Frozen Sculptures

As the new day started this morning, Isabelle gave me a DIY recipe for a snowflake wreath. It takes just four snowflakes to make, so I made one for my door, and three to give to villagers as gifts.

The Happy Home Academy sent me my weekly score, and I earned 156,886 points this week. But now that I’ve topped out at 150k+, I probably won’t keep mentioning my score in the blog. Also, that means I don’t have to keep my Halloween and mermaid rooms up either. I’ll probably replace one of them with ice stuff, once I have enough.

Daisy Mae was in town, and she was selling turnips for 97 bells apiece. I bought 1,600 of them for a total of 155,200 bells.

Daisy Mae: How much ya want at 97 bells per turnip?

Later, I spoke with my two previous snowboys, and they both gave me a large snowflake! So once you build a perfect snowboy, keep talking to him each day until he melts to get some extra large snowflakes!

Snowboy: I'm so embarrassed. Turns out I had this large snowflake stuck to me.

I rolled up today’s snowballs to make another snowboy, and he was perfect as well. He taught me how to make a frozen sculpture, which resembles a large bear. Here’s a look at my growing snowfam.

I found a lost item on the ground, and it was a book about bonsai trees. That confused me, because I had no idea who that would belong to. I asked Keaton about it, and he was offended that I thought it might be his!

Keaton: You thought this was MINE?! Have you been paying attention to my aesthetic at all?

He told me it looked like Rizzo-type item. So I took it over to the rat’s house, and there I noticed that Rizzo did indeed have several bonsai trees in his house. Oops.

Rizzo: Wait a minute...that's the exact book I lost recently!

Anyway, he thanked me for returning the book and he gave me a doublet.

When I gave Midge a snowflake wreath, she rewarded me with a bulldog jacket. I zoomed in to take a good look at it. I like how it says “DOG DOG DOG” all over it.

I wanted to see if the frozen sculpture could be customized, and it can! For those few brief seconds before the options showed up, I imagined customizing it into sculptures of other animals. However, the options only allow you to change the color of the bear. Oof.

But I decided to make the best of it. I wanted to make a red one and a green one…except that there was no red option. 😛 Okay, pink and green then. I like how they turned out, though! This is the entrance to my island.

See you all next time. Never Stop Crossing!
