Growing up with pets, I know how hard it is to keep carpet clean.  Especially as they get into their older years, it can get really messy. Throw in your occasional spill from time to time and general foot traffic coming through, and if you have kids, then you know how dirty carpet can get, fast!

I was also looking forward to eating some tasty lobster and hanging out with my favorite blogger buddies!

License To Spill #ShopAs soon as I arrived I met up with my fellow blogging friends and who should appear then, but JD Roberto, who  is from The Better Show!

One of the biggest obstacles for me is finding an easy, fast, but still healthy lunch option as most of the time I have to leave early for work in the morning and I have a short lunch period at school, so I don’t have a lot of time to sit around to make anything from scratch that would be super healthy.

So off to Sam’s club I went to do some shopping for some low calorie options to help me get the year started off right. I knew they would have a good selection of fresh or frozen meals to choose from and offer a great price by buying in bulk. 1SamsClub
