    CSI: Pasadena

    ‘ My dad is not a big fan of Hollywood. And by Hollywood I mean the industry, not the town. He can’”‘”‘t stand all of the overindulged, self-absorbed actors, even though his own daughter is one (minus the overindulged, self-absorbed part, of course). 🙂 He just barely tolerates my stalking and often asks me why…

    I am in love – and his name is Don Antonio!

    ‘ Like most everyone who watches, I, too, think Spencer and Heidi from are complete douchbags – but I still had to go find the restaurant they seem to visit on every episode – Don Antonio’”‘”‘s.   It was easy enough to find with a simple Google search and, with camera in hand, my boyfriend and I ventured out there one Friday night.   It…

    The Stuart Building from “That Thing You Do!”

    ‘ Back in early October, upon returning home from doing some That Thing You Do! stalking in Orange (you can read my posts on the locations I stalked here, here and here), I popped in my DVD of the 1996 flick to re-watch it for the first time in years.  I was absolutely shocked –…

  • The All American Burger from “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead”

    The All American Burger from “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead”

    ‘ I was devastated to learn back in early 2010, thanks to fellow stalker Amanda, that The All American Burger on Sunset Boulevard, which masqueraded as Clown Dog restaurant in 1991’s Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead, was being turned into a Chipotle Mexican Grill.  I never expected that the historic eatery was going to…

    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…

    ‘ Last weekend, while lounging by the pool in Palm Springs, I happened to open up People Magazine’”‘”‘s 100 Most Beautiful  issue and almost fell right off my lawn chair when I saw a pic of my girl Chelsea Handler posing at fave restaurant Rae’”‘”‘s in Santa Monica.  🙂  Chelsea was featured as one of the magazine’”‘”‘s “Pretty…
