Hot Cross Buns



Hot Cross Buns, Hot Cross Buns
1 a penny, 2 a penny
Hot Cross Buns
If your daughters don't like them
Give them to your sons
1 a penny, 2 a penny
Hot Cross Buns

Well I was introduced to hot cross buns by Mummy today when she went to Cheh-cheh Baker's bakery. A hot cross bun is a sweet spiced bun made with raisins and also some candied citrus fruits and is marked with a cross on the top. See the pic.

This Friday being Good Friday, it is said that hot cross buns are eaten on Good Fridays, with the cross symbolizing the crucifixion. Nevertheless, Pastor would always remind us never to forget that Jesus rose on the 3rd day after the crucifixion.
