Homegrown Recap: 3.14 - Happy Pi Day!

Quirky Moments

Interact w/Homegrown: What is your family’s go-to on game night?
- Brent was introduced to a new game (well a new version of an old game) called Uno Flip. He highly recommends it!

How are you holding up after the Daylight Saving switch? Brent is actually doing pretty good, while Nikki is the one suffering today. Between her son pushing through FOUR baby teeth and not quite adjusting to the time change (as 9 month old babies tend to not do), it was a rough weekend in the Darling household.

Today is National Pi Day…as in 3.14, because it’s March 14th. But a recent poll found a third of Americans don’t know what “pi” is. Some just have a vague notion it has something to do with math. 19% said they had no idea what pi is . . . 3% thought it was the hypotenuse of a triangle . . . 2% said angles in a parallelogram . . . 1% said the volume of water . . . and 7% thought it was the “mass of a pie,” spelled P-I-E. (???)
Two-thirds knew the correct answer: It’s the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. It’s used it all areas of math and physics to calculate stuff.

As always, a bunch of places have deals on PIZZA and ACTUAL pies today.
