say that I am always SO impressed with the amount of time you take with this blog. It is a labor of love and you do such an amazing job. It really is a treat.

I have said it before, but I’ll say it again, thank you for the time … for “us”.

I could spot the ‘Something’s Gotta Give’ Hamptons house a mile away!! That is one of my fav movies, mostly because of the house :) I think it upstaged Jack Nicholson at times!!

This is a great idea for a quiz.

You really do put a lot of work into this blog and it shows.

Thanks for the good work.

Darn! Only 1 right outta 10 (the houseboat from Sleepless…). I did recognize a couple, but had no idea where they were from. Great quiz!

Julia, I got 7 out 10 right! Only Parent Trap is because I’ve watched the movie SO many times. The rest were because I’ve been reading your blog. :)
