The Force is Strong with These Cookies - Fun Ideas for Father's Day

I was trying to think of some good "cheap" gift ideas for Father's Day and I stumbled upon the following.

There are some prerequisites to these gifts:

1. The father in question must be a nerd (or a closet nerd).
2. The person giving the gift must also share nerd-like qualities.
3. You must be cool with passing along nerd-like tendencies to your children (if it was not passed down in the DNA already)

Fun idea #1:

Star Wars Cookie Cutters. You can work with your kids to make the cookies. I'm pretty sure mine will never look like the photo but it will still be fun to try. They also have pancake molds, but I swear those things do not work for me and the molds always just look like blobs.

Available at William Sonoma for $19.95

Fun idea #2:

In keeping with the Star Wars culinary theme why not bust out a Star Wars cookbook for a Father's Day diner?  

Wookiee Cookies: A Star Wars Cookbook is a spiral-bound recipe book featuring such crowd pleasers as Han-Burgers, Crazy Cantina Chili and the Jabba Jiggle (aka: lime Jell-O).

The recipes are easy to prepare, tasty to eat, and what better way to introduce your children to one of the greatest stories ever told.
