Wrena,
You make Lefse!?!? I have been wanting to do it this year and haven't! Glad you got to do it. It's always fun when my aunts and cousins and I get together and have an afternoon making it. Thanks for sharing the recipes. Maybe some other Norwegian descendants out there that would like to have it. And enjoy a bite for me! ;) Alison
