[TI] Happy New Year

[Cosimina Gatto-Fruitman]

Usually at Midnight everyone SHOOTS real gun shots out their windows!

After midnight they eat bbq'ed sausage and pizza.  In the old days 
(according to my mother) the pizza dough was fried not baked as they didn't 
have the pizza ovens.

On New Year's Day, they ate lentils which symbolizes "money".
They swallow (not chew) 12 small grapes for good luck with finances in the 
next year.
