Pi Day 2010

Today was Pi Day. 
I baked some tiny blueberry pies. It was my first time baking pies, so they didn't turn out so pretty (especially the edges...) but they were very delicious. =]

One of the better pies, before baking. Clearly I am horrible at making borders.

The pies after baking. All the pies have double borders because I didn't press the top cover and the sides together firmly enough. =[

Happy Pi Day everyone!

Om nom nom. They turned out pretty good for my first try.

Dream Big.


Dream Big. 
The organism on the left is a Violet Sea Snail (Janthinidae), and the one on the right is a By-the-Wind Sailor (Velella). The violet sea snail floats on the surface of the water using a raft of bubbles, and the by-the-wind sailor drifts around with its little "sail" while it feeds on smaller plankton using its short tentacles.
