Today is a special day. It’s my brother-in-law’s birthday, and my sisters and I stayed up till 2 a.m. last night making this iPhone cake. By the time midnight hit, our hands were caked in fondant and black dye. Our minds clearly left the room by then too, because we started thinking up things like Cheetos and Bruce Lee apps.
If you can’t figure some of the apps out, just ask and I’ll answer. It was a looooooong night.
Happy Birthday Justin!
The Beatles have a birthday song for you.
