May the Fourth Be With You

In honor of Star Wars Day, I made a Star Wars meal for dinner.  (Can you tell that Star Wars is big at our house right now?)
Bubble City Jello Mold (Bubble City is where the Gungans live)
Double Lightsabers (Darth Maul's)
I must confess that it took some convincing to post this next picture.  I attempted to create a cake with Darth Maul's face on it.  I'm utterly embarrassed by how it turned out.  Can you say Cake Wreck?
Darth Maul Cake
Despite the hideousness of the cake and the poor nutritional content of the meal, the kids were in heaven.  We might have to make this a tradition.  Minus the cake...

  2. So I must have pregnancy brain because I totally didn't make the connection between the post title and the post until John said it out loud. Clever!

  3. Michael and I think the Darth Maul cake is pretty awesome. And we play a lot of Lego Star Wars video games, so... :)

  4. I love the double light sabers. Great idea! And the cake is great-- at least 50 times better decorated than any cake I've made. :) Yum yum. Despite my excitement about Star Wars Day, I did NOTHING to celebrate it this year. Thankfully no one else around here minded.
