Okay, so you’re not into all that math stuff. It doesn’t matter. It’s still a good excuse to have a slice of pie to celebrate. What’s your favorite kind of pie?
To this day my favorite is a banana pie that was prepared the way my grandfather liked it. It’s a very simple recipe. Bake a pie shell. Slice in bananas until it’s nearly heaping. Top with whipped cream or a similar whipped topping and dig in. Fast and simple and doesn’t last long in our family.
