Labor Day

Yesterday, I bought some turnips from Joan. She was selling them for 104 bells apiece, and I bought 4,100 of them.

Joan: The asking price is 104 bells per turnip. What do you think, kiddo?As Pusscat suggested, I posted a notice on the bulletin board to warn everyone that Velma has fleas!

Velma has fleas! Oh jinkies!Yesterday’s stormy weather was replaced with blue, sunny skies today. It’s Labor Day, so Isabelle was at the event plaza to hand out picnic baskets!

Isabelle: Mayor! Today is Labor Day!There was also a face-cutout standee for the occasion, complete with three holes for people to stick their faces through. While my two headless friends played badminton, I grabbed some food.

The Labor Day face-cutout standee.I stopped by my house to take a look at the picnic basket.

The picnic basket in my house.Back outside, Velma watched me catch a butterfly. But she didn’t seem to appreciate the effort.

Velma: Catching bugs, Jeff? Well, someone's got to do it, blih.I headed up to Main Street, where Luna told me Isaiah from Palm Bay was my most recent dream visitor. And in the Emporium, Tom was glad that the store didn’t have a cosmetics counter, because the perfume makes him dizzy!

Tom: This place doesn't have a cosmetics counter, so I don't have to worry about perfume making me dizzy!I hope you all had a nice Labor Day (for those in the U.S. at least). And I hope the rest of you had a nice day regardless. See you next time!
