On Sunday, I attended High Tea at the Carlyle with my friend Chloe. It was a Columbia University alumni event, and we sat at the table with my good friend Erich and his partner Mark:

Here are Erich and Mark sampling a cup of tea (which was surprisingly hard to come by since the wait staff kept offering us coffee.) Then they posed prettily for the camera:

Including the brilliant and fantastic Dean Peter Awn:
I snapped a photo of him from afar like a creepy stalker girl. But I do adore him, because he’s done so much for our little college.

And then I stalked other people:
Overall a great event. Complete with crust-less cucumber sandwiches!
