Black-Eyed Peas and Cabbage

Tradition calls for eating black-eyed peas and cabbage on New Year's Day for good luck throughout the rest of the year. I discovered earlier this evening that when you eat them as leftovers on January 2, then head out the door to the Y to work on your new year's resolution, they laugh at you and heckle, 'yeah, good luck.' Not exactly the breakfast of champions . . . ugh.

Yeah, cabbage "heckles" me, too. Sometimes, very unintentional Rickle-ish sounds can be heard, especially while exercising.
