twilightpony | Party Preparation Intensifies

Preparation for the Mid Winter party is in full swing. I helped Rarity put up Pinkie's banners on the Town Hall and Fluttershy is helping her with the inner decor. Inside, the greens, golds and reds remind me of the leaves and fruit of summer and everything glitters like the snow. All that's left to add are the balloons, streamers and confetti. Pinkie will put them in tomorrow, so they'll be fresh.

Rainbow Dash was back in town with her flying team, taking a break from their dress rehearsal and surreptitiously getting a feel for the air currents and for the widths and corners of the streets around Town Hall. Dash didn't like me calling their practice a dress rehearsal. Ha ha. It's aerial theater, right?

She and her reservists air dropped fliers and put up the posters Applebloom, Scootaloo and Sweetie Bell had printed. The whole Apple family is hard at work baking bread and pies while Pinkie and the Cakes are cooking up wagon loads of cupcakes, cookies and cakes. Zecora will be joining us and Pinkie has put her in charge of the beverages and soups. That way Applejack can concentrate on the mixed hays, silage, apple chips, alfalfa crackers and carrot sticks. Zecora will be coming in tomorrow morning so I had Spike take care of her list of all the things she will need that she doesn't already have. I'll be going early in the morning to her place to help her load and carry cauldrons and supplies. It's not easy pulling a cart through the snow.
