    Atlas Sausage from “Surviving Christmas”

    ‘ My blog is likely to be light on content over the next month, as I have quite a few trips and excursions planned.  As such, I figured there was no time like the present to begin my Christmas-themed postings.  So here goes.  (I also have a very exciting non-Christmas-related article hitting the blog next…

  • The Starbucks from “The Morning Show”

    The Starbucks from “The Morning Show”

    ‘ I love a good Starbucks location!  I mean, what’s better than stalking and being able to pick up a great cup of coffee at the same time?  So I was thrilled to recognize an outpost of the java giant while watching the fifth episode of The Morning Show, titled “No One’s Gonna Harm You,…

  • Dorothy Stratten’s Former House

    Dorothy Stratten’s Former House

    ‘ True crime has always fascinated me.  One case that I had never followed, though (probably because I was barely three years old at the time the events took place), was the murder of Playboy Playmate Dorothy Stratten in 1980.  When my friends Lavonna, Kim, Katie and Kaylee came to L.A. for a visit this…

    The “Say Anything . . . ” Amphitheatre

    ‘ Sorry to have been MIA the past couple of days.  The Grim Cheaper surprised me on Sunday morning with a two-night trip to Big Bear to play in the snow.  We had an absolute blast scurrying around in the frost and even managed to get some stalking in!  I will be blogging about those…

    The Disneyland Locations from “Saving Mr. Banks”

    ‘ In February (on what turned out to be an exorbitantly crowded day), the Grim Cheaper and I visited The Happiest Place on Earth with Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, and her husband, Keith Coogan.   Since I had just recently watched – and fallen in love with – Saving Mr. Banks, I…

  • Happy New Year!

    ‘ I would like to wish a very happy new year to all of my fellow stalkers!  Since today is being considered a holiday, I decided to take it off, too!  Come Wednesday, I will resume my regular postings.  As was the case last year, because I am writing for several other websites, I will…

  • “Christmas with the Kranks” Studio Locations

    “Christmas with the Kranks” Studio Locations

    ‘ Since I have been on such a Christmas with the Kranks kick as of late, I thought I’d finish out this year’s Yuletide posts by blogging about the movie’s studio locations.  The 2004 comedy was unusual in that it utilized the backlots of not one, not two, but three different L.A.-area studios! The main…

    The El Royale Motel

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago while doing some Valley stalking,  my boyfriend and I happened to drive by a small motel named the El Royale and I immediately recognized it from this page on the Seeing Stars website.   I didn’”‘”‘t watch the Fourth Season of The O.C. (even though I do love me some Benjamin McKenzie!), but…
