Hot Cross Buns
Friday, April 22nd, 2011 07:03 pmA few words about hot cross buns available from popular retailers, based on my samplings in recent weeks:
1. Sainsburys are the nicest, plenty of variety of dried fruit within. Makes the buns full of flavour, very moreish.
2. Greggs are OK, light in texture and almost like bread, probably needs toasting to bring out its flavours because it's a bit bland untoasted.
3. Tescos - not bad, third of the three but I wouldn't turn them down, it's just that they're nothing special.
Am currently tootling round San Francisco on Google Earth & Google Street View. It all looks so amazing and beautiful. Check out my Tumblr for pics.
Zumba on Wednesday night was really good, no new stuff, just the Merengue-ish routine I've done only once before, which I don't like because it's clearly designed for people with flatter chests than I have, but at least it's over quickly. My hamstrings were sore yesterday (one still isn't 100% today) cos I was trying to show off how I know all the routines and I'm really good at them to the newbies. Apart from the aches and the out-of-breathiness moments, I seriously totally love Zumba.
One week until Space Shuttle Endeavour launches for the final time. I can't believe it's come round so quickly, I know Atlantis will have a final mission in early summer but it really feels like the finale is upon us. And I know we'll find out soon enough, but I just can't imagine what it will feel like when the space shuttle program is completed.
