Life in the Woods

Feb 27, 2012 By

I always love it when we feature someone I feel like I “know”. Today’s featured blogger and I chat on twitter and email and I just adore her too. Let me introduce you to Susan of Wild Life in the Woods. You will adore her too- I guarantee it.

Meet Susan:

After many years of enjoying life in the big city, we moved our family to the Boonies, where you’ll find us living our Wild Life in the Woods. Living with no one but the deer and the turkeys for neighbors can either drive a girl crazy, drive her to blog, or both. I’m a natural born story teller, and I love sharing the things I’m learning about food, too. So stop by the Boonies for a little visit, where you’ll find food, faith, and fun.

Wild Life in the Woods
Here are some goodies Susan picked out just for you:
Slow Cooker tortilla Soup

Faith: Heartbreak

Fun: Vanity Fair

      I admit: I still get excited whenever I see them.
      To my dogs, I call the deer the “big dogs”. We have lots of big windows, and I tell the dogs to “go look at the BIG DOGS outside”.

      They totally believe me.

      We’re sorely lacking in cows in my corner of the boonies.
      They’d need two legs longer than the other two to keep from falling off the ridge.
      And they could only walk around the hill in one direction. If they turned around, they’d roll down.
