Six Words - So Little Time [toes, cranberry, keys, wedding, smile, letter opener]

I could feel the water squishing between my toes where it had crept into my shoes. I was up to my thighs in flooded cranberries. I fished between the floating red orbs, my hair straggling in the water. If I couldn't find the keys I'd dropped, we would never make it to the wedding on time. A call and a wave from the car caught my attention. My escort wore a bright smile. He had managed to get the car door open using the silver letter opener I had bought for a wedding gift as a slim jim. Great! Now can he hotwire a car?

Okay, Paperback Writer, you just have to be different, don't you? I can't pick a word from your list. That defeats the purpose of the exercise. Neither can I do your word lists in less than a minute. Oh, well, it was fun! Next time you'll just have to hold yourself back a little. I know that's asking a lot!
