Little House in the Northwoods

Our little home on the interwebs chronicling our

SIMPLE LIFE DEFINED

There is a Finnish proverb that says, "Onnellisuus on se paikka puuttuvaisuuden ja yltäkylläisyyden välillä," which means "Happiness is a place between too little and too much".

What this looks like for us:

  • Working towards growing our own produce.
  • Learning to prepare foods we purchase according to "the traditional methods"
