As she prepared to TOFFEE herself a cup, Emma felt a sudden urge to RESIGN from her stressful job. She grabbed her HOUSEPLANT and decided to take a break, using the LADDER to reach the high shelf where she kept her old TABLET. She FLINGed open the device, only to find a motivational app with the slogan "You’ve got this!"

    Love a wordy challenge, Carol Anne.
    Long ago on seven seas lived Pirate Queen Georganne on her fine ship TOFFEE. Centuries before computer TABLETs or HOUSEPLANTs, but just on time for FLINGs with a first mate. Broke her heart and so RESIGNed (per the plank). SLOGAN: shark’s bait best climb love’s rope LADDER.
