Dinner Party #5: April Fools Dinner

As is usually the case, this post is both late, and not in chronological order. But it's here nevertheless. On April 1st 2006, after placing a brief but hilarious happy-birthday phone call to Jeff in Toronto, I hosted 11 of my section-mates to dinner, assisted by John (of course), as well as Clemens Guth.

I won't bore the readership with the details, it went off much like the others: 3 courses, considerable wine consumption, music selection and speakers provided by Alex (in absentia), and great laughs provided by everyone.

Afterwards, we headed up to the rooftop of my building for a party that was already underway, thrown by another section-mate of ours. All things considered, it was a big night.

Also worth mentioning that I imported a Toronto tradition for the first time by hosting 6 people for brunch the following morning. That shall now be a permanent part of the formula...great times.
