So the other day we had gone to a little park in the middle of no where. The kids had a great time and when we were leaving we were thinking we would see if there were any fun restaurants in their downtown to have dinner at. We’re driving along and hit the end of the downtown about three seconds after we started driving in it. So we decided to make a U-turn and go back home. My husband’s super fine driving made it so that the U-turn wasn’t super pretty. And all of the sudden we notice that there is a police car right behind us . . . watching the whole thing.

Nathan makes some quiet off handed comment to me about not wanting to get pulled over. All the sudden we hear from the back seat, “DAD! Drive faster!! Get away from the police!” Ummm . . . . . my four year old’s gut reaction is to RUN from the cops. Methinks this is not a good thing. As a side note, I really think that I need to do a monthly series of Quinn quotes. Because, honestly, she is freaking hilarious. I mean, terrifying as her mom, but also hilarious. Let’s talk about something I feel more confident in (i.e. not my four year old wanting to run from the law), this Grilled Vegetable Southwestern Quinoa Bowl! You guys!! This is seriously an amazing dish! I ate way too much of this by myself. It was one of those dishes that was like take a picture, take a bite, take a picture, take a bite. The smokiness of the grilled veggies pairs so perfectly with the chipotle peppers in the adobo sauce that make up the dressing. Also, I for sure need to cook more with poblano peppers! They have such a deliciously smoky spice to them!
