Who is Qi'ra?

Qi'ra and Han Solo grew up on the streets together. They are trying to survive. It's difficult to say for certain, at this point, but it appears they are both without strong parental role models in their lives. This might shed some insight into why Han Solo struggled with being a good dad to Ben Solo/Kylo Ren.
It seems Qi'ra may end up being Han Solo's first love. She is a criminal and is involved with gangsters. We don't know much more than that.
Oh yeah, she is also a very strong woman. I bet she's also feisty and thus a couple of the characteristics that attracted Han to Leia.
We do know she is never mentioned in the original trilogy of Star Wars, so will she be killed or do they simply part ways?
Honestly, if we connect with her character and they kill her off...I'm not sure I can take it. I sat in my seat sobbing at the end of Rogue One. I was depressed for a couple of days over it. I thought Disney liked Happily Ever After endings!!! 😆

Even though I'm busy, I love cooking, but I'm looking for easier ways for you.
Do you like Key Lime Pie? My bestest friend loves it and gave this completed recipe (with garnish) two thumbs up...a new favorite. The combo of key lime and raspberry went together beautifully. The sweetened whipped cream helped balance the tartness perfectly.
However, my kids weren't as crazy about it. They didn't like the tartness aspect of the key limes, but they thought it was okay.
As for me, I thought it was delicious!
To make this easier:
Use pre-made graham cracker mini tart (3 inch) shells. I used Keebler brand.
You can buy lime juice instead of freshly squeezing key limes. I squeezed fresh key lime juice, but it did take some time!
But you will still need some fresh key limes for zest in the recipe and garnish.
Qi'ra Tart Recipe:
First, you will need some graham cracker mini-tart (3 inch) shells between 9-12.Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Next I beat 3 egg yolks, added 1/2 cup fresh squeezed Key Lime juice, 1 T key lime zest, and 1 can of sweetened condensed milk (I made my own, but you can buy it). Mix well.
Pour into shells and bake for 10-15 minutes, until set. Let cool and then refrigerate.
When ready to serve, garnish with Raspberry jam (I made seedless raspberry jam, but you can buy it), sweetened whipped cream, fresh key lime slices and raspberries.
Print out the theme food label, put on platter with it, and serve!
