3.1415... It's Pi Day!

0 Comments

Today, March 14, is Pi Day.


...and by Pi, I mean Pi (as in the math kind of Pi).


However, if you want to eat pie on Pi day, that's okay with me!

In fact, I think you should start the day with a pancake pie.

Have pot pie for lunch.

Order a pizza pie for dinner.

Then go straight for the chocolate cream pie.

But that's just me.



So, what is Pi?


 
This year, Pi Day is extra, extremely special. Because Pi Day falls on 3/14/15, it matches up with the first four numbers that follow the decimal point - 3.1415 - marking a once-in-a-lifetime coincidence.
Awesome!
 
Here are a few fun Pi Day resources:

Seriously, celebrating Pi Day is as easy as 3.141592653.

Have fun!
