Darth Vader Would Have Flipped...Darth Vader Spatula!

And I thought Williams-Sonoma was a serious brand! This geekery is laughable. Debatable if Darth Vader would actually like this product- on one side, it is an honor; on another, you flip pancakes on his face. Either way, the Star Wars fanatic in your life will love it.

They really should come out with a set- Chewbacca Spatula, C3PO Balloon Whisk, R2D2 Ladle, & Yoda Pie Cake Server. It could be a hit! I would be the first in line to buy it for my dad...not me, of course. My favorite characters are the Ewoks anyhow. Stop judging. It could be worse, three words: Jar Jar Binks.

The Selfish Gift...Baking Kits!

Whether it is whoopie pies, doughnuts, or even the traditional cupcakes, Sur La Table offers some incredible baking kits for that passionate baker you know that keeps you fat and happy. Everyone has a friend or family member that always has something brewing in the oven that creates a delicious waft in the house that cancels out any disgusting pet odors.

In honesty, this is a bit of a selfish gift- he or she bakes, and you eat. It doesn't get any better than this. To add a twist, make a date of it. You give it, you bake it, and the giftee eats it. This is especially cute in regards to couples.

Word of caution, give this gift to your giftee when you two are alone; otherwise, you will have family you didn't even know come out of the woodwork begging for a taste.
