Yes JD, all the kids were telling him the pies were great, he was the popular boy at school. This morning a few kids came up to me and said they loved my pies, bless them.

Thanks cookie.

Wow, Hally!  Your lovely DS was handed a huge lemon . . and look at the lemonade he came up with!!!  I'm sure this "lesson in life" will stick with him forever.  In my book, you're up for Parents of the Year!! :) :) :)

I totally love that my birthday is Pi day!!  ;D

I think my children should be into this and make me pies for my birthday every year!  They have no excuses really. ;)

Some schools here have really taken Pi day to a much higher level.  There are children who memorize as many of the (unending) numbers as they can and recite them just for the fun of it.
One young man recited more than 4000 numbers!   See (part of it) here.

I forgot to take photos of the pies I made.  Sausage pie for the savory and apple raisin pie for the sweet.  Had a nice veggie salad to go with...
