The other day I heard someone say it's black eyed peas for good luck and greens for fortune. That (and the cole slaw) is a new one to me. I'm amused by traditions such as these. Apparently in Italy, it's red (or yellow?) lentils (because they're shaped like coins). And I think Andres said that Colombians peel grapes on new year's eve for luck, but I never got the full story on that one.jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453284955114021177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1852652711778482963.post-33264301304880207502008-01-04T08:48:00.000-08:002008-01-04T08:48:00.000-08:00Hey we had black eyed peas for New Years too!!!
