DH's German family always said.........Never enter the new year with a dirty house and always eat pork, saurkraut, and herring, for health, wealth and happiness. We have been doing this for 32 years.

Had a "dirty" house but since I've been sick most of the month AND I'm the only one living here, I think the good luck spirits will forgive me. :P

Think I will have pork chops for lunch with some black eye peas, but no collard greens (yuck!).

Pork and sauerkraut and burn bayberry candles.
