HAPPY PI DAY!



I'm fairly sure that Pi Day is my husband's favorite holiday. Not because he's an engineer, but because he gets a pie on Pi Day. Last summer I froze about two pints of blueberries for making him a blueberry pie, just for today. Most blueberry pie recipies call for a double crust, so I made a double-crust apple pie over the weekend to practice. It turned out very nicely, and so did the blueberry pie, which I had to make last night because tonight I have class.

To be logical about the pie on Pi Day, it seems that Pi Approximation Day (22/7, July 22nd) would be better for the pie, because a lot of fruit is in season and is cheap. Also it is more excuses to have pie. (it's really a pity that I don't like fruit pies.)

That's a good looking pie. And good for you, for knowing how to make a food you don't like. I usually don't bother to learn if I'm not going to eat it. XD

I enjoy baking - I find it very relaxing and fun. Making something I don't like means I don't add to the size of my posterior because of my hobby. (Going out to dinner accomplishes that nicely, sigh.)
