Celebration is in Order

Congratulations to Vermont!

Marriage equality began last night as the clock struck midnight. I am so excited for all of my Vermont friends who can now be legally married, and have their marriages recognized.


Even if you're not in Vermont, you can celebrate with Ben & Jerry's, as they're renaming Chubby Hubby, Hubby Hubby for the month of September.

"At the core of Ben & Jerry's values, we believe that social justice can and should be something that every human being is entitled to," Ben & Jerry's Chief Executive Officer Walt Freese said in a statement. "From the very beginning of our 30 year history, we have supported equal rights for all people. The legalization of marriage for gay and lesbian couples in Vermont is certainly a step in the right direction and something worth celebrating with peace, love and plenty of ice cream."

I couldn't have said it better myself.
