The rain has moved on and the sun returned. It's as good a day as any to get the new art hanging in the oak out front. A good day for that in fact. I'm pleased with how this turned out and will be making more (single circle) pieces to sell on Etsy.
In other news...apparently it's paczki day? My mom used to call this Shrove Tuesday, the day before lent starts. We never made nor sought out pazcki on this day. It wasn't part of my family's traditions. We always used to have this pastry at Christmas eve, which seemed odd to me. Nowhere in my books on Polish Christmas did they note this food being served. Recently, however, I learned that this was more of a Ukrainian tradition at Christmas. This then made sense to me, since my maternal grandmother grew up in a village that's now part of Ukraine.
There were some paczki I froze from Christmas so I thought I'd bring one out and heat it up for an afternoon treat. So now, probably for the first time in my life, I had paczki on paczki day.
