Michael: This puzzle was inspired by my love for pies and my enthusiastic endorsement for any and all excuses to consume them. It's tough, but if I had to pick a favorite it would be banana cream. ☺️

Random Thoughts & Interesting Things

Happy PI DAY! I am a fan of this day that combines celebrating mathematical nerdiness and eating pie. PI DAY is an annual celebration of π, the mathematical constant whose first three digits are 3.14. In 1988, a physicist named Larry Shaw, who worked at the San Francisco Exploratorium, organized what is considered to be the first PI DAY celebration. It involved marching around one of the museum's circular spaces, and then eating pie. In 2009, the House of Representatives passed a resolution designating March 14 as National PI DAY. Are you celebrating PI DAY by eating pie today? I am planning on making a coconut custard pie that makes its own crust, making it as easy as it is delicious. I like to follow up PI DAY with my own personally-designated holiday on March 15, "Eat Pie for Breakfast Day." Feel free to join me in celebrating that holiday tomorrow. Thank you, Michael, for this delightful timely puzzle.
