Advice: Holiday (Golightly) Recovery
Erf. Are they over yet??? According to our Golightly Girl, Card, the holidays aren't officially over until February 15. Also known as Independence Day. However, the REALLY stressful craziness has pretty much passed, and you all deserve a round of applause for surviving. That is, if a round of applause could massage every muscle in your tense body, to some soft Sade tunes, while simultaneously feeding you chocolate-covered strawberries and Veuve Clicquot. |
Moms
 Bottles and diapers and binkies, OH MY! Being a mom is a full time AND part time job – you’re working at least a job and a half, which means you deserve at least 3-4 weeks vacation. Wipe off those strained peas, step away from the formula, and reconnect with your girlfriends. Having some good “You Time” will recharge your batteries and make you – if possible – even more of a superstar mom. |
 Golightly GetawaysFeatured Getaway
Blissed Out Baby Mama Portland GetawayWe know expectant baby mamas can’t “do” airplane travel too close to their delivery dates, but if you’re within driving distance of Portland, OR, this is the Getaway for you! Pack up your belly and your girlfriends! Austin Spa Getaway
Austin, Texas is located almost smack-dab in the middle of Texas, and is surrounded by beautiful hill country. Even the phrase "hill country" is relaxing, so you're one step closer to total and utter relaxation, which is what you'll find in our spa weekend. Martha's Vineyard Getaway
While a bit of a challenge to get to, Martha's Vineyard is relaxation personified once you arrive, and it is more than worth the trip. The terms "quaint" and "charming" were coined, specifically, for places like "The Vineyard", as the kids call it. Portland Beauty Getaway
We all need to indulge ourselves now and again (and again and again), and indulging in a beauty weekend is almost over-indulgent. We said almost. We recommend Portland, Oregon for a beauty weekend for several reasons. San Francisco Zen Getaway
When your life is flying by at a mile a minute, you must make a point to slow down to an exaggerated pause every once in a while. This is that once in a while. The San Francisco Zen Getaway will yank you right out of the fast lane, cloak you in comfortable natural fibers, and stretch you into chaturanga dandasana before you can say "Hold all my calls". It's Om away from home. Scottsdale Shopping Getaway
Recession-schmecession. See how easy that is to say? You've been carefully saving those pennies, and isn't it time to let loose - at least a teensy bit - and contribute to the economy? Or just contribute to your shoe collection? And in a sunny, warm place, where you can take frequent shopping breaks by sitting at an outdoor cafe and refueling. With wine. Seattle Cuisine Getaway
Seattle's weather is typically rainy, which can hinder most outdoor activities. Thankfully, there's eating, which is primarily an indoor activity! And what Seattle lacks in Vitamin D, it makes up for in Vitamin Great Food. If that is not an actual vitamin, it really should be. Seriously, when George Costanza proclaimed "Seattle is the pesto of cities", the food connotation was no accident. Seattle is a woefully underrated food-destination, which means you can be all "cutting edge" by scouting it out first. Tuscany & Umbria Getaway
Tuscany & Umbria are calling. Answer them. There is no better place in the world to experience wine, food and history. Or, if you're feeling lazy, just wine and food. Walla Walla Winery Getaway
You should go if, for no other reason, than to be able to say "We're going on a Walla Walla winery weekend!" "Walla Walla" is just plain fun to say. It's also just plain fun. Be forewarned, if you are not a fan of wineries, this is definitely not the destination for you. Walla Walla is a small, charming, sleepy town. Small, charming and sleepy is precisely what you want after a long day of wine-tasting. The number of wineries is dizzying, and you'll be dizzy enough from all the wine. |
