Happy Thanksgiving!
‘ I am taking today and the rest of the week off to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family. My mom and I are in charge of dinner this year (it’s my first time ever!), so I’m sure by the time this post is published, I’ll be knee-deep in turkey preparations. I hope all of my…

Happy (Belated) Mother’s Day!
‘ I apologize for being M.I.A. most of last week. My grandma came to town for a five-day visit and, despite the fact that she is 88 years old (!!!), we spent most of our time out and about. I can only hope that I am as spry at that age! Anyway, I will be…

The House from Ben Affleck’s “Men’s Journal” Photo Shoot
‘ If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a hundred times – I hate incorrect filming location information! I recently encountered some erroneous reporting which led me to stalk a site that, come to find out, does not actually have any movie or television connections (at least, none that I could dig up). Hmph! …

When Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I embarked on…

Birthday Visit to L.A.
‘ I am heading to L.A. this week to meet up with my good friends Kim and Lavonna who are visiting from Ohio. (That’s us, along with Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, at Ellen two years ago.) We have about a million fun things planned (hello Disneyland!) and I am extra excited because…

Happy Memorial Day
‘ I would like to wish all of my fellow stalkers a happy Memorial Day. I hope that everyone has a safe holiday and takes a moment to remember those who gave their lives fighting for our country. I will be back tomorrow with a special giveaway and on Wednesday with a new location, so…

SecondHand Wonderland
‘ My BFF Mike, from MovieShotsLA, recently opened a vintage/collectables shop named SecondHand Wonderland in Simi Valley. The boutique’s motto is “Not your average thrift store,” which couldn’t more perfectly encapsulate the place. Mike has accumulated a massive amount of entertainment memorabilia, movie props, sports collectables, magazines and vintage toys over the years, all of…

Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea in Pasadena – One of Joel McHale’s Favorite Hangouts
‘ As I have mentioned quite a few times before on my blog, this stalker absolutely loves herself some Joel McHale. So when I saw that the cutie The Soup host/Community star had been interviewed about some of his favorite SoCal haunts in the August 2011 “The Best of LA” issue of Los Angeles Magazine,…
