Traditions for Ringing In the New Year!

The old superstition is that what you are doing at midnight of when the New Year arrives is what you will do throughout the year.

We are not big party goers, so most of the time we are together as a family playing board games and eating snacks. It is not a glamorous activity, but it is a time of bonding and validating our family values.

On New Year's Day, I watch a lot of college football. But it has been a tradition in our home that we have Black Eyed Peas as a part of a meal on the First. Again the old superstition is that the more black eyed peas you eat, the more prosperous you will be in the New Year. I am not superstitious, but I do like black eyed peas, so I eat a generous portion!

How do you ring in the New Year?
