Easter inspiration please

I'm feeling incredibly lazy at the moment.

Lately, to come up with recipe ideas for any given week, I'm just looking back at the last three years' worth of posts and my paper diary to see what I ate at the same time. Then I rip my ideas off my younger self and move on. To be fair to myself, I suppose, that's kinda what I started the blog for - it's like an online version of those cute old-fashioned plastic boxes that we used to stick our recipe cards in.

Anyway. I need ideas for Easter. I'm thinking lamb, perhaps with a nice nutty crust of some sort. And maybe some smoked salmon. And something lemony. But isn't that what people always have for Easter? (I just checked back and yep, we had leeks vinaigrette and smoked salmon tartar for starter, roast lamb and veggies for the main course, and I neglected to write down the dessert. Wow, I am really not in the zone.)

But I want NEW things, and I want NEW ingredients! Can someone please invent some new ingredients please? And I'm not talking about that horrid trend of making brands into ingredients, as Tim Hayward talked about a couple of weeks ago. I want that exciting feeling of using a parsnip for the first time (which it may or may not surprise you to know didn't happen until I was 23).

Should I just get over myself and accept we live in a cyclical world and that it's not going to be possible to reinvent the wheel every year? Or am I just in a rut, and do you know just the thing to inspire me? And please don't tell me to eat a bunny. Okay, rant over...
