March 14th is Pi Day, an annual celebration of the mathematical constant pi, which represents the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter and is approximately 3.14.
While Pi Day was originally created to celebrate the beauty and usefulness of mathematics, it has also become a day to indulge in one of the most beloved desserts of all time: pie.
Pie is a dish that has been enjoyed for centuries and has evolved to include a variety of sweet and savory fillings, crusts, and toppings.
For those looking to celebrate Pi Day with a slice of pie, there are many options to choose from.
One option is to make a homemade pie using a favorite recipe or by experimenting with new flavors and ingredients.
Sweet pies like blueberry, cherry, or pumpkin are always popular choices, while savory pies like quiche or shepherd's pie are great for lunch or dinner.
For those who prefer to leave the baking to the professionals, 7-Eleven has a Pi Day deal that's hard to resist.
Members of the chain's 7Rewards program can purchase a pizza for only $3.14. The deal includes all of the chain's signature pizza flavors, including their breakfast pizza with sausage.
The deal is limited to two pizzas per customer, but for those who can't wait until Pi Day, the 7Now Delivery app allows customers to access the deal a day earlier.
7-Eleven has a history of celebrating holidays with pizza deals. During the Super Bowl, the chain gave out free pizzas to anyone who made an order on the 7Now Delivery app.
For those who prefer something sweeter after enjoying a 7-Eleven pizza, there are many tips and tricks to keep in mind when baking a traditional fruit pie at home.
Whether you prefer sweet or savory, homemade or store-bought, there's no wrong way to celebrate Pi Day. So mark March 14th on your calendar and celebrate Pi Day with a slice of pie.
