Pi Are Square

But not at Linderhof --

they're ROUND!

Today is National Pie Day

because it is 3/14

which is pi!

Several experts were all posed the following question:    What is Pi?

The engineer said:   " It is approximately 3 and 1/7"

The physicist said:   "It is 3.14159"

The mathematician thought a bit and replied, "it is equal to pi."

A nutritionist:   "Pie is a healthy and delicious dessert."

And so it was today at Linderhof

But not just dessert -- dinner too!

We, at Linderhof, take Pi day seriously!

  Individual chicken pot pies

  with homemade pastry crust

  
  

  

  
  

  Full of chunks of chicken and vegetables like snow peas, peas, carrots and baby corn

  All in a wonderful chicken broth

  
  

  And then there is dessert pie:

  
  

  

  
  

  An old fashioned lemon ice box pie

  Because I had all the ingredients in the larder --

  the graham crackers, the Eagle milk and lemons

  
  

  

  
  

  It's an easy pie but a good pie

  
  

  

  
  

  And there will be pie for tomorrow --

  which is not "pie" day!

  
  

  The roundest knight at King Arthur's was Sir Cumference . . . He ate too much Pi!
