Hot Chocolate

Wisp was in town last night, and I gathered up his five spirits for him. In return, he gave me some patterned stockings.

Today, Sasha was visiting Marina. After speaking to them both, I left out the door… Seeing both of them wave goodbye at the same time just struck me as adorably cute. 😛

Marina and Sasha both wave goodbye.

When I checked my mail, I found 11 valentines with gifts! All ten of my villagers sent me one, as did Isabelle. Each one came with either a heart-shaped bouquet or a chocolate heart.

A valentine from Marina.

Another small feature of Valentine’s Day, which was first introduced in City Folk, is the ability to drink hot chocolate at the Roost. Even though Brewster pretends to serve you coffee initially, you get a sweet surprise once you taste the hot beverage.

This hot chocolate is warming my heart...

I’m glad to see that this feature has returned. Happy Valentine’s Day! ♥

Brewster: Happy Valentine's Day.

Agent S told me about a comic book called Mr. Beard’s Hairventure. She told me that the first issue came with a beard trimmer…but she can’t grow a beard. 🧔 Maybe she could trim her tail with it instead?

Agent S: If you pre-ordered the first issue, you got a Legendary Beard Trimmer, but...I can't grow a beard.

Jolly Redd’s ship was in town again…just three days after his last visit! Unfortunately, he didn’t have any art that I needed this time. But I did buy a few of his wall-mounted neon lights! They were purple, but I paid Cyrus to customize them and turn them blue. I’m not sure how I’ll use them yet, but they are pretty cool.

Redd: Like the best power pop albums, it's impossible to get enough of some wall-mounted neon lamps.

Nook’s Cranny also had a really cool item for sale, a siren. It would be a good thing to use in an obstacle course or race, perhaps as the final goal. Maybe whoever lights up the siren first wins?

I’ll see you all next time. Happy Valentine’s Day, and Never Stop Crossing!
