Friends, it's nearly spring! Thanks to the longer hours of daylight and the birds chirping outside my window, I've emerged from my sleepy, winter piebernation to celebrate a most under-appreciated holiday... Pi Day! On March 14th, the math teachers of the world join together with engineers and computer scientists to celebrate the number pi, 3.14. Is the celebration reserved only for them? Certainly not!
Pi Day is also celebrated by those who enjoy witty word play and sweet treats. Tack an "e" onto the end of pi and you end up with a warm, flaky-crusted, berry dessert that tastes best when served with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. Pi(e) Day is a chance to remember that 3.14 is the mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. And what better way to pay homage to that long-forgotten definition from 3rd grade than with a homemade pie of your own?
Order one of my pie kits by March 10th, and I'll have it shipped to your house with plenty of time for you to roll your crust and mix your filling by the big day. Pie kit varieties include peach, apple, cherry-berry and french silk.
