Easter week, like Christmas,
has its own traditional dishes.
Legend tells that in old England
on Good Friday morning the bak-
er’s boy could be heard calling:
"Hot Cross Buns! One a
penny, two a penny — hot cross
buns.”
This bun was believed to hold
a charm. In the old days, the
gentry saw to it that a bun was
hung in the chimney place on
Good Friday and left there
throughout the year. The bun
was supposed to bring good luck
by preventing evil spirits from
descending the chimney to ruin
bread-baking and cause other do-
mestic troubles.
