A visit to Grandma's

We spent the day up Fergus Falls to visit Grandma Carlson and as always, this is how we were greeted:

Then Grandma had to give me my annual "lesson" on how to make Krumkake. Of course I know how to make it by now, but the lesson is that "you always listen to your elders", so whatever Grandma says goes. And no, you may not sit down when you are making Krumkake, even if you are pregnant or 86 years old.

I do have to admit that this was a good looking batch of Krumkake though. Perhaps the guidance of an expert helped. I should also give Brian credit because he rolled them.

After Krumkake, we played cards. This is Grandma trying to remember the rules to our favorite game of Spite and Malice. Sounds nice, huh?

When we finished cards Grandma made us Swedish meatballs (or were they Norwegian?) and neither of us had a problem cleaning our plates. Yum.
