I was feeling a little under the weather recently when I decided to try out this new tea from Tetley, and wow! It is caffeine free so a perfect bedtime drink. The peppermint taste was perfect. I didn't taste much of the ginger though, which I was a little bit disappointed about. I slept better that night thanks to this warm soothing tea. -

I’ve always enjoyed drinking Canada Dry. It was the go-to drink for all stomach ailments as a child growing up. During COVID-19, I’ve been experimenting with making my own ginger ale at home. But nothing beats Canada Dry! This new premium drink tastes amazing. It has the heat and bite of real ginger without overdoing the sugar. The bubbles are nice and strong as you feel the fizz going down your throat. I’ve already went out again to buy a few more cases for my family. -
Voilà By Sobeys/Safeway Grocery Delivery & Curbside Pickup

This was my first time doing online groceries and being on the receiving end. I have always had concerns with food safety when it is delivered by a courier. Voila! put me at ease from the moment I saw the truck driving into my street. It is a professional courier who comes with a company branded truck. Inside it, there is a refrigerated area and a freezer area. The food was very well bagged: all the pantry items together, all the refrigerated items together, all the frozen items together and all the personal items together. It made it very easy to either put things into the fridge immediately or place them to the side for isolation.
The courier was very courteous and punctual. He phoned prior to the delivery to confirm that he would arrive in 10 minutes. He arrived on time and placed the groceries on the front step as agreed upon on the phone, so as to ensure physical distance is maintained. He provided verbal reassurance that all purchased items had been accounted for and nothing would be missing from my order.
The one area where I would give it room for improvement is the selection of products online available for purchase on voila.ca. There were items that I regularly purchase in-store at Sobeys that were not available online. However, if you're not looking to buy specific products, this is a good option for staying home during COVID-19. It is also budget friendly as there were items on sale which I took advantage of and stocked up on.

After the recent inundation of live action remakes, I wasn't sure if I would give this one a chance. All the reviews online went on and on about Will Smith as the blue genie; not much was said about Aladdin and Jasmine.
I ended up watching it in theatres with discounts and points all lumped together. And wow! I was not disappointed. I was left "speechless" at how amazing it was.
The changes from the original animated movie were logical and welcome. The acting was natural. And the genie? He added to the flair of the story.
The best part was definitely the music. The new version of the song Arabian Nights matches very well with the time and place of the movie. As for Silence, it is the new Let it Go.
I have since purchased the movie on Blu-Ray+DVD+Digital code so that I can watch it anywhere. I look forward to rewatching this movie many many times.

Whenever it's happy hour and I'm not sure what I want, I always end up ordering a grande caramel macchiato with soy, but don't hold the whipped cream. It's a guarantee I won't be disappointed.
I do ask that they reduce the number of pumps of vanilla syrup by one as I always find the default amount too sweet for my taste.
Otherwise, a delicious drink for a cold (and sometimes not so cold) day.

When things start looking really bad, this is my go-to solution for clearing blackheads. It does an amazing job at drawing out the impurities. I always start by washing my face and drying it before applying this mask. After using the mask as instructed, I use my blackhead tool to attack my face. I find it more effective to use the mask before using the tool as all the gunk is already closer to the surface.
Note: Sometimes the process of drawing everything takes several days and it may result in a breakout, so I would not recommend using it the day before an important event.

I bought this product after reviewing multiple blogs that provide recipes for DIY foaming hand soap. This was THE soap that everyone used and recommended. So that left me no choice but to buy the exact same one. No regrets! With just a little soap and a lot of water, I am now regularly supplying high quality foaming hand soap to my entire family. All I add is a little vegetable glycerine for moisture and a few drops of essential oils for scent and... Voila! Foaming hand wash that is better quality but a lot less expensive than anything I could ever buy premade. -

According to an article I read online, beauty products can be interchangeable, i.e. face products can be applied to your hand. So one day I figured, why not use a facial deep cleanser on my scalp? I suffer from an overly greasy scalp and I wanted to get rid of all the buildup that had accumulated. This product does an amazing job! I use it as a treatment once every few weeks. I wet my hair and then apply it to my scalp. I let it sit for a few minutes before massaging and scrubbing out the buildup. The feeling after is super refreshing! I definitely recommend this to others. -
