#SoCS Hot Cross Bun

March 31, 2018February 10, 2019/Judy E Martin

This week Linda has given us, bun for our Stream of Consciousness posts, which can be used any way we choose.

Seeing as it is Easter weekend I just have to mention the good old hot cross bun, which in case you are not familiar with, you can read about them here.

The fact that they are so soft and squidgy and doughy and delicious plus carb laden goes without saying that I love them. They taste absolutely gorgeous with a generous dollop of butter slathered on them, and, of course, me being me, who doesn’t know when to stop, a sizeable chunk of cheddar really adds to the experience!

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!

A little nursery rhyme to finish up with, enjoy! [social_warfare]

I eat them with cheese too – Toasted with a wedge of brie for me!

    I don’t think I’ve even seen them around here. The bakery we went to in Chicago were Jewish, so we could get bagels and macaroons (and something called kikkel that was quite tasty), but it was hardly a place where you could get hot cross buns. Here, if you can’t get it at the supermarket, forget it.

We also always have hot cross buns on Good Friday, Judy. I never heard of anyone putting cheese on them before though. A novel idea.
