She's a Yummy Mummy and We Love Her!

The antics of Becky Brandon (née Bloomwood) and her bank overdraft have been a source of guilty pleasure for several years now. Becky is the heroine of Sophie Kinsella's Chick-Lit "Shopaholic" books, which are silly, indulgent, and downright hilarious. Confessions of a Shopaholic remains one of my favorite giggle-fests in the world.

Kinsella's latest book is called 'Shopaholic and Baby" and as you can imagine, it is just what this expectant mother needed to put the whole baby-mania in perspective. Having seen the disastrous effects of letting Becky loose on the poor, unsuspecting baby industry, I can now plan for the arrival of my own little ones with a little more sanity.

No, its not great literature, but Becky is a Yummy Mummy and We Love Her!
