Stress Relieving Jasmine Tea:

Let me start off by saying in no shape or form am I a tea lover. I even surprised myself with this favorite. I am team coffee all the way and I stand with it to the grave. However let me just tell you, this tea is INCREDIBLE. As someone who struggles a lot with stress, especially now with AP Season coming up, this tea has been life changing for me. Usually I have dinner and then try to get in another couple hours of studying which is the time where I am definitely the most stressed and mentally drained. But ever since I have been drinking this tea, I can happily say I feel just a bit more at peace. I don't think all my anxiety and stress is going to go away because of one liquid, but this tea for sure helps. When I do end up going to bed, I feel at a more relaxed state of mind and for sure get a better night's sleep. If you are someone like me who is not really into tea, this one is perfect since it is super light and easy on your body, and just gets the job done.

2.GroovebookI have been an avid Shark Tank fan since I was about ten years old and the other day I came across an article which showed "Mr. Wonderful" or as non Shark Tank fans know him - Kevin O' Leary's best investments. One of the products which made the top ranking was this app called Groovebook. Grovebook is an app where you pick up to a hundred photos off of your camera roll for each month, and pay about 4 dollars to get them delivered right to your door step. As someone who is bored out of her mind right now in Quarantine, I have been trying to find any DIY projects I can - and one of them was a wall collage. Groovebook was perfect for this as for 4 dollars, I got 100 of my best pictures sent in exceptional quality for my wall. The app is a sort of subscription service so the only annoying thing is that in order to avoid being charged 4 dollars every month, you have to remember to skip the specific month on the app, otherwise it will charge you even if you did not order any pictures. Besides this small detail, the app is completely user friendly and the quality is exceptional!

3. Trader Joe's Ravioli PastaI always tell my dad - in another life I was for sure born in Italy. The love I have for the food, the culture, the beaches - is beyond me. So, the one food I think I am missing the most during quarantine is some yummy buttery Mushroom Ravioli. Mmmm my mind is watering just thinking about this. I think my dad knew how much I was craving my favorite dish in the world, so one day on his way back from Trader Joe's he surprised me with their own Mushroom Ravioli. At first I was extremely hesitant. How can frozen Trader Joe's pasta do justice to this incredible dish? But we decided to give it a go for dinner that night and then added a little tomato sauce and pesto sauce, and sat down for the ultimate test. I took one bite and I was shocked. Oh my god this ravioli when I tell you is incredible - I mean it. You can take the buttery mushrooms, the distinct mozzarella, and the way it just melts on your tongue is beyond me. Surprisingly, one serving is not extremely unhealthy, but definitely should be consumed in moderation. Needless to say, ever since then this has been a staple dinner every week for sure.
