GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Scully's Statewide Moving marked a 10-year tradition this Fat Tuesday, passing out paczki to dozens of businesses across West Michigan.
“Yesterday I went to the lakeshore and I had a dozen stops. Today we’re all the way from Rockford, to Forest Hills, to Kentwood, to Hudsonville, Standale and downtown Grand Rapids,” Ed Sypniewski said.
The stops are all about delivering a Polish tradition: paczki, similar to — but not to be confused with — a jelly doughnut.
“I’ve made 8 so far, and I have 20 more to go. We have three teams out today, making a total of 75 stops,” Sypniewski said.
Every stop brings a smile with it.
“The best day ever," Ed said as he entered one Five Star Realty on Lake Michigan Drive.
Fat Tuesday is a Lenten tradition Polish-Catholics and many others observe ahead of 40 days of fasting until Easter.
