Don't forget your New Year's dinner. 

Black eyed peas, turnip greens, and hog jowl. 

A lot of people substitute cabbage for turnip greens and that's fine.  Green and leafy for money, peas of any assortment for coins, and hog jowl (eating high on the hog). We use fat back.  Some substitute bacon and I figure that's fine but it's eating mighty low on the hog.  Although with the price of bacon these days if you can afford it on New Year's I suspect that's a sign of prosperity!  Lol! 

Happy New Year from the Gray Family!
