All in the name of Chrus-ciki!

February 3, 2008 · WCC Administr@tr · 2 Comments

In honor of Fat Tuesday, I attended a “Paczki-Palooza” of sorts! Thanks to Chef Dobra and her family at Delightful Pastries, we helped make chrusciki crueller cookies and fried our own paczki, glazed and filled them.joanpics044-3419864joanpics045-6040757joanpics102-8387043

chrusciki “doo-dad” or “thingamajigger”
It was a special piece Chef Dobra received from
a family member and is over 50 years old!
