Hope you all had a fantastic Fat Tuesday. I did!
I haven’t had a paczki in years. I have lived in New York, an apparently paczki free zone, and timed my diets so they unfortunately overlapped with Fat Tuesday. Not today. Today was my day to shine. And if you are going to come out of a paczki coma, then you might as well do it right.
I went straight to the source, Hamtramck’s New Martha Washington Bakery. I waited in line for one hour and three minutes. The hour was fabulous. Made new friends, dreamt about the pastries that would soon be mine. The last three minutes, on the other hand, I could do without.
The back half of the line started to get mean. People were yelling at one another and cursing. My half of the line was appalled. We tried to reason with the back half, but they didn’t want to hear it. They were heated and all because of a delicious, 400 calorie, polish donut.
Final thoughts on the experience? WORTH IT!!!
With love from Detroit,

Did you and Ryan eat the whole box?? Or did Jack help? 🙂
We shared but I still had 4 total since Fat Tuesday. It’s a personal best.
