    The Canadian Ambassador’s Residence from “Argo”

    Last week, while scanning through Argo to make screen captures for my post on the Veterans Affairs Sepulveda Ambulatory Care Center in North Hills, which stood in for the Tehran American Embassy in the flick, I got completely sucked in and had to force myself to turn the thing off.  Then, the Grim Cheaper and…

    The “Pacific Heights” House

    I have been waiting for this day for months!  Yep, that’s right folks – it is finally, finally time for my annual Haunted Hollywood postings and I could not be more excited!  In honor of the occasion, I have added a Haunted Hollywood category to my site and while I typically only publish three columns…

  • A Visit with My BFF

    A Visit with My BFF

    My best friend, Robin, who lives in Switzerland, just arrived in California for a surprise, last-minute visit.  I am so BEYOND excited, you don’t even understand!  I will be taking the next two weeks off to spend time with him, but will be back on Monday, March 24th with a new post.  In the meantime,…

  • The Daisy – Where O.J. Simpson and Nicole Brown Met

    The Daisy – Where O.J. Simpson and Nicole Brown Met

    I love a good true-crime podcast.  One that recently got me hooked is Confronting: O.J. Simpson with Kim Goldman, which just finished its first season.  In it, the sister of murder victim Ronald Goldman interviews numerous key players in the so-called Trial of the Century, including jurors, prosecutors, witnesses and one of the defense team’s…

    The Warner Grand Theatre

    This past Saturday, my family and I returned from Catalina Island via the Catalina Express high speed catamaran that docks in San Pedro Harbor.  When the captain announced that we had finally reached our destination, I suddenly realized that a filming location I have LONG been dying to stalk was actually located in the very city where we now found ourselves! …

  • The Magic Castle

    The Magic Castle

    Happy Halloween!  I can’t believe the season is already coming to a close!  October 31st is always bittersweet for me because, though my favorite holiday, it marks the end of my Haunted Hollywood postings for the year.  For my last go round of 2018, I thought I’d blog about one of Los Angeles’ most iconic…

  • The Central Park Boathouse – Where Carrie and Big Went Swimming

    The Central Park Boathouse – Where Carrie and Big Went Swimming

    One of my very favorite episodes of (oh, who am I kidding – every episode is my favorite episode!) was the Season Three Finale when Carrie decides, after much deliberation and a big fight with Miranda, to meet Mr. Big for lunch. Just before the lunch, Carrie promises Miranda that no matter what happens she…

    Blockbuster Video from “The Holiday”

    I cannot believe that Christmas is only two days away!  This whole month (year, in fact) has flown by!  Sadly, this will be my last post of the season (excluding one that will run on L.A. magazine’s website on Thursday).  I will be taking the rest of the week off to do some last-minute shopping…
