Today is an important day in the mathematical calendar.

It's March 14!

Wait, I'll try again:

It's 3-14!

It's π (pi) day!



If we want circles to remain properly round for the rest of the year, plus protest anti-scientific wankery*...we must eat more pie!

The Bible, according to a rather odd interpretation of I Kings 7:23, declares π exactly equal to three. This was never actually declared law in any state, despite efforts to this effect, and urban legend that followed after.

So bacon mushroom pie? Or sweet potato pie? I suppose both would be even better. I'll have to see what the options are at the local bakery. :)

Well, if [livejournal.com profile] hauk were around, obviously I would have to make a bacon-mushroom pie. I'm partial to sweet potato myself (and never turned down bacon-mushroom), but I figure what'll actually happen is that someone will bring a fruity pie to Hrafnar tonight, fulfilling my obligation.

THE PIE MUST FLOW!

If you make it- I will come.

And you can take that last statement anyway you want! ;)

Dude, I'll cook for you, but I don't think anyone else wants the Special Sauce with that.

I'm off to lunch- I think I'll get me some pie!

Apple Pie with Ice Cream- glorious!

I happen to make a supremely ruling apple pie, you know.

Are you acquainted with the idea of putting cheddar cheese on apple pie--nay, even within its crust?

Methinks I'm going to have to visit.

And then, when people (who- believe it or not- have been telling me this for the past 6 months) tell me I've gained weight- they'll be right!

Well, that's so!

Now, ordinarily I'd say that fall is the best time for bacon-mushroom pie, but I know that in Haukland, there is never a bad time for bacon anything.

Anyhow, you turn up in the Northlands, given sufficient warning, I will make you a pie. Right now, for example, it would probably be a bacon-lamb-Guinness pie...

You combine lamb and Guinness- I may just quit my job and move in!

*laugh* Apparently I would gain at least two roommates with the idea of a bacon-lamb-Guinness pie, but as you already know [livejournal.com profile] water_of_fire I do not foresee this as a problem...

The goo was appropriately yellow, right?

'cos Key Lime pie filling oughtn't ever be green...

Well, you know, Indiana has always been kinda eerie that way...
