Happy Pi Day

[Skywatcher]

3/14 is according to one particular son of mine a day when geeks
around the world celebrate the number.....


To help him celebrate his amazing mummy has made a chicken and leek pi
pie

[Isafari]

Yum, my all time favourite pie

[Britchick]

nice! that's a big pi!

[Skywatcher]

There is a dance as well .... Ask me how

[Britchick]

There is a dance as well .... Ask me how

oh lordie................how? :unsure:

[Skywatcher]

You imagine there is a giant calculator on the floor infront of you. Then you let your feet move to the 3 then the . Then the 1 etc

I'm betting not a lot of girls do this

[ukwdwnut]

pie looks scrummy, never tasted leek tho

[Britchick]

I'm betting not a lot of girls do this

I'm guessing not a lot of boys do it either :insane: :tongue:

[Tink]

I immediately thought of Thomas (and his username!) today! :yes: I wondered if he would do anything special. His Mom is the BEST!!!

I want a video of the dance Da. C'mon now! :beg:

[Beccaberry]

Best. Mum. Ever.

[Tink]

OH! Look at the little toes!!! :lol: Too cute. That sort of makes the whole shot perfect.

That, and the fact that this is Mother's Day there. How perfect is that for a kid? Mom making him a special pie on his Pi day?

Leeks are like a very, very mild onion Mick. :yes: Surprised you've never tried it!

[Dawn]

Mick doesn't do any vegetable. :lol:

Is there really a Pi day? :unsure:

[Skywatcher]

Yep - I beive it is celebrated in physics institutes and mathematical laboritories the worrld over by menin glasses who smell of hamsters :lol:

[kazzaqld]

Of course it should really be held on the 22nd July (22/7) but hey any time is a good time for pie! :thumbsup: :D

[Skywatcher]

That apparently is a topic of discussion amongst some people as well - any excuse for a :geekon: party

[uscwest]

I'll bet that Pi Pie was delicious. Any chance of getting the recipe?

[Skywatcher]

:lol: Lisa will never give recipies just ' a bit of this and a bit of that' :D

[Dawn]

I have recipes like that. "chuck some carrots in, throw in some random herb..." :lol:

[Britchick]

oh well memory not good as usual :lol:

[Tink]

Well, I guess I've never really considered leeks a vegetable! :lol: Sure, they are but I think of them more as a flavoring, again like an onion or garlic.

But onions can be a nice vegetable dish too.

So you never eat any vegetable, Mick? :unsure: What do you eat then?

[mumof2]

roasted whole onion Tink, oh and onion cakes.

yorkshire pudding batter but a little runnier, mix in chopped onions and bake in cake cases. lovely. i haven't made them in years but i just remembered them!

[ukwdwnut]

i do eat them now and then, but i have to be in the mood for them...obviously potatoes, greens[light & dark]very rare, brussels, broccoli, of course onions, mainly raw or fried cant think of any others mainly coz i dont eat any others :lol:

[Tink]

Well then you'd like leeks. :yes: They are much, much milder than onioins, so if you eat onions it's a shoe in! :D

You don't like tomatoes or corn or squash or fava beans or asparagus or peppers or anything else? :unsure:

[ukwdwnut]

ok next time den or lauren cooks a dish with leeks in i'll try it :)

oh yeah forgot tomatoes, lettuce, spring onions in the summer for a salad with loads of salad cream mmmmmmmmm

cant think of anything else

[Tink]

Now keep that nasty cream off and you've got a proper salad! :lol: I don't use dressing of any sort on my salad, as I like the taste of the vegetables, eh?

[Skywatcher]

Thats the thing we Brits don't get in the US we are used to our veg being lightly steamed and thats about all , and we rarely use salad dressing

[ukwdwnut]

i couldnt eat a salad without half a bottle of salad cream on it then mop it up with some bread mmmmmm yummy :)

[Tink]

Ah, see? That's the way. :yes: Other than sprouts of course. :D Those need long term simmering in pots of butter. :D :D

I like roasted vegetables very well, too.
