This morning, I tracked down Joan to buy some turnips. She was selling them for 92 bells apiece, so I bought 1,200 of them.
I met up with Molly later on, and she offered to trade robo furniture with me. Sure, why not?
When I worked at the cafe, I saw a new animal come in for coffee: Cherry the dog. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her before, even in pictures online!
Afterwards, I built a new snowman and he gave me a new number. I ended up with a triple ding; that means I’m one number away from a bingo in three separate ways. It’s even more rare than an actual bingo, so my bingo card is starting to resemble swiss cheese.
I bumped into Kidd, and–just like this past Friday–he offered me a painting for exactly 7,056 bells. But this time, it was a basic painting instead of a nice painting. I still don’t have a basic painting in the museum, so it was an easy decision to buy this one too.
Right behind Kidd was Tammy, who was fishing. I spoke with her and she talked about how funny it would be if a fish cast a line up on land, with a piece of pizza on it. That would be hard to resist.
I found a lost item on the ground, so I began asking my villagers if it belonged to them. I eventually found the item’s owner when I went in Tia’s house (which is looking really nice, by the way). She rewarded me with a red tie-dye tee.
I then headed up to the museum. First, I put my fishing trophy from yesterday in my trophy room.
And then I donated the basic painting; it was a real painting once again! Kidd rocks!
“The Blue Boy.” He later grew up to found the Blue Man Group.
Big Top invited me over to his house, and I had to pick a time. I really hate these planned visits, but I’m desperate for Big Top’s picture, so I don’t want to refuse him. I met him at 3:30, and he offered to sell me an item from his house. So I asked about the coelacanth sitting by the window.
He didn’t want to sell it because it’s like a brother to him. Okay, fine, fair enough. But then he told me I should catch my own!
Excuse me? I am the one who caught that coelacanth in the first place, buddy!
But interestingly, Big Top said the same thing about his stringfish and even his sea bass!
He must have a lot of brothers.
When I went up to the second floor of the Emporium, I briefly mistook Harry and Timmy for a father and son.
After I was done shopping, I decided to go around town taking some pictures.
Since it was a nice, mostly sunny day, I thought it would be a good time to take a bunch of wintertime pictures for my town page. So check that out if you’d like to see how Forest is looking these days.
