Pi Day

Current giveaway: Grandpa Jake's Campfire Cooker

A quote of note from good friends of ours:

If we do not pursue righteousness, how else will we be reminded every day of the need for God’s grace to obtain it for us?” – Erik Engstrom 3/14/2009 (Pi day)

I think the statement can stand alone on its own merit, but is it weird if I admit that part of the reason I love this quote is because of how it’s dated?    Did I ever mention that I was a math whiz as a little kid?

Pi day?  Is that a holiday?  Pi Day, with a capital D?  I think it is now.

Drat.  We just missed it, but just wait til next year!  Wait – we didn’t miss it.  We had apple pie for breakfast on Pie Day!  How fitting is that?  I think this is the start of a beautiful tradition.  My kids might even come to appreciate pi rather than hating it like they do now.

  1. I love Pi day also. I announced at dinner that Grandpa would got out and get a Pie if one of the kids could figure out why it was Pi day. And they did! But I did not clear it with Grandpa first and so, well, no Pie. :-(

    Of course what a glorious day it must have been early in the morning on 3/14/1592 at 6:53:58 seconds. The ultimate Pi day. Of course I have no idea if any one had figure Pi out to 11 decimal places by then.

    I really have to wonder about the accuracy of their timepieces back then too.

    What’s funny is that on the evening of 3/14/09, I realized it was Pi Day as I was taking two PIES out of the oven. I laughed about it, and my husband called me a nerd =)
