Easter Already

 

How can it possibly be Easter ,it only seems  like yesterday I was complaining about the commercial  side  of Christmas,and  now the next  Christian festival to be ruined has been and gone.

As a child I remember the simple gift of one tiny egg,and always going to Church / Sunday school wearing a boater.My Mother or Father always warmed the Hot cross buns, and sang the song as they were handed out.

Hot cross buns!
Hot cross buns!
One ha' penny, two ha' penny,
Hot cross buns!
If you have no daughters,
Give them to your sons
One ha' penny,
Two ha' penny,
Hot Cross Buns!^[1]

^{Now they are available all year round.}

^{This Easter has also been very cold, in fact it has been the coldest since modern records began, this means that for many including us the Bank Holiday meant staying at home.}

^{I have seen signs of spring,last week the honey bees went into overdrive on a rare sunny day}

The last few weeks has been a time for staying in and crafting
