During my childhood years in Texas, my mother and both grandmothers were always on a mission to make everyone eat black-eyed peas and some green vegetables, usually turnip greens, every New Year's Day. This food combination was supposed to ensure our luck for the new year ahead. Whether we liked the peas and greens or not, we pretended we did. We didn't want to risk a year of misfortune just because we didn't eat our veggies. Some of the braver members of my family would throw in some jalapenos to add a spicy kick to turbocharge them into the new year. Naturally, a sizable skillet of cornbread that could feed an army accompanied the peas and greens culinary masterpiece. Yee haw!
