let them eat cake on Pi day
"It's Pi day today," commented my daughter-in-love Jill last evening. A lemon cake sat on the kitchen counter, so of course I thought she meant "Pie Day" and oh dear, here I'd made a CAKE rather than a PIE on Pie Day.
Nope, Pi Day, March 14 or 3.14, the mathematical configuration for Pi. Did I say that right? Gosh, I hate math and stink at it. I only know 3.14 means Pi, somehow. Feel free to correct me. I should google it. The ignorance is killing me, so I will ... from http://www.piday.org/:
Pi, Greek letter is the symbol for the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. Pi Day is celebrated by math enthusiasts around the world on March 14th. Pi = 3.1415926535…
So, we made our cake into a lemon "Pi Cake," not to be confused with a lemon pie.
It's March in the midwest .... we must entertain ourselves.
Did you celebrate Pi Day?
