    The Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco

    ‘ Last Sunday morning, after checking out of the spectacular San Francisco loft where my bachelorette party was held, my friend Nat and I headed over to the historic former Presidio Army Base to stalk the recently-opened Walt Disney Family Museum.  Knowing what a Disney freak I am, Nat figured that the museum would be…

    Ray Raymond and Dorothy MacKaye’s Former House

    ‘ I have been told that I am ridiculously easy to buy presents for.  Anything pink or sparkly, dainty and gold, or having to do with Los Angeles automatically fits the bill.  Some gifts are so perfectly suited to me when it comes to the latter category, in fact, that I have received them on…

    The Complete Guide to “Jerry Maguire” Filming Locations – Part I

    ‘ Few romantic comedies appeal to both sexes. Even fewer are responsible for adding instantly recognizable catch phrases to the lexicon. And fewer still remain engaging and poignant decades after the fact. Jerry Maguire is one such film. Amazingly, the Cameron-Crowe-directed flick turns twenty today!

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I are finally getting around to landscaping the backyard of our new house, so to say I’m into gardens lately would be an understatement.  If I knew how to use Pinterest (I swear I cannot figure that site out), I’d be pinning foliage design ideas left and right.  Instead I’ve…

    New York Public Library

    ‘ Finally saw on Sunday! I literally could not sit still in my theatre seat until the movie began I was so excited!! I must say the movie was not as good as I hoped it would be. 🙁 There were parts I absolutely LOVED and times when I felt like I was visiting with…

    A Tour of Rockhaven Sanitarium

    ‘ Well, here it is – my final Haunted Hollywood post of 2014.  Sad day!    Last September, I stalked an abandoned mental health institution named Rockhaven Sanitarium where Marilyn Monroe’s mother, Gladys Baker Eley, spent almost a decade and a half of her life.  Due to the fact that the place was gated and…
