A couple of weeks ago we got to spend a sunny week in Los Angeles, visiting our friend {& private chef extraordinaire} Chloe and staying at a cool home ~ the quintessential LA pad with a pool, a sunny outdoor patio, lined by giant bird of paradise, a vintage record player ... and a pink piano. Some fun days of soaking in the SoCal sun, catch up with LA art exhibitions, peak into the new Gjusta Bakery and ending with a treat ~ Friday night dinner cooked by the one and only Chloe ...
