No traditions meal wise implemented for this new year, we use to do the black eye'ds but not this year. But like yourself much or most of our meals came from the backyard or greenhouse.Every year we have hog jowl and purple hull peas( I know it's supposed to be black eyed peas) but they are dry tasting to me.
On our menu today is home grown corn on the cobb, purple hull peas, fried okra, fresh bell pepper, fresh carrots, home cured hog jowl and deviled eggs from our own chickens. Everything on my plate is what I have produced.
