  • Stalking San Diego

    Stalking San Diego

    ‘ Spent this past weekend in Coronado, a small island off the coast of San Diego, with my family to celebrate Father’”‘”‘s Day. My best friend, who lives nearby, came over to spend the day with me by the hotel pool and when she got there she mentioned that she was a “bit afraid” to…

    Crumbs Bake Shop from “90210”

    ‘ Another location that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to see while doing some stalking in Beverly Hills two weekends ago was Crumbs Bake Shop, the popular cupcakery which appeared in the Season 2 episode of fave show 90210 titled “What’s Past is Prologue”.  Crumbs has been a veritable institution in the Beverly Hills…

    New York, New York!

    ‘ Well, today I am heading to my other favorite coast – New York City – for a short vacation! Since I won’”‘”‘t be blogging for the rest of the week, I am leaving you with a few of my favorite NYC stalking locations!  It’”‘”‘s actually quite possible I have found more filming locations in Manhattan…

  • Eloise’s Garden from “Love Happens”

    Eloise’s Garden from “Love Happens”

    ‘ Another location that I was dying to stalk while in Canada last weekend was the storefront which stood in for Eloise’s Garden, the flower shop owned by Eloise Chandler (aka Jennifer Aniston), in the 2009 romantic dramedy Love Happens.  I found this location thanks to fellow stalker Owen, who has amassed quite an extensive…

  • Dr. Mott’s House From “The Hand That Rocks the Cradle”

    Dr. Mott’s House From “The Hand That Rocks the Cradle”

    ‘ Another The Hand That Rocks the Cradle location that I stalked while vacationing in the Pacific Northwest this past May was the ultra-modern abode which belonged to Dr. Victor Mott (aka John de Lancie) and his wife, Peyton Flanders (aka Rebecca De Mornay), in the 1992 thriller.  Amazingly enough, I didn’t actually remember the…

  • The Former Site of the “Home Alone 2” Motel

    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,…

    ‘ I would like to extend a very heartfelt thank you today to all who have served this great country of ours, including my grandfather (that’s him above during World War II), my dad, my uncle, my father-in-law, my cousin, my brother-in-law, my grandfather-in-law, and several of my friends.  I hope we all take a…

  • Hotel Del Coronado

    Hotel Del Coronado

    ‘ 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…

  • New York’s Paley Park

    New York’s Paley Park

    ‘ New York has no shortage of “secret” places.  I blogged about one – Grand Central’s Whispering Gallery – on Friday.  Another that the Grim Cheaper and I are fond of is Paley Park, located in NYC’s Midtown East neighborhood.  We happened by the site while wandering along 53rd Street during our very first visit…

  • Falcon Lair – The Former Estate of Rudolph Valentino

    Falcon Lair – The Former Estate of Rudolph Valentino

    ‘ Way back in December of 2009, I got an email from a fellow stalker named Todd who wanted to know if I had any information on Falcon Lair, the former Rudolph Valentino estate which he had heard was in the process of being torn down.  Amazingly enough, before receiving Todd’s email I had never…
