Here’s to my favorite irrational number! Go here for a recipe for a Pi-Tini with 3.14 ounces of vodka that get shaken 3.14 times with a bit of vermouth and poured over Pi ice.
According to wikipedia the first Pi Day celebration was held at the San Francisco Exploratorium in 1988, with staff and public marching around one of its circular spaces and then eating fruit pies.
Two more things to celebrate: the Pi minute today, March 14, at 1:59 p.m. And, as Pi is approximately 22/7, Pi Approximation Day on July 22.
Yikes! This is your brain on pi…
