Traditional Southern New Year's Day Meal

We will be out celebrating Nicole's birthday tonight, so we prepared our traditional Southern New Year's Day Meal for lunch today.

Country Ham (or any pork) symbolizes forward progress. Collard Greens symbolize money, and black eye peas symbolize luck.

2015 was a bit of a mixed-bag. We had many great times, but also some significant lows, too.

Here's to a healthy and prosperous 2016!!
