The ultimate Star Wars cake
I saw this wonderful cake come across the wire today and just had to post it. I’m not the biggest of Star Wars freaks, but I love the movies all the same. This cake, commissioned by the bride Rebecca Dudeiros, was created by a chef named Teresa Ulrich. The cake shows a lovely cut of the movie where the AT-AT was taken down by the rebellion. It turned out wonderfully in my eyes, but the little Ewoks seem a bit freaky to me to eat. Let’s just hope they aren’t red velvet cupcakes, because that would just plain raise the creepy factor. Awesome job!

The ultimate sled for the Star Wars fan
…although there won’t be very predictable results when you go downhill.
Some of the most fun in college I had was when we had a snow/ice storm and the ground was completely covered. My friends and I just got it in our heads that we should head on over to Pullen Park (the park next to campus) and go sledding. Growing up, we always used the standard sled with the wooden slats and the metal rails that you waxed to go down a hill. Well, being the poor college students we were and not having access to a car, we had to improvise. We located some old cardboard boxes and crushed them down until they were in three layers and then shot ourselves down the hill. It actually wasn’t bad…until we hit roots…or a ditch that then served as a ramp launching us into oblivion for a crash landing on our tailbones. But the sheer fun of not being in control made sledding much more enjoyable for me. With that being said, it seems like this company has made a sled that can have that much fun and also look geekily cool at the same time. Who wouldn’t want to fly down a hill on the Millennium Falcon? And someone needs to buy this to see if it can do the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs for me.

I found the perfect gift for my nephew
…being that he loves Star Wars and all.
I could just imagine him waking up to a nice piece of toast that my sister fixes for him and having Darth Vader’s helmet burned into the toast. How cool would that be? Oh wait, my sister doesn’t cook…hmmm, maybe she can at least attempt toast! But, if he wants to grow big and strong, he needs to at least ingest the dark side of the force!
