My mom always gets mad if I spend too much on her for Mother’s Day. “Don’t waste your money,” she’ll say, even if I just show up with flowers and a card. But I still want her to have something that feels special, even if it doesn’t cost a fortune. I also shop for my sister, a mom of two, who probably hasn’t treated herself to anything non-essential in months. And then there’s me: a proud dog mom to Poppy, who travels with me everywhere and helps me manage panic attacks.

I remember the Oklahoma City bombing. I was in middle school when the news broke, and although I didn’t fully understand the scope of what had happened, I remember the image of the federal building’s collapsed side flashing across the TV. I remember the teddy bears and the yellow ribbons. I remember feeling shocked that this had just happened. Thirty years later, I stood at the edge of the reflecting pool where that building once stood. The air was still.

Photo: Travel + Leisure There are a few clothing pieces I never travel without once the weather warms up. At the top of my list are palazzo pants. Light, breathable, and endlessly flattering on my hourglass figure, they’ve become my secret weapon for looking polished without sacrificing comfort. Best of all, they’re incredibly versatile. Throw them on for a poolside lunch at a beachfront resort or dress them up with a nice blouse for a smart-casual dinner in the city.

Dubai is no stranger to over-the-top luxury. From seven-star hotels to indoor ski slopes and gold vending machines, the city practically defines opulence. This week, it added a new record to its glittering resume: the world’s most expensive cocktail. Served at NAHATÉ, one of Dubai’s buzziest culinary hotspots, the drink sold at auction for an astonishing $41,160 — and it came with a piece of crystal history.

“I like to think of preparing for target shooting like breathing for yoga,” my guide tells me as I line up the sight on my revolver with the moving Texas Star Target. “So, inhale now, relax, and then when you aren’t thinking about it, as you exhale, pull the trigger.”I do as I’m told and shoot the point off of the star, then repeat his advice to knock off another three. “Wow, I would never have tried that breathing method on my own, but it works,” I say, exuberant at my newfound skills.

Spent all day staring at my screen writing this one. So I'm taking the advice of the experts I interviewed and logging out for the weekend (well at least of work): https://t.co/Mieri9UHr7 #digitaldetox #wellnesstips #contentcreator #putthephonedown
