    Palindrome Healing Center from “Flaked”

    ‘ Some images just stay with you.  When I came across these MLS photos of a Venice Beach home on Curbed Los Angeles back in 2008, I practically started drooling and the words “real estate porn” immediately came to mind.  The pictures of the dramatically unique Moroccan-inspired dwelling, especially the ones of the meandering pool,…

    Christmas Tree Lane

    ‘ Last December, I blogged about a house in Altadena known as the Balian Mansion, or, as I like to call it, the real Clark W. Griswold house (pictured above).  And even though the mansion has appeared only briefly onscreen – in the movie Obsessed and in an early episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 –…

    ‘ Ever since I was a little girl, my family has been vacationing at Hotel Del Coronado on the island of Coronado. Hotel Del is a truly magical place – like no other hotel I have ever seen. Stepping inside it is literally like stepping back in time a hundred years to a completely different…

    The Former Site of the “Home Alone 2” Motel

    ‘ One Christmas location that I had been absolutely obsessed with finding for years was the supposed Miami, Florida-area motel where the McCallister family – minus Kevin (Macaulay Culkin), of course – stayed in the 1992 flick Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.  I had always assumed that the place was located in Miami,…

    ‘ One location that I have been on the lookout for for over a year now is the adorable bungalow where Stu Price (aka Ed Helms) and his girlfriend Melissa (aka Rachael Harris) lived in fave movie The Hangover.  I absolutely fell in love with Stu’s home the moment I saw it in the flick…

    John O’Groats Restaurant from “New Girl”

    ‘ Another restaurant that appeared on fave show New Girl that I stalked recently was John O’Groats, a tiny breakfast and lunch café in the Rancho Park area of West Los Angeles.  As fate would have it, a few years back I attended a weekly acting class at the Pico Playhouse, which is located directly…

    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…
