Back in February, As good as its guests reported that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were moving to the Sassafras Estate, nearby our home town in Huntington, Long Island while Angelia films her new movie "Salt". We also told you we would let you know if there were any Brangelina sightings in the area and there were! Brad Pitt was seen buying a few slices at DiRaimo's Pizza, one of our hometown Pizzeria's. Newsday and Life & Style magazine reported on the sighting and got to speak with owner Steve DiRaimo for the details. Brangelina was also seen dining at Bistro Cassis on Wall Street in Huntington Village. I have been visiting home the past few weekends to escape the city and have noticed a growing number of out-of-towners at our local bars- all hoping to catch a peak of Hollywood's "It" couple. Maybe we will be lucky enough to run into the twosome and their clan of kiddie's...

Since they will be residing within minutes of our parent's houses in Huntington and being huge Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt fans ourselves, our curiosity caused As Good As its Guests to do a little research on the Sassafras Estate. Newsday.com said that "The main house has 22,000 square feet that includes eight bedrooms. There is also a six-bedroom guest house and an 11-bedroom staff house. (Need an au pair for the kiddie clan this summer, Brangelina? Call us!) Yearly taxes alone are an astounding $195,000." $195,000 in taxes? Apparently, the owner of the mansion and the Jolie-Pitts aren't feeling the effects of this recession either. Maybe we'll be lucky enough to bump into them at one of our favorite Huntington Village restaurants or at the grocery store (get real AGAIG, they have people who shop for them)... or maybe they will take Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh and the twins for an outing at Caumsett State Park. That will certainly add some excitement to our jogs and photo adventures around the Caumsett grounds. We'll keep you posted if we, or any of our friends have a Brangelina sighting in Huntington and as always, keep those comments and tips coming!
