Happy New Year!
This afternoon, we had a party for me to start the new year. Prepared "Hoppin 'John" (John jumping) - a good luck dish is eaten on New Year's Day in the U.S. South.
ingredients have meaning: the beans mean coins, the kale means dollars, the corn bread means gold, and rice means luck. As Hoppin 'John that is eaten, the more luck and money received during the new year.
we had 38 guests who ate Hoppin 'John with us, including friends from the dog park, friends my English class, friends in Mexico, friends of my group of ukulele, and our neighbors. Hopefully with good health and good luck in 2010!
