"Ole HD." Sigh. I guess it's better than "The late" as an adjective.

Actually it's "kolachki," but no sweat - hell I had to look it up myself. Even in my Pollack neighborhood, it gets hard to find good ones, although I am pretty anti-kolachki biased. They are just too dry for my tastes, and often poppy seed or walnut filled. Too much dough, and not good donoughnut-ty dough either. But not dry and flaky like a tasty croissant - just a crappy in-between type of dough.

However - they are often covered with powdered sugar. So it is not uncommon for one partaking in kolachki to get dusted with the old sugar mustache. Which makes me think: what the hell did TxBec look like (and more importantly, what had she been doing?) when she walked in that she thought "eating kolachki" was a valid excuse????
