    I’m sorry I didn’t read this, Before making my Lefse. I love talking about Lefse, too.
    I mistakenly used a vacuum sealer, the ONE time I froze it….Yikes! Big mistake.
    One article I read, said to freeze it before mailing it, so……Here I go. ?

    Jeni, I just stumbled over your blog and, being all about the Lou my own self, stayed a while. Coffee brewed in an old house with wooden floors? Girl, that is PERFECT. (Bonus if it’s brewed in my mom’s old percolator.)
