Nanami Togarashi (Assorted Chili Pepper)
As the Spice Girls themselves once sang, "People of the world: spice up your life!" Nanami Togarashi (Assorted Chili Pepper) will help you do just that. Nanami Togarashi (Assorted Chili Pepper) is a traditional Japanese 7-spice blend with a flavor combo that combines red chili pepper, orange peel, black sesame, white sesame, Japanese pepper, ginger, and seaweed. A staple of Drew's pantry since she discovered it in ramen restaurants, you can use the spice blend on truly whatever you want, whether pasta, meat, sushi, or whatever your heart decides to cook that day! Your food will be packed with extra sass.
Joanna Vargas Rejuvenating Serum
It's rare to find a skincare product that truly makes you wanna say, "Ooh la la." Drew scours the world for those rare skincare treasures, and she found a special serum she thinks will make you want to do just that. Joanna Vargas Rejuvenating Serum is described as "deeply hydrating without suffocating your pores". It’s also the best smelling serum in Drew’s opinion. Period.
TUSHY Premium Toilet Stool
Let's face it. Pooping is one of the central parts of our lives, and we rarely talk about it. However, TUSHY did all the work for us, by finding a comfortable way to help us all ~live our best lives~ ...on the toilet. TUSHY calls their product a "tool for your stool," and it provides a stylish yet comfortable way to "keep things flowing" and get down with your bad self in the bathroom. It’s also a real wakeup call to realize there is proper alignment, and that our bodies were made to function a certain way for optimal results.
Tune Up Fitness Alpha Ball
This is a physical therapist in the palm of your hand. For many of us, our homes are now our gyms, and it's important to have the right equipment. One of Drew's favorite fitness finds during this era of at-home workouts is Tune Up Fitness' Alpha Ball! According to Tune Up Fitness, the soft yet firm ball is 3.5" in diameter, easy-to-grip, and can be used in workouts or to help relieve muscle pain with self-massages. (The perfect antidote for that 24/7 Zoom life...)
Solluna Feel Good Digestive Enzymes
Drew is a major foodie, which is why she loves Solluna Feel Good Digestive Enzymes! According to Solluna, the enzymes could help you digest your nutrients to boost immunity and also reduce gas and bloating, helping you get the most out of the food you eat, all while processing it through your body in the most optimal way.
8Greens Effervescent Tablets
Go green or go home! Sometimes, it's hard to find time to make sure to pack your meals with veggies. Drew found the perfect solution in 8Greens Effervescent Tablet, a supplement made from 8 real greens (spinach, kale, aloe vera, wheatgrass, blue-green algae, barley grass, chlorella and spirulina). The tablet is said to be packed with vitamins and nutrients, and surprisingly tastes like lemon-lime! Eat a whole salad in one bite.
(P.S. It's amazing to sneak in your children’s food as well!)
Deep River Spicy Dill Pickle Kettle-Cooked Potato Chips
Not much in life is better than a GOOD snack. Turns out Drew is in a bit of a pickle...because she is obsessed with Deep River Spicy Dill Pickle Kettle-Cooked Potato Chips! The flavor combines hints of garlic, dill, vinegar, and a little spice to create the perfect pickle-flavored chip experience! Drew ate an entire bag in one sitting.

The Book of Life: Daily Meditations with Krishnamurti
Speaking of 365, Drew has read this book throughout her life as it was a gift from her dad. If you are seeking a moment of peace to sprinkle into your day, The Book of Life: Daily Meditations with Krishnamurti is the perfect book to add to your reading list. Drew reads a daily meditation from the book whenever she needs a moment to breathe, reflect, think, or slow down. Peace is only a page away.
