Happy New Year!
A tradition my grandmother taught me was to make a spinach pie on January 1. Hiding (boiled) coins and a cross inside the filling, when the top crust is on, it becomes a game to pick a piece with a coin or cross for good luck and health in the new year.
The first guest in the home gets a dollar coin.
I had a great aunt who used to make a lot of visits to relatives on Jan 1 for that coin.
