New Year Traditions in America
|
In the U.S., New Year's Day is becoming a time to relax and recover from the previous holidays. Morning hours can include watching the spectacular Rose Bowl Parade on television and later seeing the game.
Americans generally ignore the good-luck shenanigans that are popular in other countries. But a large percentage of us still think we can cook and eat our way to a prosperous new year.
Corned beef and cabbage is one lucky choice because cabbage leaves signify money in this and other cultures. Many people think pork should be included in the New Year's meal. For hundreds of years, the hog has signified prosperity. Black-eyed peas, hog jowls or ham are lucky foods in some areas as is rice.
One activity is becoming a New Year's Day event. You hear bragging about it the day after. Yes! They took down the Christmas tree.
Making New Year's resolutions is an admirable New Year's Day activity. Most of us have given up on making a list because one or two are more than we can handle anyway.
If you haven't seen too much of them over the holidays, it's nice to visit relatives on New Year's Day.
In at least one rural community, men and boys go rabbit hunting while the women and girls make dinner.

| The Power of Reading........ |
|
"With one day's reading a man may have the key in his hands." - Ezra Pound
This next year, if you spent just 10 minutes a day reading about a particular subject - at the end of 2010 you can easily be considered an expert in that field or subject. Have a Happy New Year! |
| How to Gift the Hosts When You Stay |
You may wonder what you could do to show your appreciation when you will be a house guest.
The length and frequency of your visits are factors to be considered. If you visit only once or twice a year, it's nice to bring a gift, though it may not actually be expected. In cases where the hosts bring a gift when staying at your place, you must bring a gift.
When visiting over night or for a weekend, taking the hosts out to breakfast before you leave is a nice touch. Other tips from Charlotte Ford's Guide to Manners for the Modern Age:
Instead of bringing a gift, some people wait until after the visit to send one. Then, they have an idea about what the hosts would like.
If you frequently visit with the same person, but they are unable to travel to your home, taking them to dinner at a restaurant is nice. Or, instead of gifting each time, you could reciprocate with a membership to a wine- fruit- or cheese-of the-month club.
A thank-you note is always appreciated by the hosts, but sending a thank-you note by email is now acceptable. | |
