Betty Bumblethorpe

As Betty Bumblethorpe from Just Inklined left the candy store with two boxes of her favorite chocolates in hand, she saw a reflection of herself in the shop window across the way. Betty immediately noticed that her once hourglass shape was now circular with a peculiar bulge in the middle. Betty decided right then and there the time had come to go on a diet. Pleased with her commitment, she then decided the diet would have to wait until after she had eaten the two boxes of chocolates she had just purchased, after all she thought, no point in squandering money and besides, isn't it a sin to waste food?
