Today it's Good Friday, Venerdi Santo. A friend and I were disappointed to find that the wonderful on line shop that delivered our Christmas puddings and mince pies did not have Hot cross buns just a Hot Cross bun cake.
Every year whoever went back to Britain in the Spring, of my British friends would come back with Hot cross buns for everyone and invite us all round for tea and buns. This year though no-one had the chance and so I ordered the Hot Cross bun cake, so here it is and it's better than nothing. Here is the childhood rhyme that goes with the Hot Cross Buns.
Hot Cross buns
Hot Cross buns,
One a penny
Two a penny
Hot Cross buns.
If you have no daughters
Give them to your sons
One a penny
Two a penny
Hot Cross buns.
