What Is Your New YEAR'S Good Luck Food??

What is the traditional 'Good Luck' food in your area?  Here in the Missouri Ozark's it is blackeyed peas!  I will spend Saturday cooking 4 pounds for friends and family.  

You begin with dry peas, soak them, find a giant stock pot and begin adding all the good stuff!!  You know--like ham, hot sausage, bacon, onion, celery, tomatoes with green chilies, garlic, hot peppers.  Simmer for several hours and serve with hot cornbread! 

Of course the blackeyed peas are also served up with a good dose of football bowl games.  After all it is New Year's Eve and New Year's Day!

If you eat your bowl of peas it guarantees a prosperous and happy new year!!  So what else would a good real estate agent do??  After all you can't risk having a bad year!!
