Paula's menu sounds like what I always have. Have had it most of my 73 years and continue to do, as do my daughters. Only difference is that I'm not crazy about collards and substitute turnips. Still yummmm.

My mother and father always said to have pork and saurkraut for News Years dinner for a good year. It seems it always worked for them. So I have been doing it for 43years now. My children do the same.

I love reading about your family and seeing your pictures. I respect the fact that you are teaching your son's family values because so much of that seems to be going by the wayside anymore..maybe someday we will meet and by that time your son's may even have their own cooking show.lol..wishing you lots and lots of love from this country girl's kitchen to Brooke Deen's kitchen of love.
