Not the kind where you get school or work off, but a fun one I’d have never considered celebrating…
This March 14 is National Pi Day. I’m told the opening event starts at 1:59am
There are a number of web sites devoted to Pi and its great importance in our lives. Many people memorize Pi up to several hundred decimal places. Computers have calculated it out to a trillion decimal places. You can see the first million digits here.
Apparently schools across the country plan activities to observe Pi Day. I’m thinking maybe I should make a cheesecake. For Valentine’s Day, I made a cheesecake, then made a heart with strawberries. I think this Saturday I’ll make a Pi symbol with some kind of fruit on my cheesecake. Any reason to make cheesecake is a good one.
Have a Happy Pi Day this Saturday. Why not throw a party?
