athene: (pie)
Yesterday was Pi Day (March 14, 3.14...unless you're in England, in which case you celebrate Pi Day on 22/7). In honor of Pi Day, [livejournal.com profile] lordaerith and I held our Second Not-Quite-Annual-But-Getting-There Pi Day Pie Potluck.

OMG, the pie. So much pie! I made an apple pie. Aerith made sheepard's pie with lamb. There was a greek sheepherd's pie with bison. There was chicken pot pie and chicken in filio dough. There was pecan pie, pumpkin pie, chocolate peanut butter pie, round brownie bites with Π drawn on them. There was a pizza pie. Someone brought an American Pie DVD. There was another chicken pie thing made by [livejournal.com profile] saphirebear that looked and smelled yummy, but by the time she showed up, I was so over full that I couldn't eat another bite (but I have leftovers!). I'm forgetting some pies. Too much pie (is there ever too much pie???)

Everyone ate pie and drank and chatted and hung out and ate more pie and fell over. It was awesome. Will try to remember to do it again next year.

As always, the day following Pi Day is the Ides of March. Happy Ides. Don't get stabbed!
athene: (pie)
Today we had the First (Annual?) King Family (Minor) Pi Day Pie Potluck.

We had 3 different dinner pies (meat pie, cottage pie, and chicken pot pie) and two dessert pies (apple pie and chocolate meringue pie) as well as cookies with π on them in icing, pi-napple juice, pi-napple and pi-na colata jelly beans in a pi plate (cause [livejournal.com profile] crabes also has the pi plate).

I'm glad my apple pie went over so well. I was a little worried because I forgot to "dot the filling with small pieces of butter", but that didn't seem to matter because the pie was really really good. I used the "How to Cook Everything" pie crust recipe and the apple filling recipe from "More from Magnolia".

Everyone hung out and talked and had a good time (I think). Then after a bunch of people left, Bouncy, Blonde, [livejournal.com profile] iskanderia, [livejournal.com profile] noeticist, [livejournal.com profile] lordaerith, and I watched Top Secret, which most of them had never seen. Such a fun movie!

And, after midnight, we ritualistically stabbed [livejournal.com profile] noeticist with a foam weapon. So, on that note, it's bed time for me. HAPPY IDES OF MARCH EVERYONE!
