Skylight Books from “Veep”
‘ While we are on the subject of historic book shops featured in Washington, D.C.-based productions (you can read my post on Idle Time Books from A Few Good Men here), I would be remiss if I did not mention a bookseller that popped up on my new favorite show, Veep. The Grim Cheaper and…

The Buhrman House from “Truth Be Told”
‘ I am a firm believer in love at first sight. I definitely had hearts in my eyes upon catching a glimpse of the stunning Victorian where the Buhrman family lived on Truth Be Told. The towering Queen Anne, pitched atop a leafy hill, was striking, to say the least, and I promptly set out…

My Guide to Palm Springs – Coffee
‘ My love of coffee knows no bounds! So I have, of course, visited pretty much every café the Coachella Valley has to offer. Of that group, there are a few standouts. Read on for my list of the very best spots to grab a cup of joe in the desert. As was the case…

JFK and Jackie’s Former Georgetown Homes
‘ Considering how much I love history, I know shockingly little about former President John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline.

The 2018…

The Westlake Village Inn
‘ This past weekend, my fiancé and I decided to take a little “staycation” at a hotel named the Westlake Village Inn located about thirty miles away from where we live.

The New Wilson House on 90210
‘ I can’t even believe I am about to say what I am about to say, but ever since watching Tuesday night’s season premiere, I am absolutely, one hundred percent hooked on the new 90210. While the first season of the show left much to be desired, this past week’s episode was nothing short of…

Màs Malo from “Scandal”
‘ Los Angeles is often ridiculed for having no history – or no appreciation of its history. Demolition of the Ambassador Hotel aside, I don’t find that to be true. There is history – well-preserved history – around pretty much ever corner. You just have to know where to look. Case in point – Màs…

The Stab Premiere
‘ This weekend I dragged my boyfriend out to South Pasadena to do some more stalking of the movie . This time we set out to stalk the Rialto Theatre where the premiere of the movie within the movie, takes place. The interior and the exterior of the Rialto are both featured quite prominently throughout…
