No, I haven't forgotten to blog about Christmas, but since it's already New Year's Eve, I thought I'd share a New Year's Spanish custom.
The Spanish ritual on New Year's Eve is referred to as “las doce uvas de la buena suerte,“ meaning "the 12 grapes of good luck". Spaniards eat twelve grapes during the twelves gongs at midnight (one grape per gong, of course). The tradition is meant to secure twelve happy months in the coming year. I gotta go count my grapes and make sure I have enough for our family tonight.
¡Salud! (Cheers!)
