Becky,
Pam and I both retired early, and we are happy to have done so. We love the Villages, but they were out of our price range, one of the consequences of early retirement. That doesn’t stop me from wanting a golf cart. I don’t want to play golf; I want the cart. ?
It’s not the same, but I occasionally break down and buy Lefse on the Internet. Even Amazon sells it.
“Slovak lokše (pronounce lokshe) was a staple when the Elcik boys would visit our Auntie Gertrude in Maine. Like Maine lobsters, it was an excuse to eat butter. That’s all it needed, though, in Norway, they have Lefse. Unlike in Slovakia, they prefer eating them sweet – with sugar, cinnamon, peanut butter, and jam. They also add butter, milk, or cream to their mashed potatoes while we normally don’t. Butter was enough.” – From one of my Facebook posts.
Might your husband like his lokše Norwegian-style?
Bottom line: Yes, you have family in Fort Myers. Bless you!
John, IV
