In my Mom's Family the good luck food for New Years Eve was always Sour Kraut-- You cook it all day w/ a pork roast and it really sweetens it In Tx It is Black Eyed peas and in England it is a pudding w/an almond in it I made my own version of the 2 latter and my Mom made the Kraut.-- so we had all 3 but Kraut and Black eyed peas are both kind of gassy foods so do gas and good luck have something in common?

Hi Joy -- Happy New Year!
Mrs. Jim had cabbage and black-eyed peas for our lunch today.
I don't know about that bottom dish? Is it supposed to bring luck also?
Of course we know this is tradition, not a real influence on luck.
Happy WW/WT!

Oh yes, we were in Nebraska the first part of December so we didn't have to imagine that snow.

A little gas among friends--well, it tells you who your friends are! God bless.

I really really want some of that dessert. Looks wonderful. We never had any traditional New Years meal. I wonder why? Everybody else does!

Bernie said...

Sorry, but apart from the Roast Pork, it sounds positively disgusting!!! :)

haha...too funny! Hopefully gas and good luck don't have TOO much in common because I don't like the gas, but the good luck would be nice! ;)

I recognize the black-eyed peas- but what are the other two? Glad you got your luck for the year - Happy WW!

Sharon said...

Yum! We had our black eyed peas with cornbread and cabbage yesterday as well.
Happy New Year

Tina said...

We had "Raclette" the past years on New Years Eve so we had it two days ago, too.
If you don't know what it is: you have little pans you fill with whatever you want to eat (corn, finely sliced veggies and meat if you want) put cheese on it and grill it in a special electric table grill. It's a lot of fun, I will show some pictures at my blog tomorrow or so...

Have a happy, healthy and great 2008! Tina
