Being the geek that I am, I made a pie today (for the first time ever).  You see, today is March 14th  or 3.14.  Which if you know anything about math, are the first three digits of the math-magical constant relating a circles diameter to it’s circumference (Circumference=3.14 diameters) symbolized by the lower case Greek letter pi : π.

Ok, so I didn’t make the pie especially for today, it was more of a confluence of several factors.

  1. I wanted pie.
  2. I had blueberries, pears and apples (yes I put all three into a pie)
  3. Today was pi day.

I used a ready made crust, and as you can see in the picture, it was not the best made pie in the world.  I think I actually used a cake pan instead of a pie plate, but it’s all I had.  Anyways, it tasted pretty good and filled that special spot in my stomach that only pie can fill.
