Therese:
hates black cats
never walks under a ladder
is very careful with mirrors
never puts shoes on the table
knows that when silverwear falls on the floor, company's coming
always puts silver out on New Year's Eve
always cuts her hair on Good Friday to prevent headaches in the coming year
knows that changing a horse's name brings bad luck
carries an acorn with her at all times to bring luck and ensure a long life
