   Code orange for Fat Tuesday !!!!!!

   (chocolate on choclate and custard, both)

   If that is a bit much for ya' (it is for me), try the dark chocolate beggars or the salt caramels.

   Celebrate Fat Tuesday, or celebrate 59 degrees outside?!?!

   Just for the record,

   I realize I mutilated the spelling of these traditional Polish pastries. I have no idea why I though there was an "n" in there.

   Regardless, someone should go out and eat them tomorrow.

   oh Paczkis!!! I have wonderful memories of making them with my Grandma Betczynski in Chicago!

   Didn't know Bakery N made them. :-)

   Well, if I have made one person happy MargL, then it has all been worth it. ;).

   So, tell me, how is it pronounced phonetically?

   Grandma Ski (and thus the Family) always said "poonch-kee"

   Last year Metropolitan Market (now a WSB sponsor) had a big hoo-hah about Paczkis (advising the same pronunciation MargL counsels).

   If they're doing it again this year, we haven't heard a peep. Although Metro Market-Admiral IS planning a harpist for Valentine's Day, 1-3 pm ...

   Paczki update - Metro Market IS doing a big fun deal on Fat Tuesday morning like they did last year. Just heard from the store manager. Details to come.
