Cannot Wait for Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew
By Ann Magnuson
As if A&E's Intervention wasn't already manna from heaven, VH1 premiere's it's new addiction reality show tonight at 10 p.m. Every channel should have it own recovery programming (remember The Recovery Channel that played on one of the cable stations from 10 p.m.-2 a.m. every night? Why in the world did they cancel that?) But VH1 has something Intervention doesn't -- Dr. Drew!
If this review in Variety is right VH1 will surely have a hit on it's hands!

I, Chocolate Whore
By Ann Magnuson
I knew I had a problem but I didn't know how damned unmanageable it was until earlier this week when I went to L'Artisan du Chocolat! One of Silverlake's best kept secrets, this small chocolate shop is tucked away behind the giant Public Storage high rise at Beverly & Virgil (at 3364 West First St.). Maybe that isn't even technically Silverlake anymore? I don't think it's Koreatown. Maybe it's in that weird Twilight Zone where only hardcore chowhounds and eccentric nannies like Mary Poppins go to corrupt young children and/or get the monkey off their back. I know that after this last trip I'm hooked on their Pave Noirs (the China White of chocolates!).
