	After a fulfilling day of pranks with Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie's hoofwear decided that it had supported her through too many joke related getaways. In fact, her last joke, which consisted of covering random, unsuspecting ponies with black ink, had been quite successful when you considered how many ponies she had played it upon. but it had necessitated no less than seven strategic retreats. She was sure that they wouldn't be too mad once they figured out the ink washed away immediately in soap and water, so all in all, the situation was still pretty funny. Still, she needed a new set of horseshoes now that hers had become defunct. Asking around town proved fruitless, so she decided to ask where she could find some fruit as well. Sweet Apple Acres was her next stop, because they had plenty of delicious fruit. As she arrived, she noticed that Granny Smith had been busy in the kitchen, preparing for a bake sale at Applebloom's school the next day. She had made plenty of appletastic treats, including pies, tarts, fritters and cobbler. Pinkie, mouth watering with the smell of all the baked goods, trotted up to Granny as she was carrying the last dessert over to the basket she planned on using to take the food to the school, and quickly covered her in ink. The shocked and darkly stained senior could only stare incredulously at the party pony as she asked for a set of new shoes. Taking her silence as an invitation to continue talking, not that she needed one, Pinkie decided to explain her reasoning to the befuddled Apple. "Everypony knows that when you want new horseshoes, you need to ask a black Smith and a cobbler."
