@brunchwithbabs: What are your NYE traditions?! Happy New Year! In the spirit of the holiday and starting anew, I thought I would share some fun traditions from around the world. What will you be doing this New Year’s Eve? 🍇In Spain, they eat exactly 12 grapes at each strike of midnight for good luck. Each grape represents one month of 2024. In some cultures they think you eat the grapes under the table at the stroke of midnight for the best luck. 🚪In Ireland, they open the windows and doors. The Irish tradition says you leave the windows and doors open so you can let the old year out and the new one in. ❤️In Italian culture, the color red is associated with fertility, so people wear red undergarments under their clothes in the hopes that it will help them conceive in the coming year. 🥣In Denmark, the tradition is to throw china at your friend’s and neighbor’s front doors on New Year's Eve. It is said that the bigger your pile of broken dishes, the more luck you will have in the upcoming year. 🧂In Turkey, it's considered good luck to sprinkle salt on your doorstep as soon as the clock strikes midnight on New Year's Eve. This is said to promote both peace and prosperity throughout the new year. #newyearseve #tradition

in my family, I go outside at 23:58 to take the old year out with me, then at midnight, I walk back in the front door to bring in the new year with me

Also in Ireland (probably elsewhere too) just before midnight lift your left foot so you always start the new year on the right foot 🥰

My dad and I race to call one another and bang a pot with a wooden spoon! 😂 He does it on his back deck, much to the chagrin of his neighbors I imagine.
