If you are planning to give someone a good old fashion “Pounding”. (And no this does not mean beating someone to a pulp). Someone you know has just moved into a new home and you want to give them a party, to show off their place. It’s called a “Pounding” because people use to bring a pound of something to help fill the kitchen pantry. Well, here are some traditional housewarming gift ideas to add to your ten cent crazy book.
Bread so you'll never go hungry and your pantry will always be full
Salt for flavor and spice, it represents life’s tears and mends all wounds and a pinch put at the threshold of each door and window will bring good luck
Wine so you'll never be thirsty and always have happiness and joy
Sugar so your life shall always have sweetness
Flour to bring fullness and enrichment
A Broom to sweep away the evil and to always keep your house clean
A Candle so you will always have light
Butter to bring you wealth
Coffee to wake you up each morning
A Coin to bring you good fortune
Honey to bring you a sweet life
A Knife to protect against intruders
A Penny to keep friends from ever being at the end of the knife
Rice for fertility
Peanut Butter to keep you out of sticky situations
Nails to keep you strong
Olive Oil to give you health, light and to keep your husband faithful
Toilet Paper so that all problems with the new home will easily roll away and be solved
A piece of wood so that your life and home will always have stability, harmony and peace
Bless this house as we come and go
Bless this house as the children grow
Bless our families when they gather in
Bless this house with love and friends.
May the roof above us never fall in.
And may the friends gathered below it never fall out
