Today is March 14, which means today is “Pi Day.” Pi is the mathematical term for the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. Pi always equals 3.14159265359. While, Andrew, our sixth grader, has been discussing the significance of pi, I’d rather discuss baking a pie. In honor of ‘Pi Day,” below are some verses worth considering. I will savor these truths over coffee and a slice of pie!
