Gets eager, excited, for seasonal treat (6,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

easter egg

'seasonal treat' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'gets eager excited' is the wordplay.
'excited' is an anagram indicator.
'gets'+'eager'='getseager'
'getseager' with letters rearranged gives 'EASTER-EGG'.

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for easter egg that I've seen before include "Seasonal present" , "Edible seasonal symbol" , "DVD feature?" , "Segregate from traditional chocolate ovum" , "DVD bonus" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
