Lefse Making

Every year for the past maybe 3 years or so we have been making massive amounts of homemade lefse just before the holidays together as a family.

Aunts, uncles, cousins, siblings, everyone.

It is amazing to think that at one time just my grandparents made the lefse. Just the two of them. It must have taken all day.

With all of us working it still takes 2-3 hours and thats not including the preparation that happens the night before.

We all take turns doing the different tasks, rolling the balls, flattening them and flipping the lefse on the super hot burner.

Good job Erik and Dwight!

Most of the gang.

We had kids around this year so they had to be entertained by someone...

Who better than Brian! Well actually he entertained them during the cleanup. He and his family could only make it for dinner. Linnea slept through most of lefse making so she didnt need to be entertained. Jake was happy in his exersaucer and Dylan did a great job of entertaining himself and playing with grandpa and uncle Chris. It was a great day and I can't wait to eat more lefse on Thanksgiving!
