St. Patrick s Day is normally the busiest day of the year for Logan s Alley but they ve instead chosen to stay closed today.
The neighborhood bar, located on Grand Rapids north side, said they rather err on the side of caution. In a Facebook post, Logan s said holding their annual party wouldn t be the same, and as fun, at only a 50% capacity. Sounds like a pretty legit reason especially on a day like today that normally brings people together. Which as we know, in 2021 isn t social distance friendly LOL.
Furthermore, Logan s said they don t want to risk losing their license or getting shut down if they did proceed with the party.
Today is International Women s Day and this year s theme is Women in leadership: Achieving an equal future in a COVID-19 world.
There are countless ways to celebrate the day, but the big event is the United Nations International Women s Day virtual even that will be streamed on the United Nations YouTube Channel.
The virtual event will feature a few panels of speakers who will touch on various subjects throughout the event.
Speakers for the United Nations International Women s Day 2021 Celebration include:
H.E. António Guterres, Secretary General of the United Nations
H.E. Volkan Bozkir, President of the UN General Assembly
Do You Know The Difference Between Paczki And Paczek?
First off, let s learn how to pronounce both of those words.
Paczki - POONCH-kee
Paczek - POON-check
What s the difference other than the pronunciation? Well, one of those words is the singular name of that yummy cream filled, fried donut and the other is its plural form.
So, when you are at the store and you want to buy a dozen paczki, you say can I have a dozen paczki? You don t say paczkis because that isn t a word and you would only say paczek if you were buying one.
And then when you are enjoying a paczek, you should never refer to it as a paczki because that means you have more than one. Unless of course, you are double fisting paczki because they are so darn good, it s a waste not to have one in each hand.
