    The “Four Christmases” Church

    ‘ Due to the fact that Christmas movies filmed in the L.A. area are few and far between, I typically only compile about five holiday-themed locales to blog about each year.  (If I could swing an entire month of Christmas posts, believe me, I would.)  This year was no different and because there are only…

    The Dakota

    ‘ Today is the 28th anniversay of John Lennon’”‘”‘s death, so I thought I would devote today’”‘”‘s blog to him. I have never really been much into music (my idea of a music icon is Britney Spears, if that tells you anything!) so I was never a fan of John Lennon or the Beatles. My…

    The Griffith Park Merry Go Round from “The Mentalist”

    ‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk for almost two years now, ever since November of 2008 when it appeared in the Season One episode of The Mentalist titled “Seeing Red”, was the merry go round where Patrick Jane (aka Simon Baker) lured murder suspect Travis Tennant (aka Noel Fisher).  The only problem…

    Maddox’s School

    ‘ Even though I am 100 percent on Team Aniston, while I was in New York, one of my obsessions was finding Maddox’”‘”‘s school. I was really hoping Brad and Angie would be in town and I could just park myself in front of the school and wait for a sighting. 🙂 But, for this…

    ‘ I have been on the hunt for the Chuck E.

  • The “Object of My Affection” House

    The “Object of My Affection” House

    ‘ The Object of My Affection is my least favorite of all the Jennifer Aniston movies. I remember watching it in college and being thoroughly disappointed. I mean, come on, it has to be one of the crappiest movies ever made. But if we’”‘”‘re being honest here, has she ever made a good one? LOL…
