Last Thursday was Fat Thursday or in Poland Tlusty Czwartek. The one day of the year where eating donuts is guilt free. Unfortunately, the donuts in Australia just aren’t up to scratch when compared to the yummy, spongy, and jam filled donuts you can get in Poland. Poland trumps Australia when it comes to donut flavour and well Donut King and Krispy Creams just aren’t up to scratch when it comes to Fat Thursday or Tlusty Czwartek.
This year my ordered donuts from one of the European bakeries in our area and they were almost as good as the ones in Poland. Almost because they were sugar laden which wasn’t necessary as the jam inside was sweet enough. For that I have to give them bonus points, normally I’m disappointed with the small amount of jam found in jam donuts. It’s just not a jam donut with jam spilling out as you eat it.
Full disclosure. I had two donuts. One for me and one for baby. We were both happy.
Getting out of bed this morning was difficult. It’s from the sugar. So we’re back to our normal eating habits today.
Oh and speaking of food, it’s pancake Tuesday next Tuesday here in Australia. I’m thinking pancakes, pikelets and crepes all day long 🙂 So maybe not all day, but I wouldn’t say no to them for breakfast or dinner with jam and cream. Ok, this is the pregnant lady talking.
