Executive Producer

On Wednesday night, I found Eloise enjoying some coffee in the Roost. And then Orville also came in for some coffee to-go.

Orville: Why take a regular break when you could take a coffee break, am I right?

When I visited Eloise yesterday, she told me that my hobby is none of my business. 😂

Eloise: I heard a little rumor that your hobby is none of your business.

She continued on, saying that she was curious about none of my business. 😂

Eloise: I confess, I've been curious about none of your business lately.

Today, I earned 3,000 Nook Miles by fully completing the Executive Producer Nook Miles goal. Apparently, I’ve now harvested 1,000 vegetables…which sounds like a lot!

Executive Producer: Nothing feels quite like harvesting produce that you grew by the sweat of your brow, yes, yes! Now go enjoy the fruits of your labor--and the pumpkins, carrots, sugarcane, and potatoes too!

Celeste was in town, and she gave me a large star fragment. Meanwhile, Hornsby and Apple were resting on a bench in the background.

Celeste: What a sight, wouldn't you agree? Anyhoo, it was so lovely, I wanted to share it with you, Jeff!

Leif was the latest character I’ve found enjoying coffee at the Roost tonight.

Leif, at the Roost: Heya! I'm happy to see you!

When I flew out to Harv’s Island, I saw that Leif was not there. He must leave the island for the day at 10 p.m., which is an hour earlier than Tortimer! I would’ve expected Tortimer to have an earlier bedtime than Leif. 😛

Today’s mysterious island was another sugarcane island. These islands are starting to lose their appeal a bit. You know what I’d like to see? A gold nugget island! Gold nuggets are so hard to come by. If there’s a star fragment island, there should also be a gold nugget island, in my opinion.

Have a good weekend! I’ll be back again tomorrow.

Star Fragment Island

On Sunday, Forest had its first snowflakes of the season.

Isabelle: And today we've had the first snow of the year! Winter has finally arrived, Forest!

The snowfall was very light though, and it barely showed up in screenshots. But at least it meant that I didn’t have to water my vegetables.

When I took Kapp’n’s boat ride to a mysterious island, I arrived on a star fragment island for the first time. The best part is that the rocks yield a variety of zodiac fragments. They’re usually hard enough to get when they’re in-season, so this is quite a rare haul. Not to mention they look pretty in all the different colors. 😛

Star fragment island, with vines.
This was one of two star fragment rocks.

The island also had vines, although I’m starting to build up a substantial stash of those by now.

Today, Agent S was talking about music shows on TV. She was really getting into it. I mean, really, really into it.

Agent S: NOW I'M A METAL STAR! EVERYBODY GET DOWN!
EVERYBODY DANCE… NOW!

The mysterious island today was an autumn island. There were lots of mushrooms, acorns, and pine cones on the ground.

Arriving on an autumn-based mysterious island.

There was also a tarantula up on a cliff that tried to get me. But it disappeared once it reached the edge of the cliff.

Back on Forest Island, I ran into Wisp. I gathered up his spirits for him, and he gave me an outdoor folding chair in return.

Note: Yesterday, I finally posted my full New Horizons review. Check it out if you’re interested.

Cranny Sale

Apparently in honor of Black Friday, the Nooklings announced yesterday that everything at Nook’s Cranny would be 30% off for the rest of the month.

Timmy: From now through November 30th, everything in the shop is marked down 30 percent.

However, the Nooklings will tell you about the sale (with a five-page set of dialogue) every time you go into the store. So it gets a little annoying. I’d rather pay full price and avoid the nag-alogue, but that’s just me. 😂

Bones asked to visit my house last night, and I agreed to let him come over. Inside, he gave me his photo…but I was really just waiting for him to leave. After 4+ minutes of standing around, then he told me he wanted to see the other rooms too. So I took him around to each room, and we finished in the basement.

Bones: I haven't seen ANY of this before! It's like I'm in a museum!
If only a museum could handle these gyroids.

Ten minutes into the visit, he finally decided to leave. I’m not a fan of these visits. 😛

At the Roost, I had my usual cup of coffee. Brewster then gave me a coffee plant!

Brewster: A coffee plant... I'll put it in your pockets for you...

Today, Bones sent me a letter in the mail. He said he’s curious about the secret rooms he hasn’t seen yet! Even though he saw them all!

So, buddy! I had a buncha fun the other day! Invite me over again sometime. I'm real curious about the secret rooms I haven't seen yet! I'm fulla snacks! -Bones
The gift he attached was a cardboard box.

It was K.K. Slider night, and the singing dog performed a new song called K.K. Khoomei for me, Apollo, Bones, Static, and Louie. The song is a bit weird, and it sounded like it had some mic feedback or static during parts of the song. Still, I kind of liked it.

K.K. Slider performs for Bones, Static, Jeff, Louie, and Apollo.

When I put the aircheck in my stereo, the album cover didn’t show up! I thought maybe it was loading, so I kept waiting and waiting, but nothing.

The album screen apparently stopped loading at K.K. Khoomei.

However, when I closed and reopened the music player screen, then it finally showed up.

I hope you’re all enjoying your weekend. See you next time.
