To Pie or Not to Pi?

• Tiffany was having a meeting with the girls in
  her Its All About Me club. She decided to
  serve some PIE.

This is the recipe.

After Tiffany served the pie, everyone commented
on how GREAT it was! Her friend Camelia told her
that she needed to put it on the market.
Hmmm

Tiffany thought about it, and she decided to try
the pie out on her aunt and cousin.
They LOVED IT! Ashley told her to GO FOR IT!

the grocery store to determine what would be a
reasonable price to sell her pies.

Tiffany is not impressed.
She thinks it will take her too long to become a
millionaire. So she decides to stick to
plain-old PI instead. Hey, if she sells 6 pies
every day, how long will it take for her to
become a millionaire? BECAUSE

You know we ALL love PIE!
