Happy Independence Day, no one!

So today is July 4, which is a super totally huge deal if you’re American. I really wanted to do something special for them until I remembered that all of negative-five Americans actually read a Toronto-based blog on a Canadian gay alternative weekly’s website (I have no actual proof to back this up). But at the same time, I couldn’t really do anything else now that Pride is over, and I really didn’t want to disappoint all my fictitious American readers. Also, I was super tired from posting picture after picture after picture last night. So today, in honour of Independence Day, here’s a video of an adorable drunk trying to bake an apple pie. No, it’s not Sandra Lee. I said ADORABLE drunk. ADORABLE. Happy America, everyone!
