Pi Day

Now you'll know how much of a nerd I am (or how much of a nerd my friends are.) Instead of making a blog for St Patty's Day and making recipes out of beer, I'm blogging for Pi day instead. 3.14! Eventually I'll play with beer, because I'm really trying to get the taste for it. Anyways. I did not post last week because the pie I made did not turn out, but this one did! :-D I include frozen peaches not only because they aren't in season, but because you can have the ingredients waiting for you for a rainy day.

PEACH PIE

• 1 cup white sugar (I substituted 2/3 cup Splenda)
  
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3 cups frozen sliced peaches (defrosted)
  
• 9 inch single crust pie

Cream together the sugar and butter or margarine. Add the egg, flour, and vanilla; mix together completely. Brush this mixture over the crust line with peaches. Spread the rest of the mixture over the top of the peaches.
Bake at 300 degrees F for 1 hour.

MOVIE SUGGESTIONS: Waitress &/or Pi

WHY: These are the obvious choices for Pi day!! Waitress makes you want to make or eat a pie right then and there. This movie is all about the Pies. It is a sweet movie, though, and isn't just a Chick-Flick. Plus, it has my favorite sexy man, Nathan Fillion. I just watched Castle and I'm already loving it. :-)

Pi is disturbing and creepy, but in a memorable and good way that makes you think. It'll truly make you appreciate the number Pi.
