Sunday savvy -
standing in the queue
a ragged man too
--gillena cox
There used to be a small bakery on the Western main road, near the George Cabral street corner. There, on a Sunday morning, a bustling trade for hops bread was the order of the day. Long lines of people would be, standing waiting to buy hops. The queue, a mini carnivalesque on a Sunday morning. People from all walks of life, from St James and district outside of St James converged to form this mini metropolis for hot freshly baked hops. Many of the Sunday attendees at the nearby St Mary's RC church, i believe were in some ways distracted, by thoughts of the purchases of hops, they planned to make after Holy Mass

Gosh I wish I were there with my camera and of course money for the bread :)
I had never heard of hops bread before, but the internet put an end to my ignorance! There are videos on making hops bread and recipes galore. Now if I could get someone to make it for me...
