I've always just done the black eye peas for luck thing - and will be doing it this evening of course. We're also having spinach, a tradition from my partner's family, which I'm thinking is probably - like the collards - for money.
Really looking forward to my wonderfully Southern New Year's Day dinner!!!!!

I talked with another friend of mine in a border state and she said for them, it's cabbage for luck and money. Any of you got any other food traditions?
