Norwegian Lefse
I originally posted a recipe for lefse in 2015, but I decided to update my post this year with my great-grandma’s recipe! It’s 100% the best lefse I have ever had. Also, you may notice some older pictures mixed in with the new ones. On one hand, I really wanted some new, pretty pictures of my lefse. but on the other hand, I love the old photos of my brother and I making it together. Enjoy the rare blonde-college-era Sara pics 😉

Coffee & Almond Ice Cream + a Smile Brilliant Giveaway!
The first time I ever remember trying coffee was when I was three years old, and it was in ice cream form. Growing up, my family and I would visit San Diego almost every summer, and on this particular trip, we were staying in Old Town.
