what's in a name?

from Vicky S:


Hey, I had to make a toga for my 5th grader this year too! Trip to the fabric store, the whole works.

But...actually I had to make a costume for Hippocrates (my son was playing him in a "wax museum" exhibit at school). I thought a toga was in order. Little did I know the GREEKS did not wear togas--it was the ROMANS.

My poor son.

Add to that, for his table cover he brought to school was a wool blanket with an Aztec print.
