They were supposed to bring you health and prosperity in the coming year. <br /><br />I like cabbage, but my husband and daughter have never liked it. I made some stirfry recently with red cabbage and couldn't stop eating it, it was so good! They don't know what they are missing! (Come to think of it, they don't like blackeyed peas, either!) There is just no accounting for taste!A Colorful Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06890388727784255219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3635163323560816578.post-83797623568126084532012-01-03T09:55:31.459-05:002012-01-03T09:55:31.459-05:00I'm not a cabbage fan, but I love traditions. ...I'm not a cabbage fan, but I love traditions.

We never did that in our house, though, figuring that everyone sort of makes their own luck (or lack of it). We started having black-eyed peas as long as I lived at home and grew them.Gorges Smythehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08777621500611603786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3635163323560816578.post-60337329715196752462012-01-01T23:01:29.762-05:002012-01-01T23:01:29.762-05:00Yesterday I made a big pot of vegetable soup with ...Yesterday I made a big pot of vegetable soup with lots of cabbage in it.
