Yoda Soda!

The grandparents gave Sam a Star Wars cookbook when they were here.  It's actually pretty cool and has some fun recipes in it.  Some of my favorites are "Hoth Chocolate", "Wookie Cookies", and "Boba Fett-uccine".

Sam's favorite one to say is "Yoda Soda," but he says it "Yooooooooda Sooooooda!"  After procuring all the items I needed, we set about making this recipe.  It turns out that when you have a few tiny cuts on your hands and you fill them with freshly-squeezed lime juice, you really have the urge to yell a few inappropriate words.  Fortunately, I was able to bite my tongue and my kids' vocabularies remain untainted.

Verdict:  Pretty yummy.  However, I could have achieved the same results by buying a 2-liter of 7up and skipped all the hand-burning.  Next time, we're doing 7up and sherbet and they can have a lime wedge for garnish.

The look on their faces makes it totally worth it though (either that or Graham made a potty joke).
