ORIGINAL: calamitysandra Pros' Neujohr, Kopp voll Hoor, Muhl vull Zäng un e Bretzel en dä Häng This is a toast for New Years eve in Kölsch, a German dialect. It means: Happy New Year, head full of hair, mouth full of teeth, and a pretzel in the hands. The pretzel referenced is not the Bavarian style one known in the US, but one made from sweet yeast dough, usually huge, traditionally made to share on New Years day. well, given the soft pretzel I ate yesterday...I've got 2 out of 3. No too bad!
