Nope - they're very distinctly different. Faschingskrapfen are a bit like the Dutch Oliebollen.

Besides, Paczki is plural. Paczek is the singular. :biggrin:
I just know what the box says, and generally, that it's pronounced poonch-key. i don't know much Polish, outside of deli Polish.

The "Swedish Meatballs" principle strikes again.



Arguably the better word to learn then...
No, because the box usually says Paczki, and they guy in the bakery understands Paczki, but may not get Pacek, and tell you they don't have it. In the States, it gets dicey around Fasching/ Lent.
And then there's the Roi Cake.
Try to avoid getting this guy in your piece of cake.

That's Le Bebe.
If he shows up in your piece of cake , you have to host next years party on Mardi Gras.

Galette du Roi...

Forgive me (mind, it is 1 am here) but I fail to see the connection between a cake traditionally served on 12th Night and Shrove Tuesday celebrations... :scratch:

I've decided to experiment with taking the bus to work this morning...

But is the bus ready to go to work ?

Update.

The laundry is out on the line.

I say again, the laundry is out on the line.

Transmission ends.

Uh oh, he's sending secret messages again.

I waited until I got out of bed before washing the bedding, in much the same way as I wait until I'm out of bed to have my first wee off the day...... ^_^

There's secret messages & there's TMI.
