Easter in Bermuda

When I was a kid in Bermuda (my stepfather is Bermudian), Easter meant hot cross buns, passion flowers, and kite making and flying :)

- Bermuda kites ... Every Easter, Bermudians of all ages build kites, usually of traditional Bermudian type ... which are flown to symbolize Christ's ascent.



- Passion flowers ... The "Passion" in "passion flower" refers to the passion of Jesus in Christian theology. In the 15th and 16th centuries, Spanish Christian missionaries adopted the unique physical structures of this plant, particularly the numbers of its various flower parts, as symbols of the last days of Jesus and especially his crucifixion ...

And here you can get a recipe for Bermuda Hot Cross Bubs :)
