Sparkly Blue

Here’s a new story challenge for you. Can you tell a story in 71 words using the following words in it somewhere:
  • CAPTAIN
  • LEAPFROG
  • BAKERY
  • PRESCRIPTION
  • WIDOW
  • SHAMPOO
  • ANAGRAM

The widow drove to the local pharmacy to get her prescription shampoo. She leapfrogged through traffic in her sparkling cornflower blue Prius; the shampoo turned her octogenarian hair the same sparkly blue. The shampoo anagram SUBUS* was in high demand for the County Cougar Club. She noticed an extra prescription bottle in her bag for Captain Harry Wong, the baker. Warning! These pills make you irresistible. They had a date tonight!
