Easter

A glorious Good Friday here in the Garden City - been outside all day weeding and having a general tidy up before Autumn finally arrives.

I made Hot Cross Buns for the first time today - used a recipe from here which I tweaked a little.  I added cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, grated orange and lemon rind, and sultanas instead of currants.  They turned out fantastic - even my dried fruit hating son gobbled them up.

Happy Easter everyone - if you are driving near or far - take care, don't be one of the statistics.
