Interesting reading, again. I was not sure if you were still in Amish territory or had moved on. Is Rachelle going home with you? No spags and keep it all coming.

Lol. Oh boy, this was such a good chapter. Honest, very honest, and written with wonderful humour! Jane flying through the windscreen, YOU being the one to buy the clothes - that was a noble sacrifice on Rachelle's part - she obviously greatly values your friendship, and a great sacrifice on your part as well as you dislike malls. Maybe it would have been simpler if Jane had gone through the windscreen. Yes, a long, long trip.
Well done!

    Thank you, Wendy. I retaliate more in my head than in reality. I guess that's a good thing. I really appreciate the six and the exceptional review. Gretchen

I don't blame you about hating malls. I do my shopping online and sent right to my door. What an honor to add Fanstory into your story. It's never good to see a butt crack, some folks don't know what a belt is. You figure that feel a breeze lol. Great writing.

All your choices sound logical to me. It would be very hard for me to resist dumping her out in the country and racing away. Rebekah is so opposite Jane she would be someone to take home and coddle.

    I agree. Jane should be left on the roadside. She still might be. Thank you so much for this nice review. Gretchen

Amish Porn - a girl milking a cow and smiling at the camera. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! You are THE funniest woman I will ever know. I have a "Porn for Women" calendar that includes such sexy offerings as a muscle-y guy beneath a sink, saying, "Let's get a PROFESSIONAL to fix this" and another, clad in lavender rubber gloves, holding a spray bottle and scrubby, saying, "I'm gonna make this bathroom SHINE!" The best one, though, is the handsome guy, who looks all kinds of remorseful, whose speech bubble reads, "I was wrong." Still, your Amish porn beats all three of those times a million zillion.

I also love your fantasy of slamming on the brakes and watching our girl Jane crash through the windshield. If it has to come to that, so be it. I've taken one for the team; why shouldn't my car!

This was an exceptional chapter. You took the baton and carried us to big-time victory, Miss Talent. xoxox

Yes, People like Jane will never understand why the rest of He world don't think like them, and I suppose they have a point, but there is a strong resistance in me. Trapped in a car is not pleasant. Your fictional adventures are very interesting, as if Miranda is with you, well done Gretchen, blessings Roy

    Miranda is very much with me. Lol. But Jane, she is a burr under the saddle of everyone she encounters. I appreciate your kind review. Gretchen

Fantasizing about how to shut up an obnoxious person and sidelining a bad trucker (road rage) are close cousins. (smiley face here)
Well done. Well written.

    Ah, but I was only fantasizing. I may or may not tap the brakes on this trip. Lol. Thank you so much, Wayne. Gretchen

"She giggles, clears her throat, and starts reading." That sounds like a 7-year-old granddaughter! Good, descriptive line.

I had hoped if I gave Rachelle a good review for her story, she'd give me her credit card and tell me, "No limit," but, so far, crickets.

We got to see what was going on inside the mall, as opposed to outside, with your narrative. Nicely coordinated and written. I enjoyed it.

well, your fantasizing about hitting the brakes had me laughing and thinking, "atta girl!" I also had a little pop up thought, does Rebekah even know who Snoopy and Woodstock are?
I can tell shopping is not your thing as you didn't describe the other outfit Rebekah got, which, to this shopper, was a bit negligent, I must say. You sent a picture to Rachelle, which was a kind of a lame excuse for not having to describe it, IMHO. However, more Jane stuff will more than make up for it, I'm sure.
I really love this crazy story.

    Honestly, Rachelle had posted a detailed description of the outfit so I didn't want to repeat. And when it comes to shopping or Jane, shopping will win out every time. Lol. Thank you for this. Gretchen
