s soon we’ve got all the Christmas festivities out of the way, it seems that the promotional drive for Easter begins. But apart from buying lots of chocolate and Easter eggs for the children, we don’t really celebrate with much else these days. Maybe it’s because religion isn’t as present in our lives as it used to be, and so these festive occasions get missed off the social calendar. In Italy and other European countries, however, they seem to be more symbolic and important. In the food world, Easter also marks the beginning of spring, which is the time when we start eating spring lamb - a common Easter Sunday roast all over Europe (though in countries such as Greece, it’s more likely to be kid goat).
