As I watched the results come in from Richmond on Tuesday night and saw Sen. Mark Warner’s race called, I knew Virginia had come through, again. What I didn’t know yet was that the rest of the country was right behind us.

Can a toy change the trajectory of a child’s life? Barbie, the good, the glamour, the ugly, and how she has shaped society.
As a grown-ass feminist, I did not think I would need to contemplate dolls. But then…there is Barbie. You can’t escape her.

This year marks another spectacular Garden Glow at Maymont. This august institution is in the autumn of their celebration of 100 years of being open to the public. I went to the preview the night before it opened in earnest.
