Today's favorite is a healthy snack choice I recently discovered called Edamame!  Yes, Edamame!  What is Edamame you ask?  Well, they are basically boiled green soybeans that taste delicious and pack a punch of all healthy goodness!  Enjoy!

Some interesting New Year's fun facts...
  • Auld Lang Syne is sung at midnight to toast in the New Year. The song was composed by Robert Burns sometimes in the 1700's. The term means "old long ago" or "the good old days."
  • The first ball lowering in Times Square was on December 31, 1907 and its stats were the following:  700 pounds; 5 feet in diameter.
  • The modern ball that is dropped is made from Waterford Crystal and weights over 1,000 pounds. There are over 9,000 LED lights, but uses hardly any energy. The ball begins to drop at 11:59 and completes the journey exactly at midnight to ring in the New Year.
  • The ball was not lowered in 1942 and 1943 due to wartime restrictions.
  • On New Year's Eve, about 75% of American Parties are with 20 people or less.
