  • Via Quadronno from “Sex and the City”

    Via Quadronno from “Sex and the City”

    ‘ Nothing makes me miss New York more than photographs of croissants.  That’s a weird sentiment, I know – especially considering I don’t even really like croissants.  But during one of my first trips to the Big Apple, I dragged my family to Upper East Side café Via Quadronno for breakfast after coming across a…

  • Peter and Elizabeth’s House from “White Collar”

    Peter and Elizabeth’s House from “White Collar”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I have yet to watch the final season of White Collar, despite the fact that it aired almost a full two years ago.  We became hooked on the USA series back in 2011 after I attended a screening/Q&A with the cast – so hooked that we were devastated when its…

  • The Derby from “Book Club”

    The Derby from “Book Club”

    ‘ They say that laughter is the best medicine.  For me, it’s laughter coupled with stalking.  While recovering from a minor surgery last October, I hunkered down in bed for a couple of days watching movies.  The flick that brought the most healing was easily Book Club thanks to both its humor and the fact…

  • The Marilyn Monroe Theatre

    The Marilyn Monroe Theatre

    ‘ Want to see the story of Marilyn Monroe live on stage? are available from BarrysTickets.com now! A few weeks ago while out driving, I pulled my car to a screeching halt when I noticed a large sign reading “The Marilyn Monroe Theatre” on the side of a building in West Hollywood. I had never…

  • Thorne Hall from “The Holiday”

    Thorne Hall from “The Holiday”

    ‘ If I had to pick a favorite movie character it would be Arthur Abbott (Eli Wallach) from The Holiday.  There’s nothing about him that I don’t adore – his kind heart, his wit, his charm, his championing of Iris Simpkins (Kate Winslet).  And there’s no scene that makes me cry more than the one…

  • George Reeves’ Former Home

    George Reeves’ Former Home

    ‘ Another location that has long been woven into the fabric of Hollywood lore is George Reeves’ former Benedict Canyon bungalow, where in the early morning hours of June 16th, 1958 the Adventures of Superman star was found dead from a single gunshot wound to the head.  The events surrounding his death have been the…

  • Pete’s Tavern

    Pete’s Tavern

    ‘ Yet another Sex and the City location that I stalked while in New York last month was a spot that touts itself as New York’s oldest continuously operating bar and restaurant.  And while there are actually quite a few watering holes claiming to be New York’s most long-established, Pete’s distinguishes itself thanks to the…

  • “The Vanishing” Apartment Building

    “The Vanishing” Apartment Building

    ‘ Today’s location is an oldie, but goodie.  Waaaaaaaaaaay back in May 2010, the Grim Cheaper and I took a little pre-wedding stalking vacation to the Pacific Northwest to visit our good friends fellow stalker Kerry and her husband, Jim – and to see the grocery store where Michael Buble’s “Haven’t Met You Yet” music…

  • All Marilyn, All the Time!

    All Marilyn, All the Time!

    ‘ I dragged my mom to Hollywood last Friday to do a little Marilyn stalking. She wasn’”‘”‘t too keen on the idea, but I was absolutely dying to do something I had yet to do in all the years I have lived in LA – I wanted to put my hands in Marilyn Monroe’”‘”‘s handprints…

  • Happy Thanksgiving!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    ‘ I am going to be taking the rest of this week off to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family, but I will be back on Monday with a whole new location.  I hope all of my fellow stalkers have a fabulous Thanksgiving holiday! Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘
