Unplanned experiment


This is my day today, so far, written in list form:

Got up.
Had a cup of tea and a toasted hot cross bun for breakfast.
Drove to work.
Had a cup of coffee, with a plain hot cross bun.
Did some work on computer.
Helped out in our serving booth.
Popped over to supermarket staff canteen for lunch, having two of their luxury hot cross buns (made that morning in the in-store bakery)
Helped a lady who had (somehow) got our diesel pump nozzle stuck in the side of her car.
Chatted with a member of staff, who had brought some home-made hot cross buns for us to share on our break.
Tidied my office for the first time in three months.
Drove home.
Sat in garden with Philippa, who had kindly spent the afternoon baking some hot cross buns ‘because I know how much you like them’….

My conclusions?

a)    Hot Cross buns taste much better when soaked in butter.
b)    It is possible to go an entire day eating only Hot Cross buns.
c)    If I see another Hot Cross bun this year, I’ll throw myself off a cliff.
