One of the downsides of being a confectioner is that Bon-Bon is busy every holiday and she has almost no time to do her own celebrating.

Lyra wants to help her marefriend - costumes, decorating, parties.

If only Lyra's common sense could match her enthusiasm.

Thank you so very much for the story. I had a lot of fun reading it and it sounded as though you had a lot of fun writing it.

Hopefully sometime soon with more writing under my belt, I can make you a story about as good as this one (Gotta say, what I wrote for Jinglemas probably wasn't the finest effort).

Merry Christmas!

Lyra shrugged. "Pinkie Pie owed me a favor." And that explained everything . "She said she'd been waiting for the chance."

To be fair it really does.

And there's no such thing as too ship-y

"Lyra." Bon-Bon rubbed her forehead to try and ward off the headache. "I'm not even certain that Arbor Day counts as a real holiday."

Earth pony blasphemy!

Though only reaching up one floor, it came complete with a family of gingerbread ponies (two of which looked unmistakably like Bon-Bon and Lyra) and a dog.

Lyra is hinting that she wants a dog, Bon Bon. You may think that it would serve as a magnet to pull some of her overenthusiasm away from you, but in reality, it would only add to the amount of gusto that you have to endure.

Up on the rooftop and standing astride the fake gumdrops was a gingerbread reindeer - one of the Gift Givers, painted pink and with a light-up nose.

Bori the pink-nosed reindeer / Had a very shiny nose / Although she never used it / 'Cause her set of antlers glows...

While this turned out to be a bit more ship-y than I'd intended (I think it's just those two - they lend themselves to being cute!)

As far as I'm concerned, if you're writing Lyra and Bon Bon and they aren't enamored with each other, then you're not really writing Lyra and Bon Bon.

Those two...

Writing for them is the best fun...!!!

I would have added Pinkie was looking for a special way to apologize; ever since the Ponk implied Lyra was some kind of a rare and unique rock...and BonBon ended up having to push her down the road...

With a heavy sigh, Bon-Bon got out the iodine and cotton balls. "At least they only scratched you and didn't try to hide walnuts in your ears. Again."

Good, that only in the ears...
