So the day after I moved in, I naturally invited a bunch of people over for my second annual National Pie Day celebration, like you do.
There were knitting quizzes and pie trivia!
There were door prizes!
There was much tea consumed!
There were rows knitted!
And there was a pie per person! (and some creme brulee that snuck in, but who can complain?)
(Counterclockwise from bottom right: quiche (egg pie), shepherd’s pie, vegetarian shepherd’s pie, banana’s foster pie, cherry cream pie, spinach feta and phyllo pie, lemon meringue, and s’more pie.)
In other news, it’s -10° F outside, but the house is warm and there were a pair of beautiful cardinals chirping outside my living room window as I ate my breakfast this morning.
And I have a bunch of leftover savory pies for my lunch. Not a bad start to a cold day!!

There has been much debate over Pie day and PI day. I say any excuse for pie is okay with me
