Thank you for being an awesome guest and I hope you had a lovely birthday, Kathi! I wish you would have dropped me a note, as there is a full BBQ utensil set in a zippered case on the shelf in the laundry area (on the corner shelf to the right of the remote control candles), and a drawer with two spatulas, two sets of tongs, wooden spoons, and more utensils in the kitchen (the drawer directly to the right of the silverware). I'll have to add that to the house manual for future visitors. I apologize that I didn't get to meet you, as I was under the weather and didn't want to expose you all to it. Hope that you come back again as we'd love to host you again! -Lauren
