I hope all you guys loaded up on black eyed peas today. It is the surest route to good luck all year long, at least according to my mother-in-law. Cook those babies with some ham left over from Christmas and they are yumeee! Add some cornbread and all is right with the world, well much of it anyways.
Happy New Year,
Ray

In this part of Pennsylvania sauerkraut and pork is the traditional meal on New Year's Day. I had mine around 3 o'clock this afternoon.
Happy New Year!

Well, our New Year's meal followed most of what everyone else had. The table consisted of sauerkraut w/spare ribs (pork ribs), mashed potatoes, sweet corn, black-eyed peas with ham from Christmas and rice, onions and yellow corn bread (southern style-no sugar). Yum-Yum!!

I remember that my grand-dad (1st generation German-American) made his own sauerkraut, pickled herring and egg-nog for the holidays, he was also a home-brewer.

Was talking to a older lady of strong german heritage, this morning. She said that her grandpa always believed the reason that you should eat pork on New Year's is; that hogs root forward, chickens scratch backward, and cattle stand still.
Take THAT for whatever it's worth!?
