A new seasonal item, the Phrygian cap, is now available through Nook Shopping. It’s for the French National Day, le 14 juillet (the 14th of July), also known as Bastille Day. It comes in multiple colors and only costs 880 bells, so check your catalog now through July 20th.

It is curious that the French national day is now recognized with an item, while national days of other countries (such as the United States’ Independence Day or Canada Day) are not. Well, there’s always next year, I suppose. 😛
I was holding a bug net when I spoke with Agent S, and she said she was excited for me, and she called me the bug catcher of the year! I’d like to think this was because I recently completed my bug collection, but I’m not sure if that’s true.

K.K. Slider was in town, and I asked him for a random song. He played K.K. Bazaar for me, Midge, Tybalt, and Hornsby.

Today, Label was in town. She wanted to see me in a comfy outfit.

She gave me a humble sweater as an example of what to shoot for. I put it on and spoke to her again…but that wasn’t enough to earn a proper reward from her. I should have gone home and picked up a good hat or accessory to add to my outfit; I think that would helped my chances quite a bit.
