☆ Sweet-toothed Poles shrug off inflation bellyache on 'Fat Thursday'

[1/3] Doughnuts are displayed during Fat Thursday, traditional celebrations when Poles eat doughnuts marking the last Thursday before the start of Lent, at a bakery in Warsaw, Poland February 11, 2021. REUTERS/Kacper PempelWARSAW, Feb 16 (Reuters) - Poles formed long queues to buy doughnuts on their "Fat Thursday", piling in for the sugary treats even though double-digit inflation has taken a bite out of their income. On the last Thursday before Lent, the period when Christians traditionally fast before Easter, Poles stuff their faces with doughnuts in a festival of calorific indulgence. "Last Fat Thursday, doughnuts cost 3.50 zlotys ($0.78) each," said Syliwa Tomaszkiewicz, 45, owner of the Zagozdzinski Confectionery Workshop. For 73-year-old pensioner Jadwiga Staniewska, it was important to keep the tradition of Fat Thursday alive.

Iată câteva protagoniste ale proiectului The Good Memories,Alina și fiul ei Nicolae„Eram singurul copil în familie și părinții mi-au dat tot ce au putut, deși nu erau bogați. Fiica mea cea mai mică, Sofia, este alături de mine, dar pe ceilalți 2 băieți și o fată, rareori ajung să-i văd. Am fost crescută de ambii părinții și eu avem 2 frați, dar din păcate părinții au murit și nu vorbesc cu frații mei. Am iubit-o foarte mult – a fost o mamă pentru mine. Dar când a fost eliberat, nu a spus niciun cuvânt și nici nu a venit să-și vadă copilul.
