How to organize recipes with Evernote

This is an updated post from January 2012. I wanted to share it again, because after using Evernote to organize recipes for the last few months, I’ve learned a few new tricks! Plus I think my new friends from the William Morris Project could really benefit from this as well. Back in January, my husband and I started reading David Allen’s book  Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free... read more

kiddy Click n Move Stroller Review

About a year ago, I hosted the Made in Germany giveaway here in NOH. It was a pretty huge event with tons of cool prizes, and one of them was from the German firm, kiddy, which makes the car seat that saved Mack’s life and some really cool strollers. So when the company offered me a stroller while I was visiting their HQ in Hof, I jumped at the chance. We still have Mack’s first stroller, which... read more

Considering a new car again

Those reading NOH for a while know that Stefan’s car was stolen from in front of our house nearly one year ago. About a month later, when he was fed up with the inconvenient train schedules and the longer commute, Stefan started looking for a new car. He really wanted a 7-series to replace the one that was stolen, but there just weren’t any on the market in the price range we wanted. So he... read more

Who is Tiffany?

As you probably know, I’m an American expat living in Germany since 2001. I’m originally from Texas but went to high school in Virginia and U of Miami in Florida (the latter of which is where I met my husband). I started blogging back in 2006, when I was looking for a way to keep all of our family and friends around the world up to date about our newest addition to the family…a... read more

Decluttering Progress in 2011

We have had a lot going on here in the last year or so, and I haven’t been able to devote all the time I’d like to this project, but we have started decluttering a few spaces around here. There is just so much stuff that we have collected over the last 10 years, things that we already in the house and things that just found their way to us. But 2012 we are going to do our best to target one... read more

NOH Year in Review

Now that 2011 is officially buried, I figured it was time to take a look at all that went down here on NOH in the past year — and I have to say it was a really incredible time. I have been so blessed by all of the great readers and appreciate each and every new “face” that comes through the “door”. Without all of you, NOH would not be worth anything. So I thank you for reading... read more

Simplify cleaning with a personalized schedule

With the start of the new year, you’re probably thinking of a few things you’d like to accomplish in 2012 and new habits you’d like to form. I’ve heard that creating a new habit takes about 3o days of constantly doing that task before it will stick. But the first 10 days are the absolute hardest part of the equation, and you will often let yourself fail during that time frame before... read more

{Garden Life} Roasting Pumpkin Seeds

Garden Life is a day early this week for several reasons. One is that it’s Thanksgiving and two is that Mackenzie is turning 3 tomorrow. So my Friday is going to be SUPER busy as I prepare for our turkey dinner on Saturday and celebrate a bit with our little girl. Hence the change. Next week, it will be back to the regularly scheduled programming.  Earlier today, I shared how to make your very own... read more

10 Things I’m Thankful For In 2011

Since Thanksgiving is rapidly approaching (and I’m going to be running around like the Tazmanian Devil for a few days), I thought I should take a few calm moments to write about the things I’m thankful for in my life. Most of these are things that I’m blessed to experience and think almost every day — but we sometimes take things for granted when we get all caught up in the... read more

10 Things To Do Before 2012

I can hardly believe that 2011 is quickly drawing to an end. In just 47 days, we’ll be celebrating the arrival of 2012 and thinking about all the greatness that is to come in the new year. But for now, the rest of our 2011 is jam packed with activity! Finish eating the delicious Dunkin Donuts that my husband brought with him from Berlin. There is nothing healthy or even remotely low carb about... read more
