Oh Man! I wanna be South American and do this on New Years Eve!!!
From Carolyn Hax's weekly live chat:
New Year's Eve Tradition: In my family (we are from South America) on New Year's Eve, we eat 12 grapes for good luck, and pack a suitcase and walk it around the block at midnight. I live in a gardenstyle condo and my family all comes over. We eat and get a little drunk (no matter -- they spend the night or walk home -- they only live two blocks away), and then do the midnight walk with our suitcases. I know my neighbors think we're weird, but who cares?
Carolyn Hax: If they don't think you're weird, though, you probably should care.
