I love making pies. You gather and mix the ingredients into a new, one-of-a-kind structure, and then, bonus, you get to eat it – definitely a creative act worth honoring. I made the piecrust out of baker’s dough. Baked to wood-hardness, the baked look was added with acrylic paint. The pie tin and forks were found at a salvage facility. The alphabet blocks came from our grown children’s collection of toys. The red-and-white cloth wrapping the base is from a discarded kitchen tablecloth. I also developed an image of apple slices and attached it to the inside of the pie pan. The crust has the number Pi painted in white to honor our sons – one a physicist who loves mathematics and memorized a long string of Pi digits in elementary school and the other an artist who was born on Pi Day (3.14).
