On New Years Eve and Day, we eat pork to "root forward" into the new year - usually a pork butt roast and hot dogs with sauerkraut. We also put our change jars outside on the porch overnight to bring money into the house in the new year.
I think these traditions are specifically Pennsylvania Dutch.
I've never heard about anything like that before, sounds nice though!
