Happy Faschnaut Day!

Fat Tuesday, the day before the start of Lent, it is tradition to use up the items in your kitchen that wouldn’t be used during the semi-fasting period to follow. Here in southern PA, home to the PA Dutch and Amish, the day is known as “Faschnaut Day”. A faschnaut is a wonderfully sinful deep fried donut originally made for the purpose of using up some of that kitchen stock. (source)

So in honor of this great tradition, Sue decided we would make faschnaut's for our residents! We made AND sold 300 faschnauts!







See you again next year faschnauts! :)
