Meg Cabot's Twitter tipped me off... apparently Forbes asked various people about their Barbie memories in honor of Barbie's 50th. Well, as I clicked on the link, who was above Meg's story but our Sam?

Kelsey,

Thanks so much for posting this link. I loved the content.
It just makes me smile to picture Samantha's Barbies belting out tunes in front of the Lite Brite after the Pet Shop closed. I wonder if her city had any Great Hotels.
