Right now, I&#8217;m working with my daughter on how to calculate the area and circumference of a circle. Do you remember how to do that? It&#8217;s all about Pi, also written as \u03c0 .<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u03c0 (3.14) x diameter = circumference<br \/>\n\u03c0 (3.14) x radius\u00b2 = area<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It&#8217;s all coming back you now, right? This little mathematical symbol saves us from writing the infinite decimal equivalent of the fraction 22\/7. In fact, it&#8217;s such an appreciated role that there&#8217;s even a national day to celebrate it. March 14th is National Pi Day &#8211; that&#8217;s today! Will you be doing extra equations and measuring circles of all sizes? We celebrated it with a:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-41249\" alt=\"Marie Callender's Frozen Chicken Pot Pie\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/marie_pie01.jpg\" width=\"760\" height=\"370\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/marie_pie01.jpg 760w, https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/marie_pie01-292x142.jpg 292w, https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/marie_pie01-650x316.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/marie_pie01-585x285.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Get it? Get it? It&#8217;s a piE! Okay, totally corny but that&#8217;s what attracted me to this project. I&#8217;d take pie over a math problem any day (sorry, it&#8217;s true) and Marie Callender&#8217;s Pies seemed just right for the occasion. (By the way, the pot pie pictured above was cooked in the microwave. Still looks good, right?)<\/p>\n<p>Though there&#8217;s a mouthwatering array of dessert pies available, I just had to go with the classic Chicken Pot Pie. Ah, I loved eating Chicken Pot Pies from Marie Callender&#8217;s when I was young. But, as my husband is not fond of them, I haven&#8217;t had them in years. What a treat to get a Chicken Pot Pie again and even introduce it to my daughter. She enjoyed hers and described it as &#8220;chicken soup in a pie&#8221;. Hmm, pretty well summarized. It wasn&#8217;t quite enough to fill her up but she&#8217;s been an eating beast lately &#8211; I think a growth spurt is coming on.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-41250\" alt=\"Marie Callender's Frozen Chicken Pot Pie Taste\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/marie_pie02.jpg\" width=\"760\" height=\"166\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/marie_pie02.jpg 760w, https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/marie_pie02-292x64.jpg 292w, https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/marie_pie02-650x142.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.cookiesandclogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/marie_pie02-585x128.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Have you tried any of their pot pies or dessert pies from the frozen section yet?
