Like many of my neighbors I refuse to go out on "amateur's night" so we are having a neighborhood party. Food, drinks, games and then a short walk home.

Staying home.......too many drunk drivers out and about and law enforcement will be in full force here. One of my neighbors is an Horry County police sergent and while he could not tell me specifics he said there will be alot of suprises for drivers this year..more so than normal.

I know, at least in the American South, eating peas and greens are symbolic of wealth for the coming year. The peas are for cents and the greens (be they turnip, collard, mustard or poke sallet) are for dollars.

A ham, for health, black eyed peas, for luck, and cabbage, for wealth. Many variations on how each are cooked.

Interesting ... This must be a southern thing. Up in New England I've never heard of any of the variations mentioned by our southern sly brothers.
We're having King Crab Legs, for taste. -

And look at the winters you guys have, ice, no power, etc.
Just pulling you leg. We'd gladly switch to lobster if that was available

Yeah, winter sucks. It was fun for the first 2 storms and nice having a white Christmas but I'm ready for Spring ...
Regarding the lobster - I'm not tired of it.
During the Summer we get lobsters right off the boats in Rhode Island. 3 months until Spring ....
