A few weeks ago, LL messaged all of us about throwing her husband, Mike aka Eyeris a surprise Star Wars/Pixar themed birthday party. Mike is like the biggest Star Wars/Pixar buff.
Eh, the last birthday party was 3 years ago leh so I was understandably excited!
Finally the day arrived!
# – Luke, I am your father.
We managed to pull off the surprise. Mike came home dripping in sweat from his badminton session while carrying his fresh laundry to a bunch of howling friends, hehe.
# – SURPRISEEEE!
# – Mike with LL, Grill Sargeant Lance and Mel (who are getting married soon wheeee!)
# – All that’s missing is a bonfire.
# – Kerol and Yuks.
# – LY and KK.
# – The only person who bothered to dress up, Fireangel – resident bar wench. She makes amazing cocktails and other alcoholic related goodies. She offers her service to private parties too, just hit her up at her Facebook page.
# – Of course, must haz booze.
# – KY, Fireangel, Sashi & Horng….drinking bitch piss with gold flakes.
# – Ken, LL’s brother passing out.
# – Kaitlyn also passed out…but not cause of booze. Kendrick engrossed in watching Cars 2.
# – Cake out!
# – Birthday man and a cleaver. Don’t think there’s any reference to Pixar or Star Wars…he’s just being a cina laopek.
Now to the food. I offered to cook, praying and hoping LL would let me. And she did! Yay, thanks LL! :D
I googled for Star Wars food puns. Found quite a few and narrowed the list down to match what I was planning to cook. Hubs and I also came up with 2 original Star Wars food puns (at least we think we did!).
I haven’t been cooking properly for a while now so I really relished the opportunity!
# – Ham Solo Sandwich.
Basically using potato buns I got from a bakery, which I halved and then stuffed with loads of ham, mature cheddar & spices, then baked with a home-made mustard glaze.
# – Lardsabers….I thought of this name one, hehe.
Skewered pork sausages wrapped in bacon with canned cubed pineapples. Didn’t even need seasoning.
# – Bobba Fettucini.
Lemon and parsley fettuccine with loads of bacon.
# – R2Pea2…Gareth the hubs came up with this name.
Initially, the plan was to make mushy peas but it became buttered peas with lettuce.
# – Vaders Potaters.
From chips to roast potatoes to the final outcome – chilled potato, gherkin and egg salad.
# – All the dishes. Mike’s brother, the Grill Sargeant Lance also whipped up two other dishes…awesome sticky sausages and a OMFG cheese casserole despite being an Orang Kurang Upaya (busted his Achilles tendon). Respect!
As expected, I made too much food. But it’s okay coz Mike and LL didn’t have to worry about meals for the next few days.
Aged to Perfection…hells yeah!
Happy birthday in advance, Mike!
