Do you know why March 14th is referred to as Pi day? The numerical value for Pi is 3.14 (in its long form, there are many more decimal places). For math and science people, this is a high holiday in the nerd community.

For reference, you can visit "Top 25 Most Interesting Facts about Pi". You might be interested to know that Pi is the most studied number in math and has been in use for over 250 years.
Although I am a self proclaimed science nerd, I am a homemaker as well and this blog is all about things around the house. So while we are celebrating Pi day, I thought I'd share three tips I've learned for making the perfect PIE!
1. For a perfectly toasted crust that is evenly cooked, brush with milk and sprinkle with granulated sugar
2. Add a few small pats of butter over the inside filling before putting on the top crust to make the inside perfectly decadent.
3. Save your crust from burning using a pie crust shield! They work great and I have an affiliate link for you below:
