Closest friends/How did you meet: Katrina, Bowen and Alianna Braune-
I did meet Alianna one day when she was resting under my apple tree. I would invite her to dance and play when she had time from her chores. One day she brought her older sister and brother to dance with us and they have never left since.
Lacey Ribbons- My father would travel to Lacey’s shop and purchase ribbons for our apple baskets. Seeing that she was an only child and her mother has passed on when she was quiet young I did travel to her shop to play with her in between chores. Lacey has grown to be my little sister who I would protect with my life.
Rowanna- Her Great-Great-Great- Grandfather built the Maypole in Canturbury many moons ago. When her father would come to expect the maypoles condition I would let her join us in a dance or two. She started to come more and more often to "inspect" the maypole.
Roseline Corridor- I remember the day I met Roseline to this day. Roseline was standing beside my favorite apple tree and looked suspicious. She did step closer to the tree and that is when I stepped in and asked what her business was. She did tell me that she was not trying to steal the apples but she was admiring the tree and how well it had grown. That is when I handed her an apple and she handed me her dead rose. I did invite her to dance with me and we to this day exchange an apple for a dead rose.
Luella- I do travel to her Father’s shop to purchase a candle or two I would always say hello to her and invite her to the Delicious Apple Orchard. She happened to be passing by when Katrina, Bowen, Lacey and myself where playing Toss the Apple. I did invite her to play and she did join us that night in dancing and she as was well as not left us.
Nikolai Boleyn- I have come to know Nikolai thanks to the Maestro. He does come with his brothers and helps us dance during the Harvest Festival. I do know that he has got the eye of one of my dancers but I will not tell you who.
Evgeny Boleyn- He is the most talented out of the Boleyn boys. I can always count on Evgeny to make me laugh though we do clash wits from time to time. When he does come in to Canturbury I always have a bushel of apples for him to take home.
Gemeione Boleyn- I did meet him from his father Maestro for he knew I loved to dance and that his son could play the fiddle like no other. Every time the Boleyn’s would come to Canterbury Gemeione would visit me at the apple orchard and we would dance till the sun went down. I will have to say that Gemeione has grown to be a dear friend and the brother I have always wished for.

Most Humiliating Moment: Two Harvest ago I was picking apples from our tallest apple tree. I heard the ladder fall backward and to the ground. I yelled for help but no one was around so I decided I must climb down the tree. I started to climb and was half way down when I felt my skirt get caught on a branch. I tugged on the skirt and kept on climbing down; I could feel my skirt being pulled off. Once I reached the bottom I looked up and saw my skirt hanging on the branch. That is when I heard my father clear is throat and there he was with the Lord Mayor. I realized at that moment I was standing there in my bloomers and bodice in front of the Lord Mayor. My father then asked if I had the apples for the Lord Mayor I greeted the Lord Mayor and ran to get his apples. To this day my father will not let me go by myself to deliver the Lord Mayor’s apples.
