Happy PI Day!! (A day late)

Say what?

Yesterday was pi day.

March 14, 2015 

Date  3-14-15
Pi       3.1415

And if you were really into observing Pi day, you could have taken a moment to observe the unique second in time when the date and time exactly matched Pi. 

Pi                   3.141592653 
Date/Time      3/14/15  9:26:53

My kids and husband talked about this a few days before the big event. We failed to observe the exact moment of Pi to the billionth place value, but hey, we remembered the day. 

And in honor of Pi day, of course, we ate what else other than


pie

It had a Pi symbol on it!
Of course. 


For those not loving Apple pie there were other selections including chocolate and pecan. 



Pie making took second place to syrup cooking. We finished over seven gallons. That was a bit short of our goal of ten to fifteen gallons. Mother Nature was having some sort of identity crisis this past few weeks. She played havoc with our sap collecting. Oh well. There's always next year.
