& π (Ampersand Pi)

I wanted to make a pie for pi day yesterday, but I had so much work to do, I didn’t think I could justify taking the time.  But then I realized: if I put an ampersand on the pie, it TOTALLY qualifies as work!  Because my Division III (thesis-esque) project is all about ampersands (the & symbol) and making ampersand related objects…

Behold, vegan four-berry (dare I say, JAMpersand?) pi:

Ampersand Pi

This would probably be the right opportunity to reveal the ampersand cookie cutter I made recently:

The cookie cutter is only one of several Very Exciting Things I’ve been making in the Lemelson shop lately for my project; others include pillows, windchimes, a lamp, a sponge, & so forth, all in the form of the ampersand.  More photos to trickle out soon as I finish things up!

Pumpkin season!

I promised recipes on this blog, so here’s a recipe!  The last few days I’ve had a lot of turbulent energy after work that I needed to channel into something.  So I made a few pumpkin pies, and last night I made pumpkin biscuits.  I had never made pie or biscuits before, but they both came out quite nice.  My only regret with the biscuits is I made them a little too thin.  While they have a good biscuity texture, they’re also rather moist, which is nice.
