Today, is National Pi Day (3.141592653 for those math lovers out there), and what better way to celebrate than to enjoy some delicious pie!

I love all flavors of pie: banana cream, lemon meringue, pecan, chocolate,  pumpkin, cherry…and the list goes on and on!  Something about enjoying a slice of pie and a warm drink is so comforting, especially during this cold Chicago winter.
