We always have a pork roast in sauerkraut. She also throws in some Kielbasi and hot dogs in with it. Then she tops it with Bisquick dumplings. We also have mashed potatoes on the side. It just don't get much better. Dale

For dinner we usually have whatever there is here for me to cook, not usually anything special, but for the last 5 years we have had the same desert. Birthday cake and ice cream for Evan's birthday.

Heavy C · « **Reply #12 on:** December 31, 2008, 03:26:57 AM »

Baked ham, blackeyed peas, and garlic mashed potatoes. Throw in a green bean casserole and some corn bread muffins for good measure. Top it off with pecan pie.

Tomorrow needs to hurry up and get here!

New Years is just another day. Fact of the matter is i'm gonna start the new year off right and go to work. I'll have a packed lunch hmmmm? Egg salad and potato chips.

CannonKrazy · « **Reply #15 on:** December 31, 2008, 09:31:56 AM »

After reading everyones post I think it would be wise to add a couple of things to each of our dinners.

A bottle of Gas Be Gone and a pack of Rolaids. If the family gets bored you can always play a game of pull my finger after dinner.

He was born at 2:18am January 1st 2003! He was due the week before Christmas, but I guess he wanted to wait til the new year. And yeah it is pretty cool. He was the first baby born at the hospital that year and we got all kinds of neat stuff including a $500 Wal-Mart gift card.

We have a 50-50 mix of pintos and great northern beans in the slow cooker where they'll cook all night and until we eat tomorrow. They were put in to soak early this morning. We'll have baked ham and rolls to go with it. That's become out tradition here for a buncha years now.

Blackeyed peas and cornbread. Wouldn't be New Year's without them. Baked ham and mashed potatoes will show up too.

I've never seen collard greens. If they resemble spinach in any way I'm glad I haven't.

magooch · « **Reply #28 on:** January 01, 2009, 03:32:30 AM »

No traditions observed here. We're going to have my wife's home made clam chowder and salad. Normally we'd be in Laughlin, Nevada at one of the buffets, but this year we're home.

Hairtrigger · « **Reply #29 on:** January 01, 2009, 03:35:34 AM »

are Northern beans the same as Navy beans?
