Need some colour...GO ORGANIC

I'm always a little reluctant to bring out Hot Cross Buns and Easter treats early, much to my children's disgust.  In our home, Hot Cross Buns are saved for the Easter period in an important tradition that the kids look forward to.  Rituals and traditions are the backbones that bind communities and families and interestingly the world over, they are usually formed around food and meals.  You see every culture in the world uses special foods to mark special occasions and celebrate its significance in their lives.  Its these important traditions that over time have brought people together to bake, stir and cook with a common goal of celebrating life by creating foods that nourish the soul as much as the body. 
In Australia we are so blessed with so many different cultures with so many rituals, that we can celebrate life with the people we love irrespective of our religious denominations by creating our own family rituals, one's that can be passed on for generations to come.  Even better your can re-establish your own families rituals as simplistic as they may have been, they are so important. 

This week, we are all about Easter, I know a tad early, but this gives you an opportunity to get organised.  Bake some of your own Hot Cross Buns-in a ritual everyone around you will love... or try your hand at creating your own easter treats.  We will be posting some inventive ways to package and present your treats in an eco friendly but gorgeous ways as well as yummy healthy organic recipes to make.
Don't forget to stock up with the freshest organics for the the Easter period.
