I have a confession: I’m not a mathematical sort of a person. My experience with the subject involved falling asleep and drawing, respectively, during my math classes in high school. I was the drama and music nerd that begrudged the fact that maths was a necessary part of the curriculum. That is, with one exception: Pi.

To this day, I couldn’t tell you why it is what it is*, but I can rattle off the numbers to 12+ digits, and I can tell you I feel connected to it. Yes indeed, Pi is the 3.1 4 me.

We have pooled together our resources to bring you 20 hella-awesome Pi Gifts that are not just cool on Pi Day!

*(this is a lie.)
