Happy Pi Day From the Hair Pie. Hair Pin. Hairpin

As you may have noticed all over the internet, people are celebrating Pi Day today (March 14 a.k.a. 3/14) by posting pictures of pies featuring the pi symbol baked into them somehow. Although these pies are very cute and probably delicious, The Hairpin is celebrating Pi Day by sharing stories about pies, of which there are probably very few.

But here’s one. Did you/do you know what a hair pie is? I didn’t until this site was getting started and an esteemed colleague said something along the lines of, “Hairpin — everyone’s immediately going to think hair pie.” And I was like, “What? What’s a hair pie?” And he was like “…” and I was like, “Oh.”

Now you tell a pie story.
