It was so awkward. Right? And so then he, this is okay. So I want to pause for a second on this particular storyline, because this is an interesting thing that I heard in the writer's room a couple of times in terms of, how do you best love your plus size family member?

It's a place of love. And that's the important thing to put in it. Not a place of judgment and sort of body shaming or anything like that. It's like, I want my child to be the healthiest version of herself. And I want to sort of break that apart from diet culture, which has a preeminent emphasis on thinness as the sort of... standard result of healthiness.

I remember one year we all went down south. I think we were in Atlanta and we found this beautiful home and big family. We had about 16 of us all in this house and it had four stories and we were able to split it amongst ourselves and the family got a chance to be together. Little cousins playing with each other all under the same roof, ping pong table, foosball table, pool table.
