pi day

After Aiden's theater practice, we visited the library for their Super Pi celebration!  We, of course, were sporting our pi tshirts and the librarian dubbed us the Pi Family and ran to get her friend and her camera - ha!  Her friend, another librarian, called herself a matheknitcian and had a sweater with the prime factorization of the numbers in pi - it was an amazing feat of knit patterning up to 79!  She also had pi earrings and even socks!  My pi and knitting nerdom was at a peak and she tops the pi enthusiasm chart ;)

They had whipped up a pi scavenger hunt with lotsa fun questions. With a completed pi chart of eight questions you won a piece of round candy and a pi bracelet with this years super pi date written on it!  Both Super Pi Aiden and Pi-rate Keaton earned their prizes.

Then we cruised up the road to Pie Gourmet to pick up some Shepherd's Pie (and another chicken pot pie for later) and a chocolate cream pie (which some might claim is pie for people who really don't like pie that much). The pie guys were working furiously to take orders and one woman naively asked why they were so popular today - The pie guy laughed and said, "It's only because it's Pi Day!"
