His stomach rumbled a complaint and Napoleon sighed softly. How long had it been since he'd last eaten? Not that long, surely. He'd run out of lollipops about four hours ago, and hard candy yesterday. He eyed his surroundings with a few misgivings. There probably wasn't a shop anywhere nearby... when a heavenly scent reached his nose, he followed it without being fully aware of where he was going...

Sprinkles hummed christmas carols because they were cheery, despite it being the wrong time of year for them. She was making waffle bowls for ice cream sundaes.. With cookies from her sister, chocolate from Symphony, and a few other goodies from other food talented ponies, Sprinkles was doing good.
She was pulling freshly made waffle bowls from the oven and smiled as the sweet aroma filled the air.

As he turned around a bend the most beautiful sight greeted him. "Are you responsible for that amazing aroma?" he asked, his eyes on the cooling waffles.

"I am....fresh waffle bowls for ice cream sundaes..."

"Ice cream?" there were virtual sparkles in his eyes at the thought. "What kind of ice cream?"

She nodded. "Yes...Ice cream. All kinds of flavors...in fact one can make their own flavor recipe and we make it here."

"You don't say," he murmured, wondering if he hadn't died and gone to heaven. "I don't suppose you'd be willing to share with a stranger?" He gave her his best 'I'm just a poor hapless traveler... pity me,' expression.

"Neapolitan? Yea...I'm sure we have some."
She giggled as she went to find the flavor.

Perking, he happily followed her. The fact that this was her home, and she might not want a stranger there didn't quite make it into his thoughts.

She dug around the huge freezer and found the large container of ice cream and tugged it free. She opened it and grabbed an ice cream scooper and started making a big waffle bowl of ice cream. "Hot Fudge, whip cream and sprinkles with a cherry on top?"

"My dear? I do believe I've fallen in love with you," he declared over dramatically.

"Love at first site huh?Or in your case love at first tummy." She smiled and applied the fudge, whip cream, sprinkles and cherry before pushing it in front of him.

"They do say the way to a man's heart is through his stomach," he agreed with a wink before taking a bite of the sundae and humming in pleasure. "Love at first bite, most definitely! This is exquisite!"
