Excellent ideas! (Except the crotch thing - lol)
I can't wait to do this thing! Thanks so much guys!
Patsy: When you were two years old, we tied you to the central reservation of a motorway.
Edina: But you were like a homing pidgeon, sweetie....back within a week!

Most of my food ideas have been covered --
'cause you're all so smart!
But I wouldn't call War Stories a party episode unless you're celebrating October 31 and serving un-set cherry Jell-O, among the other dainties.
Why not (along with the pilot, which is a pure necessity) Our Mrs. Reynolds? It's full of tasty lines, character delineation, and even some of the mentioned food.

I agree with FloralBunny, Our Mrs. Reynolds is always a good party epi.
You could have some mulled wine (a wassail recipe would work nicely). But beware of women bearing hats made from trees.
The bao recipe is a good one. We made it for one shindig and it was a big hit.
I've also made "ice planets" using cream cheese & crushed pineapple mixed up and rolled in coconut.
I once made a very tall cake that resembled Simon's birthday cake from Out of Gas. Even put emergency candles in the top. But I'll warn you that cuttint it is problematic. I would recommend running skewers from top to bottom before you cut into it or it will collapse. ** After the cake collapse, it occurred to me that they never show the cake being cut on the show. Hmmmmm **
Hot cheese dip was suggested. I made beer cheese dip and served it in a little crock to keep it hot.
The men in Shindig were feeding Kaylee chocolates in little gold foil wrappers. Herhsey makes Nuggets in gold wrappers. There may be other gold-wrapped chocolate but those were the ones I found.
The last show-themed food I've made was a basket of fresh baked rolls from my favorite scene where they're all sitting around the table and River steals Jayne's bread.
That's all I got. Good luck on your party!

Maybe you could serve some "Ng Ka Py" (medicinal herb wine) which Mal orders in 'The Train Job'.
(In the Firefly Chinese translations I've seen it's "Ng Ka Pei" but I guess that's wrong. So if you want to look for some use the first spelling. Searches confirm this.)
Have a great shindig!!!
Politics is the showbiz of industry.

Sliced tomatoes rolls and and beef tips ( call them protein cubes) thats what they had in the Pilot show. Show the 2 hour Pilot it's been the best way I have found to hook people on the show the movie just leaves out to much for the non-Browncoats. Go to the dollar store and get a few Dinosaurs ( they will get the Dinosaurs after the Pilot) for the table and hang some stars above the table and if you have it a model of Serenity.

I would recommend the Big Damn Chef's cookbook that came out a while back--many Firefly inspired recipes including a few from our Big Damn Heroes.
