The “Fancy” Music Video Party House
‘ I have never been very “hip” when it comes to music. If it’s not sung by Michael Jackson, Michael Buble or Britney Spears, chances are I haven’t heard it. So it should come as no surprise that when my friends Kim and Lavonna visited this past June and were singing the Iggy Azalea hit…

Charlie’s Angels
‘ I must admit that I absolutely loved the first Charlie’”‘”‘s Angels movie, so when I found the location of the headquarters of Charles Townsend Investigations in my stalking tome last weekend, I just had to stalk it.

Dottie’s House from “A League of Their Own”
‘ I am pretty sure Penny Marshall had some sort of direct line of sight into my soul. The late director was behind several of my most beloved films. And not just movies I enjoy, but ones I find incredibly poignant, moving and enduring – productions that left a mark on my heart and invariably…

Greystone Mansion
‘ While most mansions in Beverly Hills are well hidden from prying eyes thanks to tall gates and large trees, there is one that is open to the public on a regular basis and it’”‘”‘s called Greystone Mansion.
