The Self-Realization Fellowship Lake Shrine Temple
‘ Another location that I stalked while my good friend Nat was in town a few weeks ago was the Self-Realization Fellowship Lake Shrine Temple – a ten-acre public oasis located on Sunset Boulevard in Pacific Palisades that was established by spiritual leader/Kriya Yoga guru Paramahansa Yogananda in 1950. Because Nat is a dedicated yogi,…

Entertainment Recommendations to Beat the Shelter-at-Home Blues
‘ These definitely are some uncertain, scary times, to say the least. The one silver lining to my dad’s recent hospital stay is that I binged a lot of TV, read quite a few books and listened to a bunch of podcasts, which means I have a slew of new entertainment favorites to share with…

Halloween 2017
‘ I’ve made no secret of my love for Big Little Lies over the past couple of months (you can read my many posts on its filming locations here, here, here, and here), so it should come as no surprise that the HBO miniseries figured into my and the Grim Cheaper’s 2017 Halloween costumes.

Barnsdall Art Park from “Big Little Lies”
‘ The Grim Cheaper is easily the most creative gift-giver I know. Not only does he find incredibly thoughtful presents, but he always comes up with highly unique ways of presenting them.

Book Soup from “Bewitched”
‘ I am a total bookstore junkie – as I’ve mentioned numerous times on this site. The rest of the world seems to be leaning in the opposite direction, though. Still I was shocked – and saddened – to learn of the recent shuttering of the Barnes & Noble on the Third Street Promenade in…

The Elvis Honeymoon Hideaway Tour
‘ My knowledge of Elvis Presley is basically limited to the fact that he was a singer (duh!), his 1957 drafting into the army served as the inspiration for the play and movie Bye Bye Birdie, he called a spectacular Tennessee mansion named Graceland home (the manse is the setting of one of my favorite…
