Just finished the New Year's Day tradition (borrowed from a Yankee girlfriend years ago) of pork roast, sauerkraut, weenies and bacon crumbles, black-eyed peas and mashed potatoes. I couldn't taste it.

I had chili dogs! Not because it's a tradition, though. More so because they are tasty and I had the ingredients on hand (chili, and dogs)

I made a taco salad bar. Ground beef with real garlic and taco seasoning, sliced baby tomatoes, lettuce, taco sauce, shredded cheese, nacho cheese and tortilla chips.

We did the whole Mexican food thing for Christmas. It was a big hit. With most of us. I gotta tell ya, the leftovers were a LOT better than a turkey leg.

Well, it's the Breakfast of Champions hereabouts fer sure but if I was your superstitious granny I would have been chasing you down with a spoonful of black-eyed peas if nothing else. "Just a bite, honey! You have to!"

The GF made a stew of the usual suspect items, including black eyed peas, cabbage, and ham. It was pretty tasty, given that it had to contain black eyed peas.

New Years celebrants are a superstitious and cowardly lot.

Is eating black eyed peas on New Years a southern thing? I've never heard of the tradition.
