    Go Team Kristen!

    ‘ Ever since first came on the air, I have been a HUGE fan of Kristin Cavallari. So LOVE her!!! And tonight I actually got to meet her!!! I am still pinching myself! My boyfriend and I headed to Hollywood today because I was completely intent on going to celeb hot spot the Tropicana Bar…

    The Old Towne Orange Starbucks from “That Thing You Do!”

    ‘ “We met at Starbucks.  Not at the same Starbucks, but we saw each other at different Starbucks across the street from each other.”  So says Meg Swan (Parker Posey) about meeting her husband, Hamilton (Michael Hitchcock), in the 2000 comedy Best in Show.  (You can watch the hilarious scene here.)  Meg might well have…

  • The Adamson House

    The Adamson House

    ‘ I spent all last week on the hunt for a location from my fave 90s TV show Beverly Hills, 90210.  The spot I was looking for was the location that stood in for Baja, Mexico in the Season 2 episode entitled “Mexican Standoff”.  In the episode, Brenda sneaks off to a Mexican resort town for the weekend with Dylan without telling…

  • The Royal Laundry Complex from the “As Long As You Love Me” Music Video

    The Royal Laundry Complex from the “As Long As You Love Me” Music Video

    ‘ Friends often refer to me as a “foamer,” i.e. a person who foams at the mouth over all things Disney.  Apparently, I am not a very good one, though, because up until just recently I had no clue that for the past thirteen years the Disney Store has been headquartered at the Royal Laundry…

  • The “Sex and the City” McDonalds

    The “Sex and the City” McDonalds

    ‘ Today’s location is a bit of a fail and a lucky twist all in one.  My mom always says to trust in the universe – and she’s right.  Things happen for a reason.  This locale – easily one of my most-wanted ever – is proof of that.  I am a pretty simple girl when…

  • Fred 62 from “Commander in Chief”

    Fred 62 from “Commander in Chief”

    ‘ Before I begin today’s blog, I thought I would post a clip of the game I played on The Ellen DeGeneres Show last week.  I just have to say here, too, that going to see the show was a FABULOUS experience and I highly recommend doing so if you are in the area.  I…

  • Another . . . Day . . . Off!

    Another . . . Day . . . Off!

    ‘ Because I spent all day yesterday with fellow stalkers Lavonna, Beth, Melissa, Kim, and Sandy, who were in town from Cincinnati for a little stalking vacay, and Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, I did not have time to write a new post for today.  But I do promise to be back…

  • The Envelope Emmy Week “Mad Men” Screening

    The Envelope Emmy Week “Mad Men” Screening

    ‘ Ever since fellow stalker Mikey, from the Mike the Fanboy website, invited me to be his plus-one for the SAG screening/cast Q & A of the FX television series Justified back in late May, I have been all about attending similar-type events.  So when he told me about an Envelope Emmy Week screening/roundtable of…

  • The Phillips Mansion

    The Phillips Mansion

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper always tells me that it is not about the destination, but the journey.  He’s right.  Getting lost can have its perks.  While driving around looking for Spadra Cemetery (which I blogged about on Friday) a couple of weeks ago, we happened upon a seemingly abandoned mansion set back from the road…

  • Rye Playland

    Rye Playland

    ‘ Another location that fellow stalker Owen visited a few weeks back while spending the day in Rye, New York was the amusement park featured at the very end of the 1988 Tom Hanks movie Big.  Rye Playland, which is also called Playland Amusement Park or just simply Playland and is run by Westchester County,…
