Star Wars Cook Book: Wookiee Cookies

I know we don’t post a ridiculous amount of books on this site, but how could I resist posting something with a subtitle of “Wookiee Cookies”? Well, as you can see, I couldn’t. So here is the Star Wars Cook Book: Wookiee Cookies and other Galactic Recipes, that I found on geeksugar.

It is a little known fact that every single Star Wars Fan on Earth, actually, needs to eat just as much as those who do not like Star Wars (yes, there are people out there who do not like Star Wars, but rest easy, they aren’t trying to convert anyone to their twisted perspectives). So what better way to mend together your inate desire to eat food, with  your love of Star Wars? Well that’s easy, cook yourself a plate of Bobba Fett-uccini and some Wookie Cookies and turn on The Empire Strikes Back.

Jar Jar Binks Salad

A few years ago, I attended a school designed to teach cooking & presentation, and my favorite part of the course was the garnish. We had instructors that could make a watermelon look like a bouquet of roses straight from the garden. So, naturally, when I saw this Jar Jar Binks carved from a jimaca root, I was excited.

Ken posted this amazingly detailed Jar Jar Binks Salad on Cooksden, lamenting that if he had carved any other character from Star Wars, he wouldn’t have wanted to cut into it with a knife. There is a detailed how-to in the article, and no worries, you won’t have to go buy a million different kinds of knives to pull this one off yourself.

Yoda Crochet Doll

If you didn’t think Yoda could be considered cute, you haven’t gone to Dawanda and looked at this adorable Yoda Crochet Doll by deadcraft. Complete with over sized head (for maximum cuteness) and little tiny Yoda suit, this is one Star Wars key chain that has all the best elements: cuteness, geekiness and portability.
