Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Birthday party

[Marbles]

Stuffed the mice on the table?

Marge and I both have babies that are less than three months old. The kids are going to be dressed as mice. After all, we know who's really in charge.

Snort. Choke. I'm trying not to laugh so loud I wake the baby.

Get one of those extra-large birthday cards and sign it, "sorry we couldn't make it, had to leave before the demo crew arrived.  So long, and thanks for all the fish" and sign it, "the dolphins"

?

Bonus points for any food that you can shape to look like planets and/or continents.

42...the answer is 42!!

Have all your guest answer with that as they arrive!!

[LyraSilverose]

Get a block of ice, and chip at it for drinks.  Label it "The Fjords".

Robe shaped cookies?  Gingerbread men with two heads and killer sunglasses?

Popcorn balls that are white, and labeled as cricket balls?  I think a great game (if you had the space) would be a round or two of cricket.  Trust me, trying to figure out the rules after a couple Pan Galactic Gargleblasters will be game enough.

The sushi is the best idea I've ever heard, complete with sign!

You're my new hero.

And I wanna come too.

It's a pity you can't set up a bath tub and have someone sitting in it the entire time.

Perhaps pass out leaves and tell people that those will be needed to "buy" food and drinks.

I second the Perfectly Normal Beast sandwiches!

...didn't the original Earthlings leave offerings of berries and fruit to Ford and Arthur, as a request that they don't bother them?

Write the invitations as a really bad sonnet.

That's not a food food suggestion, is it?

Okay, set up the bar with pan-galactic gargle blasters.  Get glow cubes.  Post a warning near the bar that the more you drink the more susceptible you will become to the point-of-view gun.  Have a Nerf gun of some sort nearby. 

Decorate with bowls of petunias. Costumes required!

Okay, I'm off topic again.

You could ask everyone to write a really bad poem.  Or do a round robin poem.  Guest of Honor writes the first line then when people arrive each guest adds the next line.

After everyone has arrived (and had a few gargle blasters or drink of choice) the entire poen can be read.
