The We Love Pi team celebrates Pi day everyday, every year. We see Pi everywhere. On a cup near our fish, summer flip flops, lamps, sea shells and remote controls, everyday life seems to be getting in pi formation whenever the team is around - we have fun as a Pi or take note of important historic Pi dates and times on that day and time!! Oh what would life be without pie.. Ahem!!We meant Pi!!
