My Guide to L.A. – Shopping
‘ If there is one thing I love almost as much as stalking, it’s shopping – and shopping in Los Angeles is in a class all its own. When I first moved to SoCal in 2000, I found myself in retail heaven. The city boasts a myriad of cute shopping districts, fabulous marketplaces, and one-of-a-kind…

Strand Book Store from “Sex and the City”
‘ I have made no secret of my love for bookstores on this blog, especially in recent weeks (as evidenced here and here). I literally cannot get enough of them! So when I spotted a book boutique pop up in the Season 2 episode of Sex and the City titled “The Freak Show,” which I…

Mr. Hart’s Mansion from “Nine to Five”
‘ One of my favorite movies growing up was the 1980 comedy Nine to Five. I would watch it on an almost daily basis (no joke!) and practically had the thing memorized. I can still belt out the theme song to this day, in fact. (I am guessing the majority of my fellow stalkers can,…

The Mystery of the “Melissa & Joey” House

Copley’s on Palm Canyon – Cary Grant’s Former Guesthouse
‘ One location that I had been chomping at the bit to stalk for what seemed like ages was Copley’s on Palm Canyon – a restaurant created out of what is said to be Cary Grant’s former Palm Springs guest house. Because the eatery does not open until 6 p.m. each night, though (I am…

Retro Dairy Mart from “Say Anything . . . “
‘ “That’s L.A. – they worship everything and they value nothing.” So says Sebastian (Ryan Gosling) while lamenting the closure of a historic jazz club and its subsequent transition into a samba/tapas place in La La Land. Though I did not like the movie (as mentioned previously), I have to agree with Seb on this…
