My sister is having wedding pie because her caterer is an AMAZING pastry chef and her pies are way better than any cake out there. Also she is getting married in October in Ontario (the week before Canadian Thanksgiving) so it is total pie season here.

I'm standing up in my sister's wedding in October, and I'm obese. Her only requirement for my dress was that she help me pick it and that I look good in it. It was so nice to find a dress that looks nice on me and will help me feel good about myself when I'm up there.

My sister is getting married on October 5th and the whole thing has been incredibly chill. It does help that for work she runs a 4 week classical music festival so planning stuff is her idea of fun.

Agreed! I think there are a whole generation of European Royals who could teach the reality TV stars a little bit about how to make "being famous for being famous" last a good long time.

Currently 6 of the 10 Canadian provinces have female Premiers (read Governors), so that is pretty rad!

We are going to have to let my sister's fiancee instagram the shit out of their wedding in October. He is an instagramming fiend, and I wouldn't be surprised (nor would anyone else who knows him) if he starts taking pictures of my sister from the altar.

Not when you live in Canada and your DNS setting thing isn't working.

I don't have cable so I haven't been watching the Daily Show, but someone recommended The Bugle podcast, and for those worried about going into John Oliver withdrawal when John Stewart gets back you should subscribe, it is so much fun.

I heard that one too but I don't remember wanting to punch, but then again she did complain about headphones.

What I want to know (and maybe you can tell me after reading the memoir) whether I would want to punch Kerman in the face as much as I wanted to punch Chapman in the face, like all the time.

They will be released in 2014. It was about a week after the first season was released (in early July) in a single lump (as is the way with all the Netflix original series) that they announced they would do a second season, so we all have a bit of a wait ahead of us.

I will accept this prize with the solemnity the situation demands. I will now try to find a way to use limnology in every post I make on Jez for the next week.

It's like how gummy candies say "A Fat-Free Snack", that always makes me snicker.

I have been peeing in the Great Lakes for years (well mostly Georgian Bay). As far as limnologists are concerned they are seas, not lakes.

Just don't ever, ever pee in a dry suit ...

As a former (very former) resident of Phoenxville, in next door Chester County, all I have to say is, yay!

Much love. I'm 10 lbs in to what I hope is a 110lb loss (over 18 months) and no one is commenting yet, but I'm totally afraid about this.

My issue is, if "everyone" thinks my size 18/20 ass is too big, why the hell don't you make exercise clothes (and I mean real running spandex not just shitty cheapo yoga pants that fall down) that we can wear so we can exercise in and actually get healthy and maybe loose weight.

My dad always said that my sister would have broken 7lbs at birth if she hadn't taken a dump before they got her on the scale!

And presumably of the Commonwealth as well ...
