The Grease High School

The Malibu House from “Spanglish”

The Grill on Main from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”
‘ Last month, while watching the Season 2 episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills titled “Game Night Gone Wild”, I just about fell over when sisters Kim and Kyle Richards (neither of whom I can actually stand) walked into The Grill on Main – a La-Quinta-area eatery that I had been to just…
