    Weekend Off!

    ‘ Sorry to have been M.I.A. for the past couple of days, but my dad and I spent the end of last week finishing up my closet (pictures to come just as soon as I am done organizing it) and then Miss Pinky Lovejoy, from the Thinking Pink blog, came out to the desert for…

    Taking Another Day Off!

    ‘ I, unfortunately, bit off a bit more than I could chew once again with the post I had planned on publishing today and did not finish it in time.  But I will be back on Monday with a very lengthy article on a very cool location. So until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

    Ugo Café from “The Morning Show”

    ‘ The Season 1 finale of The Morning Show might have been one of the finest hours of television ever created!  It left me equal parts heartbroken, disgusted, and hopeful, with the last few minutes propelling me out of my seat, literally jumping for joy and teeming with spit and vinegar, ready to take on…

  • The Brothers and Sisters House

    The Brothers and Sisters House

    ‘ Got a last week from who wanted me to do some stalking of the house used in the ABC series . I’”‘”‘d actually gotten this challenge once before, but since I had never really watched the show, I hadn’”‘”‘t put much effort into stalking it. But then I saw the house on and he…

    Afton Arms – “The Boys Next Door” Apartment Building

    ‘ A couple of months ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, informed me of a location that he thought was right up my alley due to its vast and storied Hollywood history – the Afton Arms apartment building from the movie The Boys Next Door.  After Mike mentioned it, I attempted to watch the 1985 flick –…

    sidebar at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel

    ‘ Since I am now 100% on Team Speidi, this weekend I just had to drag my boyfriend out to sidebar, the Beverly Hills lounge where the reality TV duo hosted one of their two wedding receptions.  Sidebar, which is spelled with a lowercase “s”, is located  inside of the Beverly Wilshire Hotel – aka the Pretty Woman  hotel – …

    Caffe’ Opera – aka Dog Years Diner from “American Pie”

    ‘ Shortly after selling their house a few months back, my parents moved into an apartment building in Old Town Monrovia.  Since that time, they have become regular patrons of their new favorite restaurant, Caffe’ Opera – the very spot that stood in for Dog Years Diner, the supposed Grand Rapids, Michigan-area hangout of Jim…

    Thornton Gardens from “Funny Girl”

    ‘ I have never been a big Barbra Streisand fan.  Sure, she’s an undeniably talented singer – and actress and director, for that matter – but I’m just not that into music.  And that whole Rosie-O’Donnell-having-to-rearrange-her-stage-to-showcase-Barbra’s-better-side thing really turned me off.  I won’t even get in to her absolutely cringe-worthy Inside the Actors Studio interview. …

  • The Very First Starbucks Store

    The Very First Starbucks Store

    ‘ While this probably goes without saying, the location that I was most excited about stalking while vacationing in Seattle this past May was the very first Starbucks store at Pike Place Market.  As I’ve mentioned countless times in the past – and as anyone who knows me even slightly well can attest to –…

    MK & A’s Alma Mater

    ‘ I must admit that I have long been a fan of the Olsen twins. What can I say – they are my guilty pleasure. Even today I still enjoy renting their movies (New York Minute is a personal favorite!) and, yes, I even have the Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen fashion dolls! LOL Currently, I…
