I just loved this especially the last line which made me laugh what a great finish and what a good story too. I do have one question though did Alison enjoy the soup? Thanks for sharing. Kooky

Thanks for reviewing. I'm pleased you enjoyed the story. I hope Alison got some use out of the soup mix.
Comment from Patty Palmer
This story had a happy ending because she came to her senses and didn't hurt anyone and her conscience wouldn't let her ruin the mistress' home. I bet after finding out the only thing in the container was soup instructions, she probably wished she had done something at her house.
Good luck with the contest.

An interesting story with a clever twist at the end. You have written it well and clearly with plenty of description of her feelings. Best wishes for your entry in the contest.

Comment from SimianSavant
A wonderfully rendered story with lots of detail, personality, and a witty ending. The opening sentence is so well constructed, diving right into the action. There is only one other contest entry that I thought was on the level this one was, and though I voted for that one in the contest for its clever revenge punchline, this one is getting my six rating. And now I need to look up this soup recipe. Nice work!

Thanks for your glowing review! It makes up for the fact my story didn't do well in the voting.
Comment from Susan Newell
I really enjoyed the humor in this. Revenge is something I try to avoid, but I decided to read this one and was not disappointed. You nailed the contest with your last paragraph. I was with Alison all the way through. Great job.

I think it is best not to engage in revenge as well, but thinking of a storyline for the topic engaged my imagination. Thank you for your supportive response.

You are very welcome.

Sometimes shortish stories need a grandstand finish to give them that extra spice to chew upon, and this is brilliant with all that special irony that gives it that peppered finish. An excellent post, certainly worthy of a great contest entry, well done, good luck, blessings Roy

I enjoyed reading your very engaging story. I felt drawn in and interested from beginning to end, waiting to see what would happen next. You delivered the action with skill and the pacing was excellent. Fantastic job!

Thank you for this terrific review! Your comments are most rewarding for me to read.
Comment from T B Botts
I thoroughly enjoyed this story! From the very beginning with Alison crawling through the weed covered lawn to her entry into the beautiful home, her angry thoughts, discovering that she couldn't destroy something she herself would perhaps love to have. Well done! It's too bad they don't make a seven, I would award it to you. Best wishes in the contest.
Have a blessed evening.

Thanks for your review. I don't think revenge is ever a good idea. I'm pleased she didn't wreck the house. Her husband is the one who should be punished for his wandering eye.

I agree you are more than welcome
Comment from Mary Shifman
Talk about a let down! At lease Allison didn't do anything too horrible to Cindy. This is a clever idea and a nicely written story. Very entertaining. Good luck in the contest.
