I haven't been there in years but I believe tomato pies are as localized to Trenton as Double Italian Hot Dogs are to N Newark.

Damn good comfort food!

Another good article about tomato pie:Trenton Tomato Pies Are Still A Staple of the New Jersey Pizza Scene-www.njmonthly.com

The title of the thread is a bit misleading...Should read "Happy Pi Day".
I had just assumed everyone was in on the joke.

Just by coincidence, we had chicken pot pie for dinner.

Kensington! Haven't thought about that neighborhood for years. I remember their string band in the Mummers Parade...

I last made an apple pie for Thanksgiving. Pies have been totally off my radar screen.

Not only is it Pi Day, it's also Einstein's birthday!

My wife has something up her sleeve, but last year she made these delights..



It's kind of a big deal in our house. My father-in law is a Prof. Emeritus of Computer Science and Mathematics and both of my kids are in upper level AP math courses (they LOVE math)..
