good luck foods for new year's day
 |
| In many Asian countries, long noodles are eaten on New Year's Day in order to bring a long life. |
 |
| A common good luck food in the southern United States, black-eyed peas are thought to bring prosperity. |
 |
| In Germany, Ireland, and parts of the United States, cabbage is associated with luck and fortune since it is green and resembles money. |
 |
| Thought to resemble coins, lentils are eaten throughout Italy for good fortune in the New Year. |
 |
| Long associated with abundance and fertility, pomegranates are eaten in Turkey and other Mediterranean countries for luck in the New Year. |
 |
| In North America, Asia, and Europe, people eat fish to celebrate the new year. In some countries, people associate fish with moving forward into the new year since fish swim forward. |

While I’m here today, I wanted to share some of my "Tablescaping Essentials" with you. I have a whole page on the Amazon website with my favorite picks for setting a beautiful table.
Quite often time is of the essence, and I have last minute projects or events to work on, so I turn to Amazon for one or two day delivery. You’d be surprised at how many amazing items they have to offer! And I'm constantly updating this page with my new favorites.
