SUMMERTIME MEANS FAMILY reunions, right? My husband’s five siblings (and as many mewling teens as we can muster) will be heading out to Arizona this year to cook barbecue and bond. I can’t wait. Honestly. His family, from El Paso, Texas, has been doing this since time immemorial, probably just as yours has -- with the same results. (You supply the next sentence. I’m humming while you think of your last family reunion.) As an only child, I have a blast, because nobody is trying to dredge up the stupidest thing I did at age 10. Plus, I’ve gotten to loll on the beaches of Texas’s South Padre Island, tube down the Comal River in Central Texas, and ride the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad’s steam-driven train through the Rockies. The barbecue hasn’t been bad either.
