It's a Lefse and Belgium Cookie Festival..

After enjoying Kumla Day, Randy and Janel opened up their home for more family traditions.

My brother, Spencer, has perfected lefse making, so he did some of the mixing. We used around 70 pounds of potatoes, a lot of butter and flour.

Karen rolled a lot of balls,

We all rolled them out,

and rolled
and rolled,
and rolled,
and then we flipped,
and flipped,

and flipped,
and rolled and flipped,
and then folded.
My mom and Glenn worked on Belgium cookies.
They also rolled, and pressed,
for a finished product that Glenn doesn't even like because he thinks they taste like fortune cookies. I never thought of it before but now that is all I taste when I eat them.
Some people were sneaking cookies before they were suppose to.

Then the massive clean up.
So we could all enjoy the finished product together.
Lefse

and Belgium Cookies.
I love the tradition of making lefse and Beligim Cookies, and I love that my children will someday have these memories, however it is being with family that makes it a tradition that I treasure.
My Auntie Karen. I love her even though she put flour on my shoulder!
