Cake or pie?

If you're team cake (like me), I see no reason why we should be cut off from sweet treats just because the world has turned a celebration of mathematical concepts into a reason to eat pastry: Pi Day. 

So, to all of my pie-haters out there, this one’s for you. Celebrate Pi Day by treating yourself to cake at one of these local bakeries or shops offering cupcakes, cake-by-the-slice, and more.
