‘ I have a major affinity for unique architecture. So when I came across this CurbedLA article about the Lawrence and Martha Joseph Residence and Apartments, a grouping of Storybook-style structures in Culver City colloquially known as the “Hobbit houses,” I just about foamed at the mouth. The complex looks like something straight out of…

Hilton Pasadena from “The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training”
‘ I always love it when a filming location sneaks up on me. This past weekend, the Grim Cheaper and I headed to Pasadena to attend the closing party for my favorite store, Lula Mae. (Yes, you read that right – Lula Mae, my happy place, is, sadly, shuttering later this month. While I am…

‘ Back in early August, Drew Barrymore aficionado Ashley, from the Drewseum website, challenged me to find the large pink mansion belonging to the Cooper family – Sylvie (aka Sara Gilbert), Darryl (aka Tom Skerritt), and Georgie (aka Cheryl Ladd) – in the 1992 thriller Poison Ivy.

‘ This past March I wrote The Complete Parks and Recreation Guide to Los Angeles for L.A. magazine. At the time of the posting, though, I had yet to visit every location featured on the list.

Lacy Street Production Center from “Stitchers”
‘ They say the third time’s the charm, but I attempted to stalk today’s location on no less than ten different occasions before finally being successful!
