Star Wars Under the Stars

It's that time of year again, where Will and I have our own personal Screen on the Green. We bought a projector (instead of borrowing it from work constantly) and have perfected the sheet-as-screen-stabilized-with-old-ladder-and-tree setup.

We discovered that two of our friends have made it into their early 30s and late 20s and HAD NEVER SEEN THE ORIGINAL STAR WARS. Gasp! Will and I felt that we had to remedy the situation immediately. Good thing we had the proper equipment. Last night, we had several friends over, fired up the grill, and drank cold ones as we watch Luke and Hans rescue Leah and then defeat the Death Star.

And the best part? No, not blowing the minds of the friends who had never seen the movie, but the Kelly-Miriam dessert combo. I made the ice cream (two choices: vanilla or chocolate mint), and Kelly made the cookies.

Yes, DARTH VADER ICE CREAM SANDWICHES!

Don't you wish you were here last night? Yeah, that is what I thought. Good thing we have the "Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi" ready to show and more Vader sandwiches are at the ready. Movie time begins at dusk.
