Pączki Day is Tuesday!

Fat Tuesday falls on Feb. 17 this year, which means one thing in Milwaukee: Pączki Day. National Bakery is going all out for its 100th anniversary with 40,000 pączki, accordion players at all three locations, and custom t-shirts. Grebe's Bakery on Lincoln Ave. is rolling out a new glazed apricot flavor alongside the classics. Kurt Schulz Deli in Brown Deer is taking preorders through Feb. 14 (call ahead — they go fast). La Tarte in Wauwatosa and Gather Bakehouse in Bay View are also stocking up. Whether your family is Team Raspberry or Team Custard, get there early — the lines are part of the tradition. Here's our full Pączki Day roundup.

Cheer On Wisconsin at the Winter Olympics

The Winter Olympics are in full swing in Milan, and Wisconsin is all over it.

The biggest name to watch this week is Kewaskum's Jordan Stolz, a 21-year-old speed skating phenom who qualified at Milwaukee's own Pettit National Ice Center. Stolz races the men's 1000m TONIGHT (Wednesday, Feb. 11) on NBC and Peacock, followed by the 500m on Saturday, Feb. 14, and he's a gold medal favorite in both.

Beyond Stolz, Brookfield's Marcus Mueller is making his Olympic debut in doubles luge, Pewaukee's Jadin O'Brien is competing in two-woman bobsled, and a whopping 12 current and former UW Badgers are playing women's hockey for Team USA, Canada, and Czechia — including Hilary Knight, who's appearing in her record fifth Olympics. It's a great week to gather the family around the TV and cheer loud for the home state.
