Having my birthday and celebrating Star Wars at the same time is a fun way of doing something special for myself where I definitely don’t have to be the adult for one day. It’s a nice break from the responsibilities of day-to-day life, stress and everything else in between.
And yes, wherever I am, whatever I am mixed up into, I made a pact with myself that this day will be my free day - forever. I will not work, I will not think, and I definitely will not adult on this day. And I’ll do whatever I can prior to this day so that Andy doesn’t have to do anything else either.
But this is about Star Wars.
So whether you're hosting a movie night, just want to impress your friends with some out-of-this-world cuisine, or you’re like us this year just enjoying a couple’s day indoors and having a Star Wars marathon while wishing we were in that universe, these recipes will definitely transport you to a galaxy far, far away.
From Wookiee Cookies to Bantha Kabobs, there's something for everyone in this culinary adventure. So, grab your lightsaber and get ready to embark on a delicious journey through the Star Wars universe!
But enough with the chit-chatting! Let’s get to it!
