pie

me: Do hamantaschen count as pies?
him: No, pies are round.
...(later in same conversation)...
him: I once made a persimmon pie. I made it in Revere.
me: I thought you were going to say you made it in reverse. From the top down.
him: I regurgitated it. I didn't know I had it in me.
(I succumb to a fit of giggles)
me: That was both delightful and disgusting.

You can use hamantaschen to celebrate Pi-Thagoras Day, but not Pi Day. :)

And when is that?

It's pretty rare, and only getting more so.
I think the next two are April 5, 2027 and January 27, 2028.

(My theory is that it's a day where a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Choose a = 27, b = 36, and c = 45. Using c as the year and b as the month, we then have the 27th day of the 36th month of 2025 = Jan. 2028. Using a as the month, we have the 36th day of the 27th month of 2025 = Mar. 2027 + 36 days = April 5, 2027.)

Geek.

I wonder, if I put a note in my gcal to remind myself to make hamantaschen for Pythagoras Day, whether I'll get it...
