Hi, Ms Crocker... oops, Carol. What a funny story. It always amazes me how you can take a challenge and write a good story in such a limited time. So the oven was cold all the time? Ha-ha-ha...

Very cute story, nicely written and a comical twist at the end...
Everyone has a nemisis and Betty's was the blasted oven.
I hope she wasn't a blonde...

Excellent story. I think you handled the prescribed sentence well in the humorous story. I don't see anything to change. Good luck.

Carol---This is absolutely hilarious! The final line was a true punchline. Made me roll on the floor. I'm one who needs every single detail of directions to get from here to there. So I totally understood Betty's dilemma! Great contest entry. Sue

This would be a good place for a blonde joke if I were so inclined, which I'm not. Hair color has nothing to do with intelligence or lack thereof, ha ha. You're right ... their similarity (hers and Betty's) is the name.

    Patty,

    I agree wholeheartedly..I'm a blonde and not very fond of the jokes..but I guess they have to tease someone...Thanks, Carol

Hi, Carol.. liked this cute story, although it's hard to believe somebody would be that dense. (not you, I'm sure) I only saw one small thing you might want to fix:

"It's my family's standing joke that I can't boil water" This should be past tense like the other sentences in this paragraph. Good luck in the contest...Bob

This is such a wonderful take on a famous name. I love how the story unfolds, but I must admit that I figured she forgot to turn on the oven. I've done that myself a few times. Great job.

Sounds like my kind of girl, except now that the oven is on, I'd forget to set the timer and come back when smoke is rolling out. Great job.

    Wonderful! At least it doesn't affect your wonderful humor...or writing. Probably adds a bit of spice. lol Thanks, Carol

I got a giggle out of this one.

It reminds me of myself and computers.

Had a great panic one day thinking that my lap top was broken ... and it turned out that the extension strip that I had plugged into was not plugged into the wall.

This was a charming write from beginning to end.
