Outside of America, dates are written with the day first, and then the month, so March 14th is 14.3, not 3.14. Non-American nerds were sad to miss out on Pi(e) Day, so they designated 22/7 as Pi(e) Day, because 22 / 7 = 3.142857, which is close enough to Pi.
Anyhoo, I made a chicken and mushroom pie for dinner! Yay!
There was a bit of pastry left over, and I had some frozen berries, so I chucked those in to a pie plate, added some double cream, and put the pastry lid on. Now, I knew that I should cook the frozen berries first. I knew they were full of frozen water that would make my "pie" watery. But I couldn't be bothered. So I made some berry soup, with a soggy pastry topping! I'm so talented.
Your pie crust looks DELISH!!!
ReplyDeleteHuh! I never knew about the "other" pi day. Cool!
ReplyDeleteIf you do a different division, you get a number that approximates pi, accurate to 6 decimal places: 355/113 = 3.141592...
Cool, huh?
And that first pie looks good. Holy smokes. I'm sure the second pie tasted good, too.
