Same-sex marriage is legal in Vermont as of today and to celebrate, Ben & Jerry's has renamed its Chubby Hubby ice cream flavor "Hubby Hubby" for the month.

In April, the Green State became the fourth in the nation to allow gays and lesbians to marry.

"From the very beginning of our 30 year history, we have supported equal rights for all people," Walt Freese, Ben & Jerry's CEO, said in a statement. "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."

Chubby Hubby snapped this shot of a Full English breakfast while out to brunch with his wife, reviewing a restaurant. A Full English breakfast, also called a fry-up, is oily, fatty, filling and basically the perfect way to get breakfast started if you are one of the following: English, don't worry about cholesterol, or - according to a number of very insistent people - are trying to recover from a hang-over. The components of the meal will vary slightly from place to place, but they generally include almost all of the following: bacon, fried eggs, baked beans, sausages, tomatoes (fried), mushrooms (also fried), toast , juice and tea or coffee. Personally, I feel full just looking at this picture for too long, but if you're ever had a good fry up, or been at the table when one is served, you probably already know that the smell is good enough to overcome feelings of fullness. You might want to try whipping one up at home on a weekend morning, though you also might want to consider going for a little jog around the block before you do.
