Filipino new year’s tradition 🍍
Every New Year’s Eve Filipinos would usually purchase 12 round fruits to welcome in the new year displayed in large baskets/bowls.
Each of the fruits represented the 12 months, helping bring in prosperity, happiness, and luck for the upcoming year.
Technically our bowl is incomplete since my mom wanted the 12th fruit to be a watermelon (our fam’s favourite). There was a shortage in our city so we’ll check back again for any restocks before midnight today lol.
