Happy new years
12 years ago
lets share a tradition =3
For new years we make a slow cooked pork roast, started to cook about 6pm.
we watch the ball drop at midnight like most people now, and when it's done everyone kisses everyone.
Then we take a silver dollar and a slice of bread, and walk to the corner ( which is significantly better in Florida then it was in Jersey because there is no chance of snow, but we did in in the snow anyway back then ) on the way back we throw the bread to the birds and come back to wine and the pork.
Each part has a meaning. The bread, means you'll have food for the year. Giving the bread means you'll remember to be charitable. The silver means you'll have enough money. Going to the corner and back means you'll have safe travels and always find a home. The wine means you'll have fun, the kisses mean love, and the pork is good luck.
So in the first five minutes of the new year, you'll have been kissed by everyone in the room, traveled, eaten a good meal, became 1 dollar richer, gave to the less fortunate, got home safe, saved money for the future, and most importantly, had fun.
Not a bad way to start off the new year, is it?
