Ooooh, that was great! I didn't catch on until the description of the poor old woman-- the sweet tooth and the oven bit.
It seems to me, though, that now you've set up the ideas for some other intriguing takes on classic fairy tales. Snow White told from the falsely accused stepmother's point of view? How about Raphunzel or the Princess and the Pea? More falsely accused women transplanted into a contemporary time and place?
And then there's that whole Prince and sunset thing... care to tell us more??
