    Stalking the WB – For the Third Time!

    ‘ As I’ve mentioned a few times before, this past October, my good friends from Switzerland came to visit my family for a few weeks.  While they were here, I decided to take them on a Hollywood studio tour.  The only problem was I couldn’t decide exactly which Hollywood studio tour to take them on.  So,…

  • Julia Child’s Childhood Home

    Julia Child’s Childhood Home

    ‘ One of the best things about being a member of the Screen Actors Guild is that each and every January all guild members receive, often without notice, DVDs of various movies that have been nominated for an upcoming SAG award.  These DVDs are doled out “for your consideration” so that members can watch them…

  • Elliott Bay Cafe – The Inspiration for Cafe Nervosa on “Frasier”

    Elliott Bay Cafe – The Inspiration for Cafe Nervosa on “Frasier”

    ‘ Another location that I stalked while visiting the Pacific Northwest this past May was Elliott Bay Cafe – the Seattle-area coffee shop that was the inspiration for Cafe Nervosa on the hit television series Frasier.  I first learned about this location from my good friend Nat, who in turn learned about it a few…

  • Katherine Heigl’s Apartment Building from “The Ugly Truth”

    Katherine Heigl’s Apartment Building from “The Ugly Truth”

    ‘ A few months back I received an email from a woman named Marilyn (love it!) who wanted to know if I could track down the apartment building where Katherine Heigl lived in the 2009 romantic comedy The Ugly Truth.  But because I am not a big Katherine Heigl fan – I just think the…

  • The Water Street Cafe from “Love Happens”

    The Water Street Cafe from “Love Happens”

    ‘ Just down the street from the former Tabu Boutique, the storefront that masqueraded as Eloise’s Garden in the 2009 movie Love Happens which I blogged about yesterday, is Water Street Cafe, the upscale restaurant where Eloise Chandler (aka Jennifer Aniston) and Burke Ryan (aka Aaron Eckhart) ate dinner during their extremely awkward first date…

    Honeymooning in Cabo!

    ‘ Well, as you can see by the above photograph, I did it!  I am currently a married woman!  The Grim Cheaper and I finally tied the knot – after what amounted to close to ten years of dating! – this past Saturday evening in Malibu.  Yay!  And one of the Grim Cheaper’”‘”‘s very first duties as my…

  • The Street Where “The Hills” Finale Was Filmed

    The Street Where “The Hills” Finale Was Filmed

    ‘ One location that I have been on the lookout for for a couple of months now is the street where Kristin Cavallari said good-bye to on-again/off-again boyfriend Brody Jenner in the final scene of the series finale of fave show The Hills, which aired on July 13th of this year.  For whatever reason, though,…

  • Only In L.A. . . .X

    Only In L.A. . . .X

    ‘ Unfortunately, I don’t have a full blog to post today because it’s currently 11:15 p.m. and I just walked in the door after landing at LAX a few hours ago after spending a whirlwind weekend in the Pacific Northwest where I stalked for literally 72 hours straight with my good friend and fellow stalker…

  • Mayo Clinic – Here We Come!

    Mayo Clinic – Here We Come!

    ‘ Because I spent all day Saturday en route to Minnesota to accompany my dad to the Mayo Clinic and because I spent all day Sunday STALKING the Twin Cities (I stalked a record 18 locations in all), I had no time to write a blog post for today.  So, I am taking the day off,…

    Amanda’s House from “The Holiday”

    ‘ I thought I’d mix it up a bit today by forgoing blogging about one of the many Pacific Northwest locations that I stalked while in Vancouver and Seattle two weeks ago, in order to write about a residence that can be found right here in the San Gabriel Valley – the mansion which belonged…
