I Am Undone

Live, work, and breathe in Chicago. My fiancé has the most incredible beard imaginable and I like that he doesn't care that I identify as Slytherin. Hogwarts is my alma mater, and I enjoy a good book with a coffee chaser.

Ask me anything

herblondness: kittykittybangbang: curiousgeorgiana: staghunt: Today is paczki day as the millions of Polish Catholics of Chicago prepare for Lent. Fact: Chicago has the largest Polish population aside from Warsaw, the capitol of Poland.  Paczki’s are stuffed donuts, but they follow a more yeasty recipe have a delightful glutennous chew akin to pasta cooked al dente.  Eat all the paczkis today. YES. I am neither Polish nor Catholic but these were still a tradition where I grew up (Detroit suburb). Must find some today. I have never eaten one of these, (I am not Polish and am only theoretically Catholic) but I would absolutely wreck that thing today. We’ve been researching the best place to get these lovelies. It’s on. Prepare to be devoured, paczki.

    I am Polish, and very sad there is nowhere local to obtain these.

    Ohhh why didn’t I stop at the Polish bakery on my way to work?
  18. bbc03indisguise said: Mmm. I should go over to the Broadway Market and pick up one of those. They look delicious.

    TAK. I should go to Greenpoint and buy some today. You can pry the paczki out of my cold, dead, half-Polish hands.
