Weekly Menu Plan #51

Grain-Free Philly Cheesesteak Sandwiches

Thirty-three.  My soon-to-be age, come Saturday.  A lot of introspection happens every birthday.  I struggle through feelings of inadequacy, not hitting every mark I've set for myself.  Then I shake it off and celebrate all the blessings throughout the past three-and-almost-a-half decades.  Yep, a wild and crazy birthday partier am I.  The children asked what I wanted for my birthday.  I told them I still want to cook (I love it!) but I want daddy and them to do all the clean-up (I hate that part).  Win!
