Twas Almost Fat Tuesday
This is a poem that was written by the owner of my workplace. I thought it was cute and she gave me permission to post it on here. Enjoy!
Twas Almost Fat Tuesday
Twas almost Fat Tuesday
And all through the store
The paczkis were selling
We kept making more
With Juan at the fryer
And Sarah at the hopper
She was filling the paczkis
And you just couldn't stop her
Then onto the icings
And some sugared too
Then into their boxes
They went two by two
They were sorted and counted and labeled by name
So customers would know they weren't all the same
Some lemon and custard and apple and prune
Raspberry, blueberry, they'll all be gone soon
And I heard Sarah say when the last paczki was done
Happy Paczki Day to all! This sure has been fun.
Sarah-Bakery manager
Juan-One of our bakers
Hopper-What we use to put the fillings in
Paczki (pronounced poonch-key)-Filled round donut. Also called a bismark.
Fat Tuesday (also known as Mardi Gras)-Day before Ash Wednesday.
