National Pie Day (January 23)

As Gingersnap has just pointed out, today, January 23, is National Pie Day.

It’s true! You can read all about it on the website of the National Pie Council at www. piecouncil.org/national.htm . The Council’s list of “Random Acts of Pieness,” however, seems woefully incomplete…

    Wow, that’s cool. We have a French Silk Pie in the freezer.

    And apparently there is free pie at Baker’s Square, but only a slice, not a tin. Oh well. Too bad we’re not near any.

    Pie will indeed lead to peace on Earth, but first though a sly takeover followed by maybe some snachets of fighting. But then peace, oh yes. Mostly Harmless peace.

    Happy Pie day everyone!
    In math last year we celebrated Pie Day by having a memorization contest. Whoever memorized the most digits of pi got to pick a whole pie and my math teacher bought it.

    2- Indeed, pie will make a Mostly Harmless peace. Or should I say “piece”? :mrgreen:

    Apparently, these people don’t know that. I mean, “share pie with your family”? “Have charity pie eating contests”? Don’t these people know anything? *pies these people*

    They seem to have completely missed the usefulness of the pie. Namely it’s squishiness and ability to make large messes with minimal effort…

    Am looking forward to pi day. *memorizes pi*

    (30) NAPOI, no rule one way or the other. But we have the advantage of knowing (usually) when one of our posts will be the next comment. Doesn’t always work, though.

    However, I thought March 14th was Pie d- ohh. It’s PI day, not PIE day. I’m sorry. I had an attack of MCaH (Mass Confusion and Hysteria) there. Get it? March = 3rd mo. 14th… 3.1415926… etc.

    Well, on the topic of pizza, I believe that sausage pwns (in the nicest sense) all. Sorry.

    45 – Garlic pizza? You mean I’m not the only person on Earth who likes garlic pizza? In my opinion, any food can be greatly improved by either (depending on which food) adding more chocolate or adding more garlic.

    47 – That’s so me! You are so right. No one believes that white pizza (garlic & cheese) is good. No one believes that if you sprinkle a little parmesan cheese & garlic on a buttered, toasted bagel it’s good!! Garlic + Chocolate (just not in the same mouthful) = Life.
