by The party for my cousin Bill Kaelin, who won the 2019 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, finally happened this past weekend. It was postponed twice due to the pandemic, but we got to celebrate last Saturday. I only took a few pictures and they didn’t come out well, but here they are, such as they are.
This is the view of the tables and the glittering settings as we entered the dining room.
This is my and my sister-in-law Robin Horn in our gowns.
A shot of one of the gowns I loved (there were many, I love fancy gowns, it turns out).
This is the Nobel Laureate jumping up and down for joy at the end of the evening (we were all dancing). That is my brother Douglas to his left. It was a magical evening, and my cousin is such a lovely person.
Wow, what an evening!! You look FANTASTIC! Love your dress(es)!! Congratulations. No surprise–awesomeness runs in your family!!
Thank you!!
I’m so, so glad you got to go to this party, finally!
And I agree with the commenter above, you are nothing short of FABULOUS in that dress!!
Thank you!! I do have some regret that I didn’t make more of an effort. Next time. Yes, the next time someone I know wins the Nobel Prize.
