Happy Fat Tuesday!

This is the only time of the year to eat paczkis! I’m not talking about the cheap things you can buy at the grocery store, I’m mean the real-deal, authentic Polish paczkis!

Paczkis are a treat every year. ❤ I think that I liked the custard the best. For it being Fat Tuesday, I’m feeling very skinny! My only indulgence today was one paczki.

Okay, as I’m writing this, the spell-checker says that paczki is incorrect. Of course that’s because it’s Polish. Here’s how to pronounce it: Poon-shki. Or at least that’s how everyone around here pronounces it. I’ve also heard punch-key and pawnch-key.

I’m sure you’ll say it at least one of the ways I’ve listed, besides pak-zi, but if not….

How do you pronounce PACZKI?

Happy Fat Tuesday!
