twilightpony | Green Grass Soup

For lunch, Spike made green grass soup with some of the fresh cut timothy I bought yesterday and with some fresh cut alfalfa he picked up at the market today. That was delicious with oat crackers. Starlight Glimmer told me that today she was reading The Art of Invisibility Spells. I bought that book last year in Canterlot to replace the copy lost when the Golden Oak library was destroyed. For dessert we had apple crumble.

In the hay fields around Ponyville, ponies are still mowing. We have more fields to mow this year due to the expansion. Since it was a warm sunny day, I opened a few of the smaller windows in my library room and let the sun shine in. It also let the aroma of curing hay waft in from the surrounding fields. Sunshine and the smell of hay makes this rock stable feel less like a cave. It's still cold and huge and prone to small hurricane drafts shooting up the staircase when the front door is open, but maybe Applejack was on to something when she tried to turn parts of the castle into a barnyard. She did go overboard with that idea. The thing my friends did settle on, the tree root chandelier, has the fact that it's less intrusive going for it.
