I forgot that today is Pi day! In honor of Pi day, however, I did partake in some pie. I made peanut butter pie today. Screw the peanut butter recall, I’m going to eat peanut butter if I want it. We checked to make sure ours wasn’t part of the recall. It was the easiest pie I’ve ever made, too. Made a simple crust out of nilla wafers instead of graham crackers, creamed together the peanut butter, cream cheese and confectioners sugar. Let it mix until it was soft and fluffy, then folded in cool whip. Filled the crust and put it in the freezer until it was set up. Transferred to the fridge after it was set.

I also decided today was a good day to make chicken wings. That was kind of a bad idea, though. They weren’t thawed completely when I went to bake them so they ended up steaming in the pan I poured off a ton of water when I took them out. They were alright, but not as good as the last batch I made. Guess I’ll stick with tossing them in the fryer from now on, since baking was made of fail.

I am also highly annoyed with my DSL provider. This is the second time in less than a month that we’ve gone without Internet for multiple hours. It went down around 9:30 last night and I have no idea what time it came back. It was still down when I went to bed around midnight or so. I woke up around 8 and it was back up. It’s not cool, really. It makes it hard to look at Sferra linens. Yeah, I really was trying to find new blankets for our bed. It’s time to think about a lighter weight spring/summer blanket and I don’t really have any that match my bedding. The price for the Sferra isn’t bad, but a bit out of my price range. Definitely beautiful and I’d love to have some of their bedding.

Ah well, I guess that since Pi day is over, so is this post.
