Any New Year’s traditions you follow? I am trying to figure out the right timing and quantity for getting and giving everyone 12 grapes at midnight. Then I started realizing, all the NYE ads are always “fireworks and champagne,” but never “someone running up and down the street with a new suitcase so they get to travel next year,” or “entire family coming together to get The Special Soup right.”

I’ve only recently heard about the 12 grapes tradition. Another I’ve recently heard about is eating black eyed peas as well, which almost feels like cultural appropriation lol.

My husband actually spearheaded the New Year's Eve tradition with always getting sauerkraut, personally I didn’t grow up with anything traditional so it has been nice to have something. Now that I think about it NYE ads are rather stagnant in that respect.

That’s a new one. I love eating sauerkraut so I guess I’ll add that to the excuses to keep it stocked up at home.

Boutique I have been eyeing has billable hour requirement of 1500-1600 and comes with a 20-25% paycut. Is this a stupid idea and should I grind it out until I can move in house? Will this ruin my opportunities down the road?
