Hi friends! I've had a few hiccups in my life this month, but I'm back- with tons on my mind. Most urgently, I'd like to discuss Brussels sprouts.
After the Wedding: How the Gloves Split Their Finances
Well, hello again, hive! In my last 'after the wedding' post, I explained that McGlovin and I are most effective when we work independently towards a shared goal. Once we are clear on our objectives, there's no need for either of us to micromanage because we're pretty clear on the division of responsibilities and we have absolute faith that we're both doing our part. This style has worked for us when we were planning our wedding, when we arrange vacations, when we embark on home renovations and when we handle our finances. Yep- we know it's uncommon, but McGlovin and I still have separate finances and no plans to combine them anytime soon!
So here's some back-story: when McGlovin and I started dating, we immediately fell into a pattern of alternating who paid for dinner or movie tickets or things. When we moved in together we continued to split things somewhat evenly- I think he paid for our rent, and I paid for insurance, utilities and groceries. We bought a house, and now he pays the mortgage and insurance, and I continue to pay for utilities, our car insurance, groceries, etc. There's just never been a real reason to combine finances, and keeping them separate seems to work for us.
When people learn about this arrangement they usually have tons of questions- I'll try to answer some of those now!
Q: So, wait, your money stays totally separate? A: Yes. My paycheck goes into my bank account, his goes in to his. We each have health insurance taken out (somehow, it's cheaper for each of us to have our own insurance) and we each have money put into retirement accounts. I don't have access to his bank accounts and he doesn't have access to mine. We could, but…why? We check in pretty regularly about whats in each of ours.
Q: How do you control discretionary spending, then? A: Well- we each spend whatever we want on whatever we want to buy. We don't have a rule about telling each other when we're buying things, but we would never hide it or judge…he knows that I spent some dollars on a bag a few months ago, and I recently learned about how expensive chain saws are…it's crazy! And we usually talk about bigger things, like computers or other big ticket items. But we each use our own money, and stay on track with our financial assignments, so we're good.
Q: Ok, so you each spend all of your money? A: No. Although all of our money is separate, we do tons of planning for our dollars. McGlovin is responsible for savings, and we check in regularly with that. We are saving for the long term, but also for shorter term items like vacation and a kitchen renovation. As for me…I'm responsible for paying my debt. I went to a private Catholic school for undergrad, and graduated with a serious amount of student loans, so a huge amount of my money goes to paying back those loans. Any money in our checking accounts after paying what we're supposed to is ours, though.
Q: How does everything balance out? A: surprisingly well. McGlovin makes more money than I do, so he's responsible for paying for more things (I count our mortgage and savings as paying for things, in addition to paying for date nights and vacation spending and things). He also tends to spend a tiny bit more money than I do, because he has it; for example, he has a higher car payment, because he was okay with budgeting that. I bought a less expensive car, because I'd rather spend my money on things that aren't car payments. So we're each pretty happy with our standard of living.
Q: That's all well and good for right now, but what are you going to do when you have kids? A: I have no idea how that will affect us. To be honest, I imagine that we continue to each pay for some things- he'll be the one taking them to the doctor, due to his schedule, so he'll probably pay for that and likely childcare. I'm the one with a Prime membership, so I bet that I pay for diapers and things that need to be shopped for, like clothes.
Q: I still don't understand why your finances are separate, since you are open about your spending and seem to be on the same page. Wouldn't it be easier to just put everything together? A: Ok, here's the thing: I bank with USAA. I love their customer service, their fee free ATM situation, and the fact that I never need to go to a bank for anything. McGlovin loves his local bank- he likes the people that work there, he likes to go in for his transactions, and he likes knowing that he has a local contact for any financial need. Neither of us wants to switch to the other, so we keep our banking separate. Yep- we're a married couple with separate finances due to our irrational banking preferences.Our financial planner has approved this
So that's what we do. Neither of us has direct access to the other person's money, but we still consider all of the money in our relationship "one pot"- it just lives in difference places. If we ever needed to reallocate dollars from one account to the other it would absolutely not be an issue. Mostly, though, we just regulate our allocation by adjusting who pays for what. We know it's not a conventional way for couples to handle things, but our separate finances has been working for us so far!
Tell me, hive- do any of you maintain separate finances, or plan to after marriage? Is there a specific reason why, or why not?
October Subscription Box Reviews: Birchbox, Ipsy and Sample Society
**due to a glitch in scheduled post, I think this is coming out a day late. Sorry for the double post, but I hope you enjoy my subscription box review for October!
Monthly delivery for $10/month
Includes 4-5 beauty and lifestyle samples
This month my box included Balance Me Wonder Eye Cream, dr. Brandt Clean up Mask, Harvey Prince Petaly Noir, Coastal Scents Eye shadow Palette and Essential Elements Wake Up Rosemary Shower Gel. Overall, I'm on the fence about this box- I wish Birchbox would stop, already, with the Harvey Prince perfume samples, and I don't really know how much more eye cream I can actually use. I'm interested in the eyeshadow palette, because I don't usually buy or use eyeshadow- this will be fun to experiment with! And I always love skin care/mask samples and can always use more yummy smelling shower gel. So, this box is kind of neutral for me….but I'm sure I'll love one of the products before I get the next box. Which reminds me- last month's Liz Earle cleanser sample was ah-mazing. So good- I love it.
Monthly delivery for $10/month
Includes 4-5 full sized or deluxe sample products, plus a makeup bag
This month my box included Albertini Warm Love Pumpkin Exfoliating Staff, Figs & Rouge Hand Cream, Indie Lee Brightening Cleanser, Skone Cosmetics TATTOOED Eyeliner, Starlooks Lip Gloss, and the quilted cosmetics bag pictured here. Similar to Birchbox, Ipsy is a kind of 'meh' for me this month. I absolutely loved the warming/exfoliating cleanser- it's pumpkin scented and also works really well! The cleanser, on the other hand, didn't work so well for me- it was just a weird gel that sat on top of my skin, and didn't clean it at all. I also don't care for the lotion- it's pretty thin and not terribly moisturizing, with a strong scent. I don't use eyeliner frequently, but it's nice to have when you need it, but the lipgloss color was a bit too 'grandma' for me…so, overall, this box was kind of a dud. Sorry!
Monthly Delivery for $15/month
Includes 4-5 Full sized and deluxe beauty and makeup samples
This month I received a Bond No. 9 Bon Bon perfume sample, Estee Lauder Enlighten Dark Spot Correcting Night Serum, L'Oreal Paris Total Repair Extreme Shampoo and Conditioner, Emi-Jay Hair Ties, Bobbi Brown Mascara Sample. Now, I'd say that I am actually very satisfied with this box, but many others were upset- the Estee Lauder sample was originally billed as a larger size; the shampoo and conditioner samples are drug store samples, and this box is supposed to showcase higher end samples; the hair ties and perfume are kind of low grade samples. Well…I actually love everything in this box. I'm so happy to be able to sample an expensive night cream (sure, I would have loved a larger sample), I never mind shampoo and conditioner (so long as they are not foils!), the hair ties are already in my purse because I'm always searching for one, the perfume actually smells lovely, and I love the mascara sample. Yes, the Bobbi Brown is the only real high-end sample, but I'm so happy to see it there! It's great, and I love a mascara sample. So, overall- I still love the Sample Society Box. I don't have a lot of confidence in next month's box, based solely on the spoiler, but I'll hold off judgment until I get it
Friday Five: Friday Pie Day
Friends! It is Friday, and I'm thinking about pie.
One of my Autumn Goals was to increase my friendship time, so in a fit of seasonal enthusiasm, I decided to host a Friendsgiving Dinner. And then I invited thirty-ish people, most of whom accepted. So I'm hosting a dinner for 30 at my house in three weeks!
I'm actually really excited- Evan and I used to host 'family dinner' events pretty regularly where we would invite tons of people over for dinner. It's a logistical challenge, for sure, but I know that we're up for it. Also also…I love that Thanksgiving provides such an obvious theme. I'm still brainstorming menu options, but dessert has been on my mind all week. In the spirit of keeping things a bit streamlined (necessary when feeding thirty people) I decided to do a pie bar (which clearly brings back tons of delicious memories of our wedding pie bar). So todays Friday Five is my pie brainstorming:
- Apple pie. Boring, maybe, but I prefer to think of it as classic. Apple pies are my go-to dessert, the first pie that I learned to make, and the pie that I prepared for our wedding. Also, never tell my mom, but my dad secretly prefers mine to all others. So for me, apple pie is absolutely a must for any pie selection.
- Pecan pie. Now, I'd never made pecan pie until last year, when one of Evan's cousins texted and asked me to make one for Thanksgiving. I kind of hate most pecan pie, though, because there's usually a nice crispy top with all the nuts, then a weird, way too sweet, layer of goop that makes me want to die. I studied a ton of recipes, though, and did plenty of experimentation, and created a pecan pie that replaces the later of goop with a thin layer of dark chocolate. It's amazing. This is not at all humble, but my chocolate pecan pie may be the best recipe that I've ever created. Get excited!
- Pumpkin pie. I don't like pumpkin pie…at all. But it's a classic, and can you even imagine a Thanksgiving dessert table without it? I'm wondering if I can update it- maybe a brownie bottom, or make a pumpkin cheesecake, or something else that is delicious and not just pumpkin. This pumpkin silk pie seems interesting. Any suggestions?
- Peanut Butter Banana pie. I've only made this guy a few times, but I think this particular crowd will appreciate it- and mostly, I'm just looking for any opportunity to make it again.
- And this last spot….is a wildcard pie. Should I do a berry pie? Key lime pie? Grasshopper pie? Boston cream pie (not a pie at all, actually)?
So, what are you making for Thanksgiving dessert? Alternately, what are your favorite pie recipes? I'd love to get a few more ideas before I have to narrow down my last pie option!
What I Read, Summer 2014: part two
Here we go: the other half of my reading list over summer!
Everything Leads to You, by Nina LaCour
Although I did recently suggest that I was putting a hold on my YA fiction reading, I seem to have inadvertently re-engaged with the genre. Everything Leads to You is the story of Emi, a high school senior who is working to find a place for herself in the film industry. Here's the thing- the premise of this character is awful. This is an alleged 18 year old, who is offered her brother's apartment for the summer, with an outstanding job in the film industry, doing set design, on the dime of her college professor parents? Unlikely, and that's irritating. Once you can get past the unrealistic characters (pretend they are in their mid to late twenties, and it's fine) I actually loved this story! There is a scavenger hunt of sorts, and it's a romance without being romantic. Bonus points for being a pretty quick read. I absolutely, wholeheartedly recommend this to others, with the understanding that the character circumstances are ridiculous.
The One and Only, by Emily Giffin
I assume that everyone knows what they are getting into with Emily Giffin novels- Wikipedia accurately describes her as an author of the genre "commonly categorized as chick lit". The One and Only is a tiny departure from her usual romantic comedy, though- Shea is a thirty something who has worked in journalism in a football-obsessed Texas town her entire life. As she starts to consider pursuing something outside of her comfort zone, Shae simultaneously begins to engage in a romance with her best friend's widowed dad. Yep, it's totally weird and a little cringe-worthy, but I was actually happy to read some light literature that had characters that diverged a bit from the usual. I don't know that I would go out of my way to suggest this book to anyone else, but if asked, I wouldn't give it a negative review.
Red Hook Road, by Ayelet Waldman
Red Hook Road was a great, great read- it's one of those books that, when I finished, I was truly satisfied that I spent the time to read it. Red Hook Road starts with the tragic death of a newlywed couple, but chronicles the unlikely relationships that continue to develop between the two families after the accident, romantic and otherwise. I can't even go into various plot details, but I will say that the characters are so well developed, and the relationships and conflict between them is really well written- I can't recommend this book more highly, and am certain that you won't regret reading it.
Fallen Skies, by Philippa Gregory
I'd like to preface this by saying that Philippa Gregory is my guilty pleasure read- I seek out any and all of her work and consume it within days of learning of its availability. Just so you are aware of my bias J Anyway, Fallen Skies is the story of Lily, a chorus girl in post WWI England, whose mother dies and, in the traumatic days after that death, agrees to marry a decorated but troubled war veteran. Gregory is usually pretty wordy in her descriptions, and this novel is no exception- I regularly skipped paragraphs at a time of descriptions of people and settings. The characters are interesting, though, and I found myself developing feelings towards them; I think actively liking and disliking fictional characters is a sign of good writing, and that was evident here. About two thirds of the way through the book I thought I was going to be left very disappointed, but a plot twist closer to the end left me pretty satisfied with the story, as a whole. So, take this review for what you will- I love the author and I enjoyed reading the story. It's long enough, without being a superb novel, that I wouldn't likely proactively recommend this too other.
Sea Creatures, by Susanna Daniel
Sea Creatures is an interesting story- it's told from the perfective of Georgia, who is married to a successful scientist who has a pretty intense sleep disorder (necessitating a cuff, when he finally does sleep) and their son, who has regressed and refuses to speak any more. At the onset of the book, the family has just moved from their hometown due to a sleep related incident that is clarified later in the story, and tensions about the future are a bit high. Georgia takes the side job as the assistant to a widow-ish man with a house on the ocean, and brings her son along. Interesting things ensue, and we learn more about characters background, and then more interesting things happen, and then the ending is satisfying. This novel is not an award winner, sure, but I enjoyed reading it and think that it would probably be a good candidate for the ladies in my bookclub, if that's any indication of its quality.
So! That's most of everything that I managed to read over the summer. I've already started to amass quite the list for fall reading, but always love to get recommendations! So- what are you reading, or what have you read, that you'd like to recommend?
Taco Tuesday: Fajita Quesadillas
For whatever reason, I was completely obsessed with fajitas when I was younger. My family was not the type to actually go to Mexican restaurants, though, so I was obsessed with Applebees and Chili's fajitas- the sizzling cast iron pan that I always touched, even though I was warned not to; the plates full of lettuce and pico and gross sour cream, that I never touched; the stacks of flour tortillas that I sometimes ate plain. And, only God knows why, but childhood me loved my fajitas with a light drizzle of A1 steak sauce, to overpower all other flavors. What can I say? I was a foodie from the start.
Anyway, that story is apropos of nothing, except to say that fajitas (in any incarnation) bring back fond memories of my childhood. It was pretty dreary this weekend, and I was craving something familiar for lunch, and these Fajita Quesadillas were a perfect solution. They come together really quickly (grill steak, cook peppers, assemble fajitas) and are less labor intensive than the multiple-plate fajitas of my youth. Start to finish, this meal took about 30 minutes and, with the addition of some chips and salsa, were the perfect comfort food to combat this drizzly, Midwestern fall weather!
Fajita Quesadillas
- About ¾ pound steak, about ¾ inch thick
- 1 red pepper
- 1 yellow pepper
- 1 small onion (purple or yellow or white, whatever you have)
- Steak seasoning (I rarely use spice mixes, but I really love McCormick's steak seasoning)
- 2 tsp worchestire sauce
- Olive oil
- 4 10 inch flour tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- Salsa, sour cream, etc.
Prepare the steak: Preheat a grill, or cast iron grill pan. Lightly drizzle the steak in olive oil, and rub all over. Season liberally with steak seasoning, or salt and pepper. Grill steak for about 4 minutes on each side, without disturbing. Set the steak on a plate to rest while you do the veggies. When you are ready to assemble the quesadillas, slice the steak thinly across the grain.
Prepare the veggies: Wash the peppers, then halve and remove the membrane and seeds. Julienne the peppers and onions to roughly the same size. Heat a pan (I like cast iron, but you can also use non-stick) to high heat, and add a bit of olive oil. Add the peppers and onions and saute for about three or four minutes, until they have some color but aren't burnt. Season with steak seasoning, and add the worchestire, and cook for another minute. Remove the peppers to another bowl, and wipe out the pan.
Assemble the quesadillas: turn the pan to medium heat, and spray with cooking oil. Lay one tortilla down in the pan, and spread with about ¼ cup of cheese. Evenly arrange half of the peppers, and half of the sliced steak. Top with another ¼ cup of cheese, and another tortilla. Use a flat spatula to press down on the quesadilla, to increase the contact with heat. Once the first tortilla is lightly browned, and the cheese has softened, carefully flip the quesadilla to brown and melt the other side. (The entire trick of quesadillas is making sure the cheese is melted before you flip- otherwise, you run the risk of everything falling out as you turn it.) After the other side is done, remove the quesadilla and let sit for a minute before slicing into quarters. Repeat with the rest of the ingredients, and serve the tortillas with salsa, sour cream, guacamole, or any toppings you prefer.
Boo Baskets
Friends! Life lately has been nuts- tons of travel, lots of cooking, growing our business, promotions at my real job, networking and development conferences, and statistics….oh, my stats class this semester. Suffice it to say, there hasn't been a ton of down time recently and I've pretty much failed at celebrating autumn (save for my massive apple consumption).
One thing I really love to do each fall, that I absolutely would not let slip by the wayside, is Boo Baskets. I was in a job a few years ago that was pretty miserable- the work was menial and our boss was less than stellar. What made it totally bearable, though, is the fact that I worked with a pretty amazing group of people, and we excelled in boosting our own moral. One of the things that we did was Boo Baskets- every year, someone would secretly put a Halloween treat basket on a desk with a cute poem attached, and your instructions were to pay it forward to another co-worker or two. I loved, loved, loved getting these baskets, because it was always a bit of a surprise to see one pop up, and we were always sure to include everyone.
Now that I'm in a new job, I've kept this tradition going for two years. I'm about two weeks late (I like to start at the beginning of the month) but this morning I stopped by the grocery for some supplies- I use a mix of Halloween candy and some other fun things, like cookie cutters, mini candles, and fun toys. I packed everything into trick-or-treat buckets, printed out my poem (there are several that can be found here that are sweet), and set these in front of a few offices of new staff members. I'm hoping they follow the instructions and keep this going, but even if they don't, at least I surprised a few people this holiday!
What about you all- does anyone else do a fun Halloween celebration? I know the winter holidays are the most regularly celebrated, but I'll take any seasonal fun I can get!
Streusel Topped Banana Bread
Now, I've mentioned before my struggle with bananas before- we regularly buy more than we actually want to eat in a week. Then, as they start to attract fruit flies, I insist to Evan that we need to save them (on the counter, not in the freezer!) because I am absolutely going to make banana bread in the next few hours. And then the bananas stay on the counter for another week until I finally concede and throw them away when Evan's not around, because the last half a dozen times I've tried to make banana bread, the inside refuses to change from liquid to solid, even as the exterior starts to gain a nice char.
All of that to say- I've conquered banana bread. Yes, my friends, this weekend I mashed the leftover naners even before Evan questioned the need for them to remain in the fruit bowl, and then I made them into not one, but TWO gorgeous and fully cooked loaves of quick bread. Like a boss.
In the interest of full disclosure, I feel compelled to let you know that I used a variation on the recipe that my mom has always successfully used, and was just finally patient enough to problem solve for a minute- and that is how my bread became successful. First, I addressed the undercooked center by making a batch and a half of batter, and splitting it over two loaf pans- that cut down the amount of batter to bake. Then, I lowered the temp on the oven by 25 degrees and gave the loaves about 15 extra minutes to cook through. Finally, since the batter looked a little thin in the loaf pans, I made a quick streusel topping to bulk things up. The result- a very easy quick bread that turned out perfectly!
Streusel Topped Banana Bread
- 2 eggs
- 1 ½ cup sugar
- 1 ½ stick butter, softened
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 3 bananas, mashed
- ½ cup sour cream
- 3 cups flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tbsp baking powder
- ½ tbsp. cinnamon
- ½ cup chopped walnuts, totally optional
- ½ stick of butter, melted
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- ¾ cup flour
Mix the batter: Mix together the eggs, sugar, butter and vanilla- I used a wooden spoon, but you could also use a mixer if you'd like. Add in the bananas and sour cream, and mix until fully combined. Stir in the flour, salt, soda, powder and cinnamon (and optional nuts!), just until everything is incorporated- no need to over mix here!
Make the topping: use a fork to mix together the melted butter, cinnamon, powdered sugar and flour. Now, it may seem like it's not coming together- when you get to that point, get rid of the fork and start to press the mixture together with your fingers. It should really get to a nice pebbly texture with most of the dry ingredients will mixed in. If that doesn't happen after two or three minutes, add a tablespoon of milk and continue to work it into crumbs.
Bake the bread: spray two loaf pans, or butter and flour them. Split the batter equally, and top each with half of the crumb topping. Place in a 325 degree oven, and start checking the loaves at 45 minutes. The center should be firm, not wobbly, and a knife inserted into the center should come out clean. If the loaves aren't done at 45 minutes, return them to the oven and continue to check every three or so minutes. When the read is done, remove from the oven, let sit in the pan for about five minutes, then invert onto a cooling rack. If you're anything like me, you'll immediately slice off an end, slather in butter, and try to eat it with your mouth open, since it's lava hot. Enjoy!

I've been looking for it, but I haven't seen it yet. Brandon Knight has to tweet something in regards to the dunk that LeBron James threw down on Jason Terry Monday night. It doesn't have to be much. Something simple like "I guess everyone is going to quit making fun of me now #jasonterry" or some derivation of that would work. The taunting was unnecessary but I have to give LeBron a pass for doing it this time. After throwing something like that on someone how can you not gloat just a little?

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Having recently moved to the Mac, I'm importing my fonts and notice that most of the TrueType and OpenType fonts aren't organised in font families, like the Mac does with all the other fonts.
And it truly gets horrible in Photoshop.
What's going on here; what can be done?
Contact the foundry. Perhaps they have new versions of the font that sort out better in the font menu. It doesn't seem to be a Photoshop issue.
Can Mac group large TTF font families properly? Is there a way I could change the metadata of the font itself?
I use FontAgentPro to manage my fonts, and in Quark 7 and Photoshop nearly all of them are properly grouped into families, especially Adobe OpenType families. It's only the boutique fonts, like FF Scala or Meta, that don't list properly, but there are also keystroke-link problems with those too. You really shouldn't have these problems on Mac OSX with proper software like FontAgentPro.
