“The Odd Years” Kussee Family Reunion July 2013
Inter-mountain Power Plant 10 miles north of Delta, Utah
Bringing out the inner chef while getting to know the family better. We will have about 14 families.
A representative of each family will prepare and clean up each meal. (Randomly selected at the reunion). For example one child from each of the families will get together and prepare, serve and clean up. This means they are in charge and can ask assistance from their spouse or other people from their family. This will be a fun opportunity for everyone to get reacquainted.
The meals will be kind of....Pot luck with a theme, be creative and bring your families favorites to share. The group that will be preparing the food will make the main part of the meal together and then the condiments, toppings or other things that will make the meal crazy good.
Eating utensils, plates, cups and napkins will be provided. I will bring ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise and salad dressing.. Bring other condiments that you would like.
Friday evening 5th July.......6 pm BBQ
Bring enough meat of your choice for your family (buns if needed)
● Steaks
● Dogs
● Fish
● Hamburger
● and etc
Toppings.....here is a good place to go crazy(ie for hamburger–ding dang hot sauce or what ever your heart desired). I will bring tomatoes, lettuce, dill pickles and onions.
Side dish to share.................Can be an intensely insane dish that might be hard to pronounce but easy to eat.
Enough chips of your choice to feed your family and be shared .
Dessert.......Ice Cream Floats “zippy ones” be imaginative, enough ice cream and your favorite sodas to float your boats. If everyone brings enough for their family then we can all have a large variety to choose from. Just put the ice cream in a paper bag rolled down tight and in a cooler to get it to the reunion. There are two huge freezers on the reunion site.

EVERY FAMILY PLEASE BRING 1 DOZEN EGGS — THIS SHOULD COVER THE FRENCH TOAST AND SCRAMBLED EGGS.
Remember - there are no beds... We will be sleeping on the floor (unless you bring an air mattress or cot). The main area (one big room) has carpet. There are several smaller rooms (basketball courts, racket ball courts, etc) if you want some privacy - but these rooms are not carpeted. There is lots of grass outside if you would like to camp, and parking hookups for RV’s. Remember Delta can be hot in July, but the building is air conditioned..
For toddlers - we might build a corral of tables - to give them lots of room to play.
See ya’ll ya’ll there. Love you guys, Grandma xoxoxo
