We got up this morning and got Ethan dressed in his new voter shirt and headed out to The Square at Union Centre for the Sarah Palin rally. Ethan fell asleep in the car and woke up a little while after we got there, so he was still sleepy eyed. He did manage to keep his hat on most of the time though, which has been a challenge for us lately! We really enjoyed the speeches by John Boehner and Governor Palin and agreed with what they had to say. This is a tough election and everyone has a big choice to make! It is nice that candidates from both parties are visiting the Cincinnati area so we have the opportunity to hear in person what they have to say. Ethan got some kudos from other supporters on his shirt!
After the rally we went over to Deerfield and tried Qdoba for the first time. B1G1F in the Entertainment book :) It was yummy! They have more options than Chipotle and their salsa doesn't seem as spicy from the onions, which is a plus for me. I had a queso burrito and Ryan had the taco salad. Both were very good! Ethan snoozed, so no Mexican for him yet ;)After we got home Ethan and Ryan played in the family room and I made us dinner. Macaroni Grill has new restaurant favorites box meals that you can make at home. We got one of each at the store to try, and I made the Creamy Basil Parmesan Chicken and Pasta tonight. It was really yummy! We usually don't buy boxed meal kind of things any more because they have a lot of sodium and don't have much flavor. But we were both pretty impressed with this dish! It comes with everything except the meat, and this one even has sundried tomatoes, Ryan's favorite. It only took about 20 minutes to prepare after I had thawed the chicken. So very tasty and easy for a night when you don't really feel like cooking!
