I am joining Saturday Centus at Jenny Matlock Off On My Tangent. Jenny’s on vacation, and she also has a new grandchild, so she must be in a great mood. For Saturday Centus, she gave us 100 words, plus a four word prompt (“It is our pleasure”), which she said totals 106 words! Thanks Jenny! I’ll take ‘em!
SHOCKING DISCOVERY
Not wanting him to think I required a lot of baggage, I packed my large purse with necessities. I rinsed the tea cup, turned off the stove burner, and was leaving when the phone rang. The caller hung up before I answered.
At the restaurant, we dined and danced. When I thanked the waiter, he said, “It is our pleasure. You provided entertainment!”
I didn’t think our dancing was that good!
In our room, I discovered my lingerie was missing! When I had answered the phone, I put the bag on the stove and burned a hole in the bottom. My unmentionables now decorated the restaurant floor!

Oh so funny! ...and it almost sounds like a true story! Funny how stuff happens in our haste!
LOL loved the embarrassing humor in this Centus. :)

I'm still laughing! Nicely done.
Tee hee! Oh, horrors! Love it!
Hahaa! Now that is true entertainment, both the story and the waiter's comment. I love how you tied them in, and gave us a surprise at the end.
Laurie! I loved this!
And, yeah, my math skills were especially bad that week!
This was really, really creative.
This felt like such a complete story in so few words!
Thank you for the smile!
