Welcome to Black Bear Cottage! I'm Suzanne Elizabeth Anderson.

At 64, I'm learning to build the rich, abundant life I've dreamed of—not by having more, but by choosing what matters.

Here at Black Bear Cottage, I'm exploring what it means to live well in this next chapter: buying less but better, making room for creativity, cultivating friendships, enjoying my home and garden, living my faith fully, and creating a life of beauty, meaning, and purpose.

I believe a rich life isn't determined by how much money we have. It's built from the things we choose to value, notice, create, and enjoy.
