New Year's Eve
Welcome to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4 and the eve of 2025.
Growing up New Years Eve was one of my favorite times of the year. Everyone would come to our home for snacks and drinks before heading out to parties. And I do mean nearly everyone we knew. 
All dressed up in formal clothing they would join in the fun.
My father would play ragtime on the piano, our German friends played German music and everyone would dance to it.
My mother made hors d'oeuvres on tiny bread rounds and crackers... bayberry candles burned down for luck. Guy Lombardo was on the TV in the background.
1.What memories of New Years Eve do you have? My memories are listed above in the introduction to this week's questions.
2. Do you go to bed early or stay up until midnight to ring in the new year? I have always stayed up until midnight.
3. Do you have special foods or customs for the New Year? Usually d'oeuvres and tons of them. Hot coffee, tea, soft drinks.... Chips and dips.
4. Will football and New Year parades be on your agenda for New Years Day? No, but my family do like to watch the sci fi Twilight Zone marathon!

I haven't watched the Twilight Zone in years. Hope you enjoy. I'm hoping to stop on the way home and gets us some little treats for tonight and tomorrow. Hoping you have a very blessed 2025!
ReplyDeleteA Twilight Zone marathon sounds nice. We got home a little while ago, and hubby is on a John Wayne movie marathon, smiles. That is his usual New Years Eve. I highly doubt we will stay up until midnight, it's just not the same with Liam gone...that was his and my thing. Wishing you a beautiful Happy New Year, Annie and I am squealing with delight over your latitude/longitude on your header. smiles
ReplyDeleteOh, my hubby likes to watch Twilight Zone every so often, and I often join in. Such interesting shows that make you think! What if??? I hope you have a joyous New Years! See you next year!
ReplyDeleteFun answers. I'm reading answers while I watch a NYE show...happy New Year
