New Years Eve at our house includes a family tradition handed down from the Johnson side of the family. My mom would make Spaghetti sauce on New Years Eve in the crockpot for New Years Day dinner. Late at night my Dad would eat a sausage or two, kind of a New Years Eve bedtime snack - which turned into the whole family having some. It's a tradition I've held on to. We eat sausage and French bread as our midnight snack to give us the energy to bang our pots and pans on the front porch. I'm sure our neighbors just love us.
