Last night we celebrated Paul's 28th birthday. As is the tradition, we all showed up to his parent's home on Beacon Hill for a feast courtesy of Ezell's Chicken. This year the cherry on top was a Baskin & Robbins ice cream cake decorated with a chocolate volcano and 2 plastic dinosaur figurines.A while back Paul had shared that he wanted to make a laptop case for his 11" Macbook Air out of his old Apple employee t-shirts. I told him I might be able to swing it, given that Abuela is a whiz on the sewing machine and is always happy to help. For a while the shirts just sat in a pile on my bedroom floor until the other day when I realized his birthday was around the corner.
I drew up a design and took it over to Abuela. She did an awesome job constructing it as well as coming up with a velcro seal at the top of the case.Luckily Paul had his laptop with him when I gave him the present. It fit perfectly. Better yet, the Apple icon remained perfectly centered throughout the whole process.
