Hello
blogland, how is everyone this fine Monday morning?
I
am shaking all over inside and out from head to foot as per usual.
Anyway
since tomorrow is the 31st I will share some facts about
New Year's Eve.
New
Year celebrations happened as early as 2000BC
Early
Romans used the 1st March as the New Year.
January
is named after Janus, the God with two faces, one looking forward and
the other looking backwards.
Ancient
Persians gave New Year's gifts of eggs, which symbolised
productiveness
The
words auld lang syne mean "times gone by".
The
first ball dropping celebration atop One Times Square was held on
December 31, 1907.
The only one I knew was re: Janus. Thanks, as always, for the interesting facts!
