Would taking $100 to small claims court be worth it?

This is more out of curiosity than anything else, I just wanted to get other opinions on this.
I just moved out of an apartment with a roommate last week, after a VERY hairy situation with her. She said I still owe her $100 towards the rent for the last few days of June, which is fine, even though she overcharged me for months. This was 5 days ago, and I got a text message from her saying if she doesn't have the money in an envelope at her door by tonight, she will take it to court.

Now, I cannot stress enough that I DID agree to pay this (verbally) and WILL be leaving the money for her. I never refused (just so no one thinks I'm trying to find excuses to not pay her). But I was just wondering if it would even be worth it for her to take something so small to court. Just trying to gain a little knowledge on how it all works.
 
If she wants to be petty, she could take it to court. However, the time and expense would really not be worth it to her (especially if you have agreed to pay her and would tell the judge that).
