Shepherd's Pie |
Happy Pi Day! For all of you non-math geeks, Pi is a mathematical symbol ( based off the Greek letter π). Used to find the circumference (perimeter) and area of a circle. So why is today Pi day? Pi is a crazy long, never ending number but the first 3 digit of pi are 3.14. Today is March 14th…3/14. So what better way to celebrate Pi Day than with pie?? Hooray!
Note: In researching Pi day, I did find that those of you in Europe usually celebrate Pi Approximation day on July 22 (22/7) which is the fractional approximation of Pi.

Ok, since I’ve thoroughly geeked you out, I’m going to take it a step further with this:

Said Simple Simon to the pie man,
I thought πr2 (Pi are squared)

ReplyDeleteWonderful looking pie...can't wait for the recipe!:)
ReplyDeleteDid you know that π (Pi) was actually discovered because there was a fight over who had the largest segment of pie and they needed a mathmatical equation to settle the argument... :) Thank you for bringing pie day to my notice. I shall celebrate appropriately (does tarte tatin - I am burning one as I type - eeek!) and look forward to your recipes, especially the lemon cream pie!
ReplyDeleteI love it! How fun!
