FAT Tuesday!

Post by Sparkfist »

Ok I know most people that dont live in the Chicago or Detroit area have not idea what this day is. Well its for the most part a Polish holiday, were before lent (try and keep off religion) they use the last of their fat/grease and make ponchikis(sp)! Their like dounuts, but more round and.... damn my mouth is watering. They're great. If you get a chance you should buy some at least once in you life, I'm going to go out soon and buy a dozen or two or three, their that good.

Has anyone had the pleasure to try these pastries?

FAT on Linux = evil. Though I was thinking I may use it for a swap partition for a dual-boot and make it the swap partition for both Windows and Linux :)
I think I have had Paczis before, but I don't honestly remember. Between them and pierogies and various other eastern European pastries :)

so, how many people here are Catholic besides me, JackFrost, and Sparkfist (I don't think this'll be too bad, as long as people don't go low enough to insult other people's religions. If this post is deleted, that's fine, I guess)

I am Roman Catholic. However in Japan its hard to stay away from meat when it is not exatcly readily available. :lol: But you know. Even though I am an exchange student I am going to try to stay with what my parents taught me and besides... mom and dad called me just to ask to do lent... Interesting parents these days, eh?
Anyway, I want to eat those glorious pastries. All my friends that have eaten them (I have a few friends from Chi-town and those areas, and my family is in New York, you want anything, go to New York). So yeah, family and friends have said that they are like the pastry that was given to mankind from a higher source! I saw one once... It looks good. :o
When in Japan with access to just about every system ever made and those that have yet to see international soil, gather your forces, and make the cool ones your own.
