Why does the warm blanket of sisterhood, of feminism, not unfurl far enough to include a mother-in-law? writes Jen McGuire today. This piece is thought-provoking, especially for people who can't seem to align with their mother in laws.
It's fair for grandparents to want families to travel to visit them during the holidays, but there are some things they could do to make it a little easier.
Trade the morning rush for a weekend at Omni Parker House — Boston's downtown time-machine that simultaneously feels historic, chic, and effortless.
Since 1855 this landmark has anchored the city's rhythm and now welcomes you with rich wood paneling, vintage charm and modern comfort. Between visits to Fenway, strolls through the Freedom Trail, and intimate moments in Parker's Restaurant (birthplace of the Boston Cream Pie), this stay gives you permission to hit pause — and maybe write "me time" on your calendar.
At the end of the night? A plush robe, big bed, and a hotel that's as much escape as it is memory-maker.
The vibe? Vintage New York and jazz era meet your long-lost pre-kid nightlife. In the heart of NoMad, this spot gives Gilded-Age glam with speakeasy cocktails and chef-driven bites. Consider it your official excuse to sleep in — with blackout curtains, obviously.
If your version of "me time" involves sunlight and silence, this oceanfront escape delivers. Sunrise yoga, a world-class spa, and an entire wall of ocean views. Basically, the self-care weekend your group chat keeps threatening to plan.
