celebrate the New Year?

On New Year's Eve in Austria, it is usual to eat
"Raclette" with family or friends. Different
kinds of meat cut in small cubes, different
veggies cut in slices would go on top of the
raclette plate. In the small bowls below
Austrians put potatoes, bacon and cheese. All
of this is eaten with several different home-
made sauces, which are usually brought by
the guests.

Blue underwear. You read it properly!
Portuguese people believe that wearing new
blue underwear as well as eating 12 raisins
will bring you luck for the upcoming year.
Nobody is quite sure where this superstition
comes from, perhaps the underwear should
be as new as the upcoming year. However, if
you happen to celebrate New Year’s Eve in
Portugal, make sure to buy your blue
undergarments as soon as possible! Stores
may run out of it!
