On Saturday, C.J. was in town for the spring fishing tournament. I participated, but only long enough for a single round. I caught five fish, which earned me a total of seven points.
I then redeemed some points for a fish-print tee.
When I checked my mail, I was surprised to find three letters from Lottie. She sent me photos of all three Able Sisters!
Their favorite quotes are as follows:
- Sable: Keep working and the water mill won’t freeze.
- Mabel: A stitch in time saves nine… more stitches.
- Label: Ask for a hammer, and you’ll get a needle.
I also got a tam-o–shanter in the mail from Gulliver.
Yesterday (April 10th) was a dark day. Zipper T. Demon has returned from the dead!
He has unleashed his evil fury in the form of an egg plague. Eggs now show up everywhere in town, and they’re nearly impossible to avoid. Be careful out there!
K.K. Slider was also in town (on Sunday night instead of Saturday, due to the fishing tourney). He performed K.K. Steppe for me, Apollo, and Hornsby.
Today, I found Ketchup enjoying some coffee at the Roost. To my surprise, she said she was in the process of slamming down half a dozen cups of coffee! That sounds like a lot for such a small duck!
I also spent some time tonight trying to craft a number of DIY recipes that I haven’t made yet. Since I can use craftable items in Happy Home Paradise vacation homes, this will give me more options for future designs.
Out on Lottie’s Island, Niko taught me how to make steel pillars and island counters. And Lottie introduced me to the new ABD, which can dispense both bells and Poki. I can even exchange the two currencies, with a variable exchange rate that changes each day.
I didn’t exchange any currency today, but it’s nice to have the option. After I donated more materials to Niko, I wrapped up my game for the night.
Barring any problems, I’ll have a short new video coming up tomorrow. See you next time!
Isn’t Mabel’s favorite quote stitches favorite?? At least in older games I could’ve sworn that was stitches, did Mabel steal stitches favorite quote?? :O
Yeah, it looks like they basically use the same sewing expression for their quotes, although Mabel adds the (redundant) “… more stitches” at the end.
Jeff: Um, why are there a bunch of eggs?
Zipper: Because, EGGS.
Yes, I’m actually minimizing my playtime this week because of Zipper/the egg plague.
