Why Are Black Eyed Peas Good Luck?
The practice of eating black-eyed peas for luck is generally believed to date back to the Civil War. Originally they were used as food for livestock and later as a food staple for enslaved people in the South. Because of their lowly reputation, the Union Army troops of General Sherman ignored the fields of black-eyed peas while razing or stealing other crops. During the harsh winter, the Confederate soldiers survived on the remaining black-eyed peas, promoting this humble and nourishing legume into a symbol of fortune and prosperity in the American South.

This is the first year that I can remember not fixing a big pot of black eye peas and hog jowls and another of collard greens. I won my wife's heart with those items one New Year's Day 41 years ago. I just didn't feel the fortune and prosperity after 2020.
Wait'll next year.:yay:
4 yrs. is very optimistic, 8 yrs. is just out of touch!
You think Chiden's ability to speak will even last 4 years?
