Haha! - "Keep yer mind off yer neighbor's hotdish"
It took me a while to understand "Der's only one Lena fer every Ole." That's like another language and stuff.
I was looking up Lefse recipes and this is what I found :)
An Ole Scandinavian Lefse Recipe (a little lefse humor)
Yew tak yust ten big potatoes
Den yew boil dem til dar don,
Yew add to dis some sveet cream
And by cups it measures vun.
Den yew steal 'tree ounces of butter
And vit two fingers pench some salt,
Yew beat dis wery lightly
If it ain't gude it is your fault.
Den yew roll dis tin vit flour
An' light brown on stove yew bake,
Now call in all Scandihuvians
Tew try da fine lefse yew make!
