Yummy Hot Cross Buns from Brasserie Bread

I lovee easter, It's my second favourite eating holiday..
After christmas of course. 

As a child it was because I knew I would get tonnes of yummy easter eggs
But now as I'm getting older I get more excited over hot cross buns and good friday feasts
(But the chocolate still excites me, I am a chocoholic afterall)

Hot cross buns are my breakfast of choice over the Easter period.
The hot cross buns from Brasserie Bread are delicious
and totally different from the Baker's Delight ones I reviewed last week
Which means when I get sick of one I can always switch to the other.
win win eh?

Every Good Friday my family holds a Good Friday seafood feast,
following the tradition of not eating meat on Good Friday.
Every creature that comes out of the ocean (almost) is set out on big silver platters.
I don't eat seafood but I love the atmosphere,
having a whole heap of family and friends around talking and sharing food 
and generally having a good time. 
Plus, there's always lots of other food.

Then Easter sunday comes and I get easter eggs!
(Mind you, I've already been eating them since they came out in stores
but an excuse to eat more is fine in my books!)
I no longer have the easter egg hunts that my six year old self waited all year for,
but I'm still convinced that easter eggs taste way better than normal chocolate.
Especially kinder suprise easter eggs! 


So now I want to know something about you, 
Does your family have any easter traditions?
