An Amazing Night

On Sunday morning, I bought some turnips from Daisy Mae. She was charging 109 bells each, and I bought 1,600 of them (for a total of 174,400 bells). Later that night, Wisp was in town. I recovered his five spirits and he rewarded me with a garden table.

Yesterday (Monday), Daisy Mae sent me a recipe for some turnip salad in the mail.

Eloise taught me an interesting new recipe: She told me how to make a pile of cash! 😀

Eloise: I know! Why don't you try making a pile of cash too?

Unfortunately, it costs 297,000 bells to make it! 😮 So “making” cash isn’t as easy as she made it sound.

I’ve been spending some time working on my town (mostly my castle, but I’ve made a few other small changes elsewhere too). Static noticed a (56,000 bell) castle wall in my pockets, and he wanted to give me a shirt for it. A shirt! No way, Jose!

Static: Wait...you do?! Oh, please tell me you'll trade it for my layered polo shirt!

Out on Harv’s Island, Jolly Redd had an amazing painting that looked real. I still needed it for the museum, so I bought it.

Today (Tuesday), Louie sent me a famous painting in the mail! It was real, but I didn’t need it for the museum. However, I also received the amazing painting I ordered from Redd. I donated it to the museum, and it is huge!

It appears that I only need seven more works of art to complete the museum! 🙂

Nook’s Cranny was paying 122 bells for turnips today. That’s obviously not an amazing price, but it is more than I paid for them. And after losing a bunch of bells on turnips last time, I decided to sell most (1,300 of my 1,600) turnips today at that price.

After doing some stretching at the plaza, I earned 2,000 Nook Miles for stretching on 30 different days. That’s not the final goal, there’s another one when I reach 50. But still, this one kicked my balance up to 1.5 million miles.

Label was in town again today (just four days after her last appearance!). This time, she wanted to see me in a fairy tale outfit. The outfit she gave as an example was a bit odd, though: A school uniform with necktie? How is that a fairy tale thing?

Label: As you can see, it's a school uniform with necktie with quite the fairy tale flair.

But she also mentioned some other examples, such as knights and princesses. So I crafted a knight’s helmet, iron armor, and armor shoes. She loved the outfit, and she rewarded me with a Labelle knit shirt.

Label: Amazing!
Just like the painting.

See you all next time. Have an amazing knight!

Sasha in Disguise

Label was in town yesterday, and I decided to speak with her…since I’ve been ignoring her the last three or four times she has visited. 😛 She wanted to see me in a theatrical outfit, and that’s a pretty easy one for me. I remembered that I can simply wear my pirate outfit to pass the fashion check, so I headed home to change.

Immediately after changing into my pirate suit, a visitor came over (of course). It was Bones; he wanted to chat and play a card game and…taste me?

Bones: Wow! I was wondering what your decorating tasted like... Uh, I mean, I bet you taste good! Er, hang on...

He then corrected himself to say he wanted to eat my D.I.Y. workbench. Ah, I see. That’s much more logical. 🙄

Bones: What I really mean is I wanna eat your mini DIY workbench!

After he eventually left, I went back over to Label. She loved my pirate look, and she gave me some Labelle shorts.

My nice painting from Jolly Redd arrived in the mail, and I took it up to the museum. It is the real deal! Nice! 😉

Sasha seemed to be wearing a disguise today! I barely recognized him. 😛

Sasha: I used to want to be a pirate, too, but then I learned some more about them... It was disappointing.
Don’t disrespect pirates. 🏴‍☠️

I visited Admiral today, and he was standing in front of his fan…even though it’s the middle of winter! But yeah, this is what the inside of his house looks like.

Admiral stands by a fan inside his house.

K.K. Slider was in town tonight, and he performed K.K. Samba for me and Agent S. That was not a new song, so I’ve apparently acquired all of his new songs now.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Not Dead, in 2022

Yesterday, I went to Lottie’s Island to do some work. I found my former New Leaf resident Vivian there, and she wanted “a gym to dance it out.” As for the outdoors, I gave her some coconut trees, a climbing wall, a yoga mat, and an exercise ball.

The outside of Vivian's vacation house.

Indoors, I used a club wall and club flooring, and a variety of exercise equipment. She can exercise, dance, watch TV…or take a nap.

She enjoyed her new vacation home, and Lottie gave me another 6,000 Poki. On the way back to the plane, I spoke with Niko, and he found a message bottle!

Niko: Check out this bottle! I was just walking along the beach, and then... BOOM! Free bottle!

He gave it to me, even though he didn’t know what it was. He wasn’t even familiar with D.I.Y. crafting, but I found a recipe for a glowing-moss stool inside the bottle.

Back in Forest, I went diving and found a scallop. Pascal popped up to ask for it, and he told me that there are two kinds of things in this world:

Pascal: There are two kinds of things: stuff that is an apple, and stuff that is not an apple, maaan.

He then gave me a pearl in exchange for the scallop. I later found Wisp in town. Once I returned his spirits to him, he gave me a milk-glass lamp.

Today, Sasha was sick with a cold. I crafted some medicine for him, and he gave me an ice-hockey uniform.

I listened in on a conversation between Agent S and Admiral, and the squirrel told the bird that she was dying…and then dead.

Agent S: I am--for totally def literally--dying. I am dead, in 2022!
…but not really, right?

Admiral said he was confused by Agent’s use of slang. But oddly enough, he was actually referring to the “in 2022” part. But Agent S somehow talked him into using the catchphrase too. 🤷‍♀️

Nook Shopping had a yacht for sale today, at a steep price of 260,000 bells. I bought it anyway, even though I’m not exactly sure how I’ll use it just yet.

Yacht: 260,000 bells.
Where once there was a yacht,
now it has been bought!

Jolly Redd’s ship was in town today, and he had a nice painting for sale. It was the first time I’ve seen the nice painting for sale in this game, so I bought it. It will arrive in the mail tomorrow.
