Vacation Homes of the Stars
‘ Since the early 1930′”‘”‘s, Palm Springs has been a favorite desert oasis for the Hollywood elite. With its perfect winter and springtime weather, fabulous shopping, and beautiful desert ambiance, it’”‘”‘s not very hard to see why. While visiting the desert this weekend, I dragged my boyfriend on my very own little stalking tour of Downtown Palm Springs. Much to…

Marilyn Monroe’s First, and Last, Home
‘ Just finished another excellent book about the life and times of Miss Marilyn Monroe. The book, , was recommended to me by a staff member at – even though it is currently out of print – who said it was the definitive biography about the star. See why I love that bookstore?!? 🙂 Anyway,…

Hamburger Hamlet from “Parks and Recreation”
‘ Halfway through writing this post, I realized I probably should have saved it until February. At that point, though, it was too late to start over, so I figured c’est la vie. Here goes. A few years ago, when I first saw the “Galentine’s Day” episode of Parks and Recreation, I recognized the restaurant…

Frankie’s House from “People Like Us”
‘ As I mentioned in early November in my post about Henry’s Tacos, I did not especially love the 2012 movie People Like Us as I found it to be a bit too depressing. What I did love, though, was the fact that the flick was filmed in its entirety in L.A. So after watching,…

Hyatt Westlake Plaza from “The Karate Kid”
‘ 2014 was definitely the year of The Karate Kid. Not only did the flick turn thirty, but two of its missing locations were finally found – Mr. Miyagi’s house, which I blogged about here, and the fictional Encino Oaks Country Club, which, as it turns out, was actually the Hyatt Westlake Plaza hotel in…
