Eating John

Hoppin' John on New Years Day for Luck
Hoppin’ John that is! Even though he’s not Southern born and bred, Keith makes a very big deal of always having Hoppin’ John every New Years Day. It’s a Southern tradition that is supposed to bring luck and prosperity for the coming year. Just watch out for the dime/penny /nickel that is supposed to be placed in the pot – don’t want to start the new year with costly dental bills LOL.
So, off to enjoy my roast chicken and Hoppin’ John and hope that it helps – heck its only the two of us so either way (he gets the coin or I get it) we’ll have good luck and prosperity for 2009 – w00t!!!!
