Happy Pi Day, everyone! Today some Asian countries also celebrate White Valentine's Day, so I want to take this opportunity to share the recipe of the pie pops I made for Mr. this Valentine's Day. The filling is fig preserves with Nutella.
When Mr. and I went on a week-long road trip, ultimately reaching Crater Lake as our south-most point, we stopped at many cities in Washington and Oregon. We made a few trips to local grocery stores and whipped up some tasty bites in the hotel rooms, but we also checked out a number of eateries, including Beckie's in Union Creek near Crater Lake.
Now that summer is behind us, it's time to celebrate the bounty of fall stone fruit such as peaches and apples. With our trip to the Okanagan, we of course bought some gorgeous peaches. And what do you do when you have a lot to go through? You can freeze them, canned them, give them away...for us, we made pie!
Happy Pi Day! Nerdy, I know. March 14 (or 3/14 to illustrate the point) is the annual celebration of pi, since 3, 1 and 4 are the three most significant digits of π. March 14 is also White (Valentine's) Day. This is more common in Asia, particularly in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and China.
