The time has finally come! The “Barbie” movie has made its grand debut in movie theaters and touched the hearts of fans all across the world. Here in Tucson, though, restaurants and local businesses have been celebrating big time.
From 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. on Saturday, September 2, the party continues at 5655 E. River Rd #101 where the folks at Antsy Nancy treat you to a Barbie-themed tea party. Therefore, it’s the perfect party for those who are waiting to see the movie, have already watched it multiple times, or are simply a Barbie Girl living in a Barbie World.
Or, if you’re a newcomer to the world of pink and just getting to know who Barbara Millicent “Barbie” Roberts is, you will love this “History of Barbie” Tea Party led by the owner of Antsy Nancy, Heidi Yribar.
Everyone attending the event will be served a traditional Elevenses Tea, including scones, finger sandwiches, lemonade, delicious pastries, and of course, pots of freshly brewed tea.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
