Family Gathering

Family reunion is the annual celebration that we always attend. This family gathering is usually held in Texarkana, Texas. All Simmon’s family from the old to new generations are normally attend this family event. Each family bring their each specialties to let the rest of the family taste their creation. If the majority of the family likes the taste then, his/her recipe will be included to the Simmons’s cook book. In fact, the first time I attend this event, I received one cook book from the family’s recipe. This food originated from the first generation up to the second generation. The reason why they keep this recipe alive is to acknowledge the original person who have started to write her own recipe. Her family and passion of cooking motivates her to create her own recipe. I would say that her effort is paid for because until today she will be remember by the new generation. Using this recipe will be the perfect ingredients to satisfied my family and the family of my own children. There is no question why family Simmons are very closed to each other, family reunion is the key to introduced the new member and say goodbye to those who died.
