Fat Thursday in Apple Class!

Today in Apple class we learnt about a new celebration, Fat Thursday. Fat Thursday is the last Thursday before Lent and is celebrated by Nela's family. Traditionally it is dedicated to eating and people meet up to eat large quantities of sweets, cakes and other meals not usually eaten during Lent. In Poland the most popular dish to eat on Fat Thursday is Pączki which is a donut like pastry. Nela made some Pączki with her family and brought some in to share with her friends in Apple Class. Thank you for sharing your families traditions Nela. They were delicious!
