Have you checked out the date today?! Today just so happens to be 3-14 or in the world of Geeks, Pi Day. As 3.14 is the short short short version for the symbol Pi. (Click here for more info on Pi.) Not to mention one of the Geeks of ALL Geeks, Albert Einstein, just so happens to have his birthday fall on 3-14. Seriously! It is quite a celebrated day. The College Kids at Princeton REALLY get into it each year. Just check this out.
As if Pi Day wasn’t enough..today is ULTIMATE Pi Day…go ahead start geeking out! Just what is Ultimate Pi Day? At exactly 9:26:53 am this morning it will be 3.141592653 the EXACT starting sequence of Pi…AND for a brief moment between 9:26:53 am and 9:26:54 am that the clock will match Pi down to an infinite number of digits…pretty cool huh? Enjoy it while it lasts, because it won’t happen again for another century!
So just why are we sharing all of this with you? Because when we think of Pi Day…we think of PIE!! So in honor of all the geeky nerds, nerdy geeks, and all in between…WE ARE GIVING AWAY PIE. WOOHOO!! Mmmmmmmmm PIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEE!
Because “It’s a Wonderful Day for Pie”…

Today is a great day for pi(e) due to the ratio between the width of a pie plate (diameter) and the amount of cloth needed to cover the crust around the circumference. It also relates half the pie plate width (radius), in an exponential fashion, to the amount of crust needed to cover the pie (surface area). Proportionate to this comment, you may decide to PIE ME ADDICTS!

When is it not a perfect day for pie? You can have pie for breakfast ( quiche), lunch or dinner (shepherd’s pie or chicken pot pie) as well as dessert. The pie is one of nature’s perfect food delivery systems.

In the spirit of St. Patty:
There once was a game called the quest,
Many folks thought it the best.
When they gave away pie,
I got excited and cried
And showed my husband my chest.
