Black Eyed Peas and Greens

Luck and Money.

Something we all need a little more of these days...

It's an old Southern tradition to eat black eyed peas and greens on New Years Day.  Up in Hudson, we certainly weren't going to tempt fate.  So that's exactly what we ate. 

G and I took the train up on New Year's Eve.  It was very cold and snowy.  Check out the train:

The eve was pretty low key, but fun.  We were all anticipating Liz and Greg's arrival.

Frozen works, but I wouldn't reccomend canned- it is a special day, you know.

We rounded it out with braised greens and cornbread.

It was delightful.  I feel lucky already.

Here we have G and Greg gesticulating:

A Player and a G:

G's masterpiece:

There you have it.  Stay tuned for a Cassoulet Extravaganza and Baba au Rhum.  It's good stuff ya'll.

Playing,
