PI Day! 3.14 - 2013

Happy PI Day!  Ha!  Whatever that is..

Loving the sitcom, Big Bang Theory like I do, it is only appropriate that I celebrate PI Day here!  Happy Pi Day!

My favorite way to celebrate Pi Day would of course be to make and eat some pie!

Here are a couple of my favorite ways to make and eat pie AT HOME MY WAY:




 
 

Pumpkin Pie with homemade Whipped Cream
 
 
Another of my favorite pies is this little Oatmeal Pie recipe found:
 
 
 
It's like pecan pie but without pecans (lots more frugal and just as delicious!)
 
 
 
What about savory pies?  I would consider these hand pies - Empanadas - a terrific way to celebrate Pi Day!

And... last, but not least, probably the most popular pie in our Country - Pizza Pie!
 
 
 
 
 
Homemade Pizza
 
 
 
 
Sounds like tonight will be a good reason to watch my favorite physicists on The Big Bang Theory and eat some Pie! 
 
Happy Pi Day!
 
 
 
Enjoy!

    Every year I say I'm going to make a pie for Pi day and always forget-lol. You've reminded me I need to post my lemon meringue pie recipe! I bet it's the same as yours-just an old classic pie that can't be beat.

Best Dill Pickles EVER! (Just like Claussen) (Easy - no canning!)

Do you want to make the best, easiest homemade dill pickles in the world?   I found a recipe for dill pickles that tastes JUST LIKE Claussen refrigerator pickles.  Those are the best anyway, right?  That crunch, the dill and the garlic... and oh yea , the crunch!  This recipe is super easy because you  don't have to process these pickles which means there is no canning needed.   You just fill a gallon jar (we use an old pickle jar) with fresh cucumbers and dill heads, and then pour over the cooled liquids/seasonings.   Let it sit on the counter for three days, and then refrigerate.  After that, the pickle eating begins. They are supposed to keep for one year like that in the fridge, without canning.  (We let them sit for the 3 days, then refrigerated them overnight before opening the jar for the much anticipated first taste. Did they taste like Claussen?  YOU BET YOUR PRETTY PICKLE THEY DID!  We were all SO ex...

Buttermilk Biscuits - Just like Cracker Barrel!

RECIPES AT THE TOP - CHIT CHAT AT THE BOTTOM! Here's how we make Buttermilk Biscuits AT HOME MY WAY: Buttermilk Biscuits (just like Cracker Barrel) (Makes about 8 biscuits.) PRINTABLE RECIPE HERE Ingredients: 2 cups SELF RISING flour  (self rising flour gives the perfect taste to homemade biscuits) 1/3 cup shortening  (cold real butter also works here) 1 1/4 cup buttermilk*  *NOTE:  (If using regular milk combined with lemon juice vinegar referenced below, you only need 1 cup of milk because thinner regular milk uses less by volume than the thick real buttermilk.) Directions: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. (Make sure your flour is "fluffed" not straight from the bag;  Dump it in a larger container and stir using up and down motion to fluff it up a little bit-THEN measure out 2 cups).  Measure 2 cups SELF RISING flour into a mixing bowl.  Add shortening and cut it until small and crumbly. A fork works fine for this purpose ...
