With her and Trisha rolling the lefse at lightning speeds and the talented flippers (Auntie Judy, April, and myself) working the griddles &#8211; the time flew by and 20 pounds of potatoes were transformed into 120 pieces of lefse!<\/p>\n<p>It was just fun to spend time with family, to listen to stories and laugh, and to wrap the evening up with a VFW burger.
