A Time-Honored New Year’s Tradition

For all of my life, I cannot recall a single New Year’s Day where I did not eat Black-Eyed peas, greens and cornbread.  This is a tradition that my sweet Mama kept year after year and passed on to me.

The significance is this:  On New Year’s Day, eating Black-Eyed Peas is to bring prosperity and eating greens brings wealth.  Though I have not won the lottery of money, I do feel wealthy, and looking into my children’s eyes, I have proven prosperous.  Though it’s a far cry to give food all the credit for wealth and prosperity, this is a time-honored tradition of goals; hope; promise.

So in keeping with this time-honored tradition, my DIY Dutchess video shows you exactly how to make Black-Eyed Peas, and I share my delicious recipe that you will want to make more often than just New Year’s Day.

Join me and watch my how-to video, and eat those Black-Eyed Peas and greens!  Because really, why not?!!  What do you have to lose?!!
