Shameless Plea for Pie Contest Votes + Promise of Pie for Happy Hour

Brownie

My raspberry rhubarb pie is a finalist in the Serious Eats Pi Day contest. I'm tied for 2nd, but getting smoked by a rectangle with Pi to 100 decimal places. Impressive, but my inner math geek can't help but protest that pi can't be utilized with rectangles!

I would love to bask in the sheer nerdy glory of winning a pi themed pie contest and I've been trying my hardest to drum up the votes, but taking first place has been elusive thus far. If my pie takes the crown I will bring midtown lunchers pie of their choosing at the next happy hour (provided the bar is cool with it). Otherwise I'll bring pie to SMPIII or another gathering. Think of it as not so much a bribe, but a campaign promise. Ok, maybe it is a bribe but I throwdown a mean crust! Vote here: http://bit.ly/9DRTd3. Thanks!

    i can't believe all you needed to do was write out 100 digits of pi. it doesn't even look photogenic.

    if it were me, i would try to burn the numbers into the pie with a hacked laser pointer. maybe next year I'd fit 600 digits of pi and win the crowd over.
