Do you have a Star Wars fan in your life? We have more than a few, which is why we're in awe of this Star Wars party hosted by Jenn of justJENN Recipes. She put together a spread of imaginative, nerd-approved snacks, including a drink sure to impress every die-hard Star Wars fan.
What is it?
Blue milk! (If you aren't sure what this is, ask the Star Wars fan in your life.) She also made Princess Leia cupcakes with Oreo cookies for hair buns, "Han" burgers and — our favorite — Carbonite Jell-O, featuring a Han Solo action figure suspended in grape gelatin. We're also loving the watermelon she carved to look like the Death Star.
Despite some complaints that she didn't individually carve Darth Vader's face into each "Vader Patater" french fry, the party was a success. Check out her blog for more photos and recipes for all the party foods.

I absolutely love her site. She's funny, witty, makes several references to gangsta rap, and her food, oy, I want it.
Haha, I've done a star wars party before, with the star wars cookie cutters and a clever Yoda veggie tray made by a friend. Even nerds can unite around good food. :)
I'm a big Star Wars fan. To the point that I had Star Wars cake toppers at my wedding. And no, they weren't a cute Luke and Leia couple. I had C3P0 wearing a bow tie and R2D2 wearing a veil and carrying a bouquet. Here are the pics:

Oh, and the groom wore Star Wars cufflinks. We are freaks!!
BTW, the Carbonite jellp is genius
JustJenn's blog is always entertaining and her cupcakes are delicious and always inventive.
Jell-o is AWESOME! so doing that.
I love this! It feels like home to me :) You must check out the witty blog for more amazing photos!
I am a Star Wars fan since 1977. But, frankly, I do not get the blue milk reference. I have watched these films probably thirty times each. If you know what blue milk is, you are even nerdier than me.
Bantha milk for the win! I've made bantha milk lattes before, which aren't nearly as exciting as it would seem as the espresso turns the blue to kind of a sullied blue-grey. Still, the blue foam and the sheer geekiness of it made up for it!
This is awesome! I would love to eat some of those cakes :) Do you also sell toys online - like http://www.uni-flex.biz?
