Mine is the yuuuuge pretzel with icing and sprinkles. It’s s’posed to be good luck if you eat a chunk of it after midnight.

Celebrating my dog’s birthday. He was a rescue so I don’t know what day it actually is.

I get to celebrate by closing at work on one of the most busy nights of the year. Yay for working in a restaurant.

One thing that my mom did every new year’s when I was a kid was a reuben pizza. I forget why that was even a tradition, but it was a delicious tradition.

Hand-made crust, with some rye bread mix mixed into pizza crust mix, thousand island as the sauce, swiss cheese, corned beef, and sauerkraut as the toppings.

Nowadays I just go to visit some friends in New Hampshire for a TDI get together, even though I don’t even have a TDI any more.

Collard greens and blackeyed peas. Allegedly for good luck but mostly because delicious.

We never made a big deal of New Years growing up so it doesn’t really register as something important to me. But since I’ve been married our tradition is to go to some place/party that dissapoints my wife and she’s the planner.

My tradition is going to bed at 10 because I have to work at 6am the following morning.

Wasn’t Pittsburgh settled by the Dutch?

I think it was the Pennsylvania Dutch, who were actually German.
