Last night I went to one of the strangest parties I’ve ever been to. It was also one of the most fun. A few guests (myself included) were assigned to be “team captains,” and we were told to invite another guest (my guest, obviously, was Kendrick) and choose a team theme/costume. Ours was Christmas Caesars (or, as Kendrick dubbed us, Yuletitus Andronicus), mostly because I thought a toga sounded like a pretty easy costume and I’ve never worn one before.

For a first-time toga-er, I did a fairly good rigging job, no? In retrospect, though, I would have made my life easier had I gone to tieatoga.com (yes, that site exists), which describes basic methods.

(By the way, Lucy down there is wearing one of Aunt Julia’s gifts! Too cute.)
