Happy New Year!
Both My parents were from the south(Tenn&Ark)So I had Black eye peas & Greens as a kid. Don't do it now.
But yesterday we visted our Mom at her Adult family home and the owners are Filipino. they were putting out all types of round things, apples,oranges,Cheeto puffs,candys,all in sets of 12's,and a cluster of 12 grapes on the front door All for good luck in the coming year!
They are the very best of people they took care of my Mom until her passing in 2003 and now my inlaw.
