I forgot about the whole meter thing in Chicago at night. Ugh.

Last night, shrimp with a spicy tomato pesto (from a jar) over polenta and a salad. I'm not sure what made it pesto, but it was basically like a more intense tomato sauce.

Tonight, we're trying a new-for-us Mexican restaurant.
We're not currently taking Lyft. And this was Evanston, so meter fees are not that expensive, in total, we probably paid $8 max, and would have paid $30 if we took a Lyft.
