Backcard Story
Gingerbread
It was a crisp autumn day and Gingerbread decided to bake special cookies
as a surprise for the ponies. She sifted and stirred until the batter was
smooth. Then she shaped the cookies into little gingerbread men. "What
shall I use for their eyes?" she wondered, searching the cupboard for a
decoration. In the far corner, she spotted a jar of sugary stardust North
Star had given her. "This
will do just fine," she giggled, curious to see the results. She mixed the
powder, carefully dropped it onto the cookies and popped them in the oven
to bake. The ponies arrived just as Gingerbread was taking the cookies out
of the oven. To everyone's surprise, the stardust she used for the eyes
made them sparkle and shine just like the ponies' eyes! All the ponies
agreed that these were the best gingerbread men cookies they had ever
tasted!
