    Happy Paczki Day!

    Anyone else having a paczek today? I had one with the first cup of coffee from a fresh pot, & it was a tiny (well, hockey puck-sized) slice of heaven. angel

     

    For those who don’t know what paczki are:

    Glad you liked them, Anne. I’d feel bad encouraging you to eat something that tasted awful!

     

    The best paczki I’ve ever had were fresh from the New Palace Bakery in Hamtramck last year. They were slightly warm & were almost delicate....
