This woman (unnamed, but let’s call her Betty), is a huge fan of gardening, as devoted to her pet parakeets as she is to Elvis, and absolutely loves to throw a good dinner party. Betty’s a fan of bold prints, spicy food, stiff cocktails, and always, always having a good time. Too bad Betty isn’t real, because she sounds like a hoot.
