January 31st 31/366

Instead of Mardi Gras to crown the carnival, we celebrate Tłusty Czwartek, or Fat Thursday. It's traditional to eat pączki on that day- they're a bit like doughnuts without holes and a jam filling. They're very popular on any other day, but on Fat Thursday the country goes mad for them.
