Question for the gang. What are you supposed to eat on the day for health and wealth? In East Tennessee it's black eyed peas and hog jowl, which, frankly, I do not eat. Maybe that is my problem.
Gal, could you ping this to the list?

It's Chicken, Sausage & Tasso Gumbo w/ potatoe salad today.
Black-eyed peas and cabbage tommorrow.
I was raised with black eyed peas on New Years Day, mix and match to suit yourself.
Black eyed peas in chicken stock with smoked hog shank, onion, garlic and chiles, with a healthy side of corn bread, fried okra, and sweet potato pie.
Yum!
That's what we ALWAYS have on new years day.
Maybe the jowls were your problem :o)
Happy New Year to all y'all!!
