Musing about New Year's food traditions and rcw resolutions.
I remember up North that touching a dollar bill and tasting a pickled
herring at midnight assured we wouldn't be broke or hungry in the new year. Down South we ate hog jowl, rice and black eyed peas for New Year's day lunch to assure good luck. Neither tradition is very appetizing nor as 'lucky' as a good steak with potatoes. I add the obligatory apology to our vegetarian turners. (not those who turn turnips) What's on your table for regional New Year's food traditions? As for rcw resolutions. I resolve to reread an _entire post four times before assuming it's in mean spirit or an insult. I will understand that humor that disrespects another turner is not welcome here. I will realize that I don't know it all about turning wood and in the scale of things, I actually don't know much, but whatever I think I know I will share gladly with anyone. I will really believe that "Manners Maketh Man"....and congenial turners. I hope to keep my resolutions with some degree of grace, but I'll sure need your help in the months to come. Happy New Year from my shop to yours. Turn to Safety, Arch Fortiter http://community.webtv.net/almcc/MacsMusings |
