New Year's Day tradition of sorts in Denmark is throwing bowls stack up to the doors of neighboring houses. If it is another story still has it. I wonder then, that for the Danish People loved to come home to a bowl himself. And at the end of the day Home is a pile of broken crockery mound home Most homes are considered to be most fortunate. It means that people have friends and loved ones home is better than anyone else. That addition Dane also has a tradition of jumping into the chair at midnight of New Year's Day as well. Believed to repel evil spirits away.
