It's the thought that counts.
A recipe for disaster
Miss. Owens had seen a lot throughout her thirty-eight years at the college cafeteria. She was beyond retirement age, but pressed on despite her failing memory.
One brisk, fall morning, she decided to make frosted sheet cake for the student's dessert. Later that day as she watched the evening news, she came upon a peculiar story.
"Forty students and staff at Langston Hall were treated and released after consuming huge amounts of Dulcolax. It's being investigated as a senior prank."
"I work there!" Miss. Owens said with excitement - which quickly became shock. "OH DEAR...That’s where those darn laxatives went!"

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"

Oh no! haha. This was hilarious.
Oh no Miss Owens 😆 Well at least she knows that many of them loved her cake. ❤️

Lol. That was great.
Hahahahahahahahha! Oh poor Miss Owens. She only meant well 🤣🤣🤣
Ohhhhhhh shi*!!! 🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
a bit of a stretch to get a laxative in a recipe...(but with a failing memory, one cannot remember one's movements, I guess.) Fun story! p.s. you start in present tense and switch to past - intentionally?
😂 lol “senior prank”
It truly was a "senior" prank!
Lol this was funny! Liked this a lot!
Hahah, good one!
Haha! And a vicious picture to make the ending even more horrifying. Great stuff Lamar❕ 😂😂😂
