In other words - enjoy a Paczki today. I loved that when I did a search on Google to find a suitable picture, this one came up from a bakery in GLADWIN!! What are the chances?!
Happy Paczki Day/Fat Tuesday/Day Before Lent to my Polish family!
And try to make an Ash of yourself tomorrow.
SMACZNY!!
My Paczki Day will be celebrated tonight as I imbibe in thin chocolate wafers smothered in alcohol infused whipped cream. MUCH more enticing to me than that fat sugar laden lump of dough!!!!!! MMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!
ReplyDeleteFat Tuesday it is.
ReplyDelete400+ cal / 25+ grams fat each.
I like the Chrusciki better.
btw - searching both Paczki and Chrusciki on the Livestrong Healthy Eating forum:

I guess I'm not as Polish as I should be. I did not go in search of any paczki yesterday. The best I got was Jim and I made some chocolate chip cookies, and my friend brought a bag of chocolate to catechism last night. We mentioned paczki, but that's as far as it went. I had a lot of bread and cheese with my pasta...does that count at all. No...Kevin's right; there are no alternatives. Happy Fasting. Let's all "Give it Up" for JC. But what???
