twilightpony | Farm Fresh Macoun and Braeburn Apples

Applejack dropped by late this afternoon. She told me that the apple harvest is winding down. Macoun and Black Oxford, Braeburn, Winesap, and Spy are the last apples still on the trees. She brought me two saddlebags full of Macouns and Braeburns which I set out in baskets on the kitchen counter. She told me that she'll have a bit of a breather between the last apples and the third cut haying. Next week would good for her for moseying on over to Yakyakistan. When I last spoke to Rarity, next week was good for her too, although I think the term she used was 'sashay'. I think I'd prefer to just trot to Yakyakistan. That earned me a raised eyebrow from Applejack and Spike just rolled his eyes. Well, _I_ thought it was funny.

I've already written to Princess Cadence to see if they can accommodate the four of us for two nights. Spike is coming too. That way we can get an early start when we 'mosey' our way up the road to Yakyakistan, and after we 'sashay' back, we can have a soft bed waiting for us where we can rest out trot-weary hooves. I should get an answer soon.

Spike said he will make an apple crumble with some of the Braeburn apples tomorrow. Today we just ate a bunch of the Macoun apples. So sweet and juicy!
