Another Easter tradition is the eating of Hot Cross Buns. These cakes were marked by the Saxons to honour Eastre, the fertility goddess. The crosses on the buns are said to represent the moon's quarters, while Christians see the cross as a reference to the crucifixion.

Microsoft March 25, 2005 (AXcess News) Washington - The time for hot cross
bun is here again, as Christendom commemorates Christ's suffering
on the cross Good Friday.The bun, known for its icing cross on top
to signify the crucifixion, has been a Lenten treat for centuries
and is usually sold in bakeshops and supermarket bakeries
throughout the Easter season.
According to the indictment, Jones would steal various IBM and Penguin computer servers from Verisign's warehouse in Virginia and sell them to Johnson. Johnson would then sell the servers to several individuals, who would sometimes place them for sale on eBay. As a result of this scheme, the indictment alleges that Jones and Johnson caused Verisign to lose more than $120, 000 worth of computer equipment. In the indictment, Jones and Johnson are charged in three counts with causing the interstate transportation of stolen property, namely IBM 330 and 335 servers, in violation of 18 U.S.C.
Laptop Computers Sylvia Alexander, 50, manager and chef at Wagshal's Bakery here,
said her store started selling the buns only last week. "It is very
seasonal, just around the Easter time," she said.

connotations of hot cross buns, though she remembers her mother
making them during Lent.
Hard Drive The origin of hot cross buns is probably pagan rather than
Christian, said James Sinopoli and Charleen Huebner, chefs at
Stratford University's School of Culinary Arts in Falls Church,
Va., in e-mail interviews.The buns denoting the four quadrants of
the moon or seasons were originally made to honor Ishtar or Hathor,
the goddess of the moon in ancient Greece who was associated with
fertility and renewal, Sinopoli said.The cross shape back then was
more curved to represent the horns of an ox, and the word bun was
probably derived from the Greek word "boun," which means ox, he
added.
Travelstar Scholars believe that Christianity adapted some pagan symbols
into its doctrine rather than attempt a full-scale creation of new
ones. The chefs speculated that included the ox horns, which turned
into the cross.But the "most believable" origin of hot cross buns
is from an Anglican monk in London, Thomas Rocliffe, in 1361, said
Brandon Velie, chef at the Green Boundary Club in Aiken, S.C., in
an e-mail interview.Velie said the monk made small, spiced cakes,
stamped them with the sign of the cross and gave them to the poor
who visited his monastery, St. Albans Church, on Good Friday.
Gateway "Hot cross buns are supposed to be representative of the body of
Christ and are believed to provide healing and protection. The
cross on top is interpreted as the cross on which Jesus sacrificed
his life," Velie said.Sinopoli said the hot cross bun craze began
in England in the 17th century to vendors' loud yells of "hot cross
buns!" on the streets.
Laptop Parts When Roman Catholicism was banned in England, "It seemed as
though the hot cross buns were doomed." Some people were tried for
"popery," or taking part in Catholic practices, for signing their
buns with the cross, he added.

cross buns to certain religious ceremonies, such as Good Friday,
Velie said.Source: Scripps Howard Foundation
