HISPANIC NEW YEAR TRADITIONS

12 Grapes

Want good luck in the new year? Do like lots of Latinos do and pop one grape for every month of the year at the stroke of midnight. Some people make a wish with each grape they gobble.

Yellow Underwear

The trick to getting what you want in the new year is to wear the right color underwear, according to some. If you want peace, wear white. If you what money and good fortune, wear yellow.

Lentils

Eat lentils on the last day of the year or right at the beginning of the new year in order to bring on financial abundance. If you don’t feel like eating lentils or forgot to cook some in time, you can put a handful in your purse..

Walk with a suitcase

Want to travel?  Pack your suitcase and take a walk around the block with it at midnight.
