It's March 14, better known as 3.14, or Pi Day. I wish it was pie day, but we'll take what we can get.
My gal geeksugar has rounded up a load of Pi Day paraphernalia, however I've found a few treats to inspire you in the kitchen. So for those of you geeky enough to get it, I present to you the Pi Pie. Created by Flickr member megpi, this awesome pie has the pi symbol cut into the middle and the numbers going around the outside. It's so clever, I'm bummed I didn't come up with myself!
The only thing that would make this pie better is if it was served in this Pi Dish ($24.95). This pi dish is trimmed with the first few dozen digits of pi, and would make any geeky baker's day.
One more fun Pi Day item, check it out when you read more.
While searching for fun Pi Day things, I also came across this Pi Cookie Cutter ($12.95). Although it's for cookies, and not pies, I still think that it's pretty fun. You could even use it on pastry crust to create embellishments for your pie, or cut out two and make a pocket pie! Either way, I'm sure you'll get more than 3.14159 uses out of it!

My mother bought me the pi(e) dish when I graduated college because I was a math minor who enjoys baking. I almost forgot today was Pi Day!
1So cute!
2In High School we celebrated Pi day and my Math Teacher would have an after school Pie Potluck and whoever brought more pies got more extra credit, it was awesome!
3I have that pi plate!
4oh! pi day! I always forget about it, thanks for the reminder!
I love that pie plate...i think i might need it. I also love that cookie cutter! ah! i need it all!
5Pi day, who knew. I'm a bit of a geek but I don't think I'd celebrate this!
6We had Pi Day at the school I teach in today...the kids LOVE it and get so into it. We have a raffle that the kids can buy tickets for a chance to throw a pie in one of their teacher's faces. It's pretty funny and the whole school gets involved.
