Jeff's New Leaf Blog

On Monday, Inkwell told me that he had to let out a yell. So this is what he yelled:

Yesterday, Gulliver was in town, talking about motorcycles and pho. So I knew he was headed to Vietnam.

Later, I found a lost item (a book) on the ground. I asked all seven of the villagers that were awake, and it didn’t belong to any of them. I even had to search through the museum just to ask Lolly about it. 😛

But it didn’t belong to any of them…so I knew it had to belong to one of the three lazy villagers that were sleeping.

Today, I continued my search. It turned out that the book belongs to Hornsby. He thanked me for returning it by giving me a six-ball tee.

When I checked the mail, I found a conical straw hat from Gulliver over in Vietnam.

Toy Day is approaching, and many of my villagers have been giving me hints on what types of gifts they would like this year.

I still need several more clues, but here’s a summary of what they want so far:

• Agent S: an umbrella
• Aurora: green wallpaper
• Boots: a plant
• Cube: yellow food
• Inkwell: white clothes
• Lolly: beige wallpaper
• Molly: an aqua doll

Once you know what everyone wants, the Toy Day event is rather quick and easy (at least compared to earlier games). So I’m planning on taking part in the event this year. So unless plans change, look for a new blog entry on Christmas Eve.

Boots asked me for a new piece of furniture to replace his portable toilet. He wanted something similar, but different.

I saw that there was a super toilet for sale at Re-Tail, so I bought that. I gave it to Boots, and he loved it! He rewarded me with a wobbelina.

It’s completely insane that I connected the dots on this, but the phrase “similar but different” could be abbreviated S.B.D. You know another phrase that starts with those same letters? Silent, but deadly. How appropriate for a toilet, too. 😛

According to Luna, my recent dream visitors include Cupcake from Pizza and Jacob from Gooston. Thanks for stopping by, and Happy Holidays! See you soon! 🙂

Today was Harvest Festival day, and I found Franklin the chef at the event plaza.

He wanted to start the food preparation with a mixed salad. So he asked me to find a horse mackerel, a skinny mushroom, and an apple. Those were pretty easy to find, so he was able to whip up that salad pretty quickly.

He gave me a fruit basket to reward me for my help. Next up, he wanted to make some fruit soup. It was easy enough to find all the fruit in my town, but I did need some milk as well. So I had to help out villagers with their ingredient searches until one of them gave me some milk.

I took the ingredients back to Franklin, and he made the soup. He then rewarded me with a harvest bed.

For the main course, Franklin wanted to make some pan-fried red snapper. This recipe required some flour, so I had to resort to helping villagers again. And helping villagers involves a lot of fishing. They all want specific items (mostly fish), and finding those fish can be a time-consuming process.

Before I could get the flour I needed, the clock struck 10:00 p.m., and the event ended. Franklin and I did not complete the meal, but at least we made two dishes.

Inkwell summed up the event quite well. It’s a tedious process.

According to Luna, my recent dream visitors include Teren from DalyCity and Nath from Duxton. Thanks for stopping by! I hope you all enjoyed your Harvest Festival and Turkey Day!

When I visited Agent S last Thursday, I found that Big Top was also at her house. Agent S said it was like having a dance party. But to me, it seemed more like a superhero party with both of them there.

Olivia the snooty cat was camping at the campsite. I already have her in my Wild World town, and one of her is enough. 😛

I went to Katrina’s fortune-telling shop to check out her prices…and to get my fortune told. She charged me 500 bells to tell me that I need to wear western pants to improve my luck.

I realized that her prices have increased in almost every game.

Katrina's prices keep going up. If only somebody could have seen this coming. #animalcrossing #acnh pic.twitter.com/xyiwaoxaXx

This is in sharp contrast to Brewster, who has always charged 200 bells for a cup of coffee.

Yesterday, Saharah was in town, and I paid her 3,000 bells for new carpet and wallpaper. She installed a lattice wall and a kiddie carpet; I had no interest in keeping them.

I was happy to find that the museum gift shop had a silver shovel for sale. I gladly paid the 500 bells to replace the shovel I lost on Halloween.

Tonight, I ran into Boots near the Roost. He said he was exhausted from doing 10,000 squats today! That’s impressive! Compared to Boots, I haven’t done squat. 😛

Shortly after speaking with Boots, I ran into mittens! Well, actually just one mitten.

I asked around to see which of my villagers had dropped the lost item. Eventually, I returned the mitten to its owner, Lolly. She thanked me by giving me her mango.

I hadn’t seen Cube around lately, and I was determined to say hello. So that meant I had to search the museum for him. Sure enough, I found him there…in the fossil room. He seemed a bit irritated that I haven’t spoken to him!

It’s not my fault he’s almost never in town! He’s always hiding somewhere, usually in the museum. Maybe I should just stick him in an ice cube tray and leave him in the freezer, so it’ll be easier to find him. 😉 🧊
