It's play time kids. Wow. Talk about Iconic! I can't believe Barbie turns 50 today.  I've been a fan of Barbie for ages. I have quite a collection of dolls, including my very first Barbie from back in the day, when she still had just the ponytail hairstyle.

I also have a Barbie that was signed by her originator, and amazing inventor, Ruth Handler.


My daughter found this hysterical video.... in case you haven't seen it:  I think Ruth Handler may have even had a good laugh on this one, may she rest in peace.
