afternoon tea

i have some serious high roller friends. i get invited, on a pretty regular basis, to some high-swank affairs. take for instance an afternoon not too long ago...

i was told to wear my best jewels... i was not told to look semi pregnant in this picture. that was just a bonus.

 the guests had some pretty high expectations of what a 'fancy' tea consisted of... to aid us in that endeavor there were only english accents allowed. everything sounds fancier when you speak like the english. i wonder if they use american accents when they want to sound like slobs. probably. how embarrassing.

 our hostess admitted in a spot on english accent none the less "i don't really care for tea, but i do like drinking things out of faaancy cups, so i like tea parties." honesty is always the best policy.

 the paparazzi was everywhere...

 it's hard keeping up with all these grand events i get invited to. but really... my social life has never been better. :)
