C-3PSCONES

Via Starwars.com:

THE GALAXY’S MOST HELPFUL PROTOCOL DROID IS NOW A TASTY BREAKFAST TREAT.

Some mornings, you need to treat yourself. Maybe not to an oil bath…but to scones! These lemony C-3PO-inspired scones are fluent in an essential form of communication: flavor. But every droid needs a counterpart, and every scone needs a hot beverage to accompany it. The R2-D2 Coffee Press from Think Geek (pictured below) can act as both — and it makes up a hefty amount of morning fuel. Thank the maker!
