RE: Day 800: 5 Minute Freewrite: Sunday - Prompt: Black-eyed peas

in #bust6 years ago

It is the first time I hear about it.
More interesting is that if that custom goes so long back in time how come it is not a custom here in the Netherlands or Europe...

@wakeupkitty I do not know why it is not heard of over there. All I know for sure is I cook black eyed peas every year to be eaten on day 1 of the new year. I do not know if it works or not because I think it does not work but then again maybe it does and if I did not cook them my luck might be worse. why take the chance? LOL

hahaha, maybe try some other country's new year's day good luck food. The japanese serve soba noodles, the greeks make bread. the year I made hoppin john, I tried all three. I don't remember if it was a good year or not

@owasco that sounds like a plan, I make cornbread to go with the black-eyed peas, I wonder if it counts for bread. I have never heard of soba noodles, it has to be good because it is noodles.

@myjob You are never in the mood to eat something else? We eat leftovers from the day before. That is custom.
I wish you good luck!

@wakeupkitty yes we also eat leftovers, sometimes for several days, I always cook more than two people can eat in one night. My crockpot of black-eyed peas is full we will be eating them for many days.

@myjob What do they taste like?
I guess after you ate the whole pot your luck will never come to an end. 💕

@wakeupkitty Have you ever had boiled peanuts? To me, that is what they taste like. Maybe I did not eat enough of them because my luck has been bad, I will write about my day in today's freewrite.

@myjob No I only eat roasted. Can you boil peanuts? I will try that once to find out about the taste.

Luck does not come with the food. Take a rabbit tail and a piece of chocolate and I keep my fingers crossed for you and your boat. 💕
