Pinkie Pie woke up with a bounce. Gummie looked vaguely annoyed as he burrowed back into his nest to go back to sleep, but Pinkie did this most mornings, so he wasn't surprised or concerned.

Pinkie was far too excited to contain herself, though. Applejack had invited her to go to the bi-annual Apple Family Reunion as an honorary member of the Apple family tomorrow. Pinkie wanted to make a good impression. Lucky for her, a reunion is a type of party and nobody is as good at parties as Pinkie Pie! Well, except for maybe Cheese Sandwich. She smiled at the memory of the party they threw for Rainbow together.

Shaking her head, Pinkie pulled herself back to the task at hand. She started with her party canon. She'd used it earlier in the week, so it needed to be refilled with confetti and streamers for use again. She wanted to make a batch of her favorite pink sprinkle cupcakes to share with the Apple family as well. The last time she made them, Applejack had helped her and it hadn't gone well, so Pinkie had decided to make them alone this time.

The Cakes were using their kitchen all day, but Rarity had said that Pinkie could make cupcakes in her kitchen if she promised to clean up after herself. She gathered up the sprinkles and other supplies that she wasn't sure Rarity would have, called a goodbye to Gummie, and headed out to do some baking. She was going to really wow the Apples tomorrow!
