I haven't had lefse in years -- more than twenty-five years, I would
guess. My grandmother on my dad's side is of German ancestry. She
used to make lefse. I don't remember it being my favorite. I always
remember her most delicious fudge, candies, Pfefferneuse cookies, all
kinds of treats. She made some fudge for a New Years family reunion
of that side of the family a couple of years ago. I was going on and
on about her candy skills, and she and everyone else kept saying, "And
lefse! Remember how we would all eat the lefse!" It was so important
to everyone else. I do remember we would butter and sugar it and roll
it up. My dad is from North Dakota and my mom is from Georgia. My
brother and I were the strange southern kids at the North Dakota get
togethers. Maybe my palate just didn't appreciate lefse at the time.
I should try it again. Next time I see her, maybe she can show me how
it's made.

My uncle also makes ludefisk, but that is another story and everyone
in the family disowns him everytime he brings it around.
