Today is Labor Day in the U.S., and Isabelle was at the event plaza to hand out picnic baskets for the occasion.
Here you can take a closer look at the picnic basket, as seen on my fireplace.
That reminds me that I need to redecorate that sleek furniture room with a new theme. I have something in mind, but it probably won’t be done anytime soon.
Pashmina asked me to collect signatures for a petition called Mandatory Snack Time. I’ll never get re-elected mayor if I come out as anti-snacks, so I knew I had to help the cause!
And at the top of the waterfall, I found a lost book.
I went around asking my villagers about the lost item. I couldn’t find Molly or Bob, but I asked everyone else. Or at least I thought I did.
Later on, Beth opened up her gate so that I could collect signatures in her town. I forgot to take a picture of the completed petition, but her animals were quite helpful and they eagerly joined the cause.
When I was done, I opened my gate for Beth to get a picnic basket from Isabelle. We also posed at the Labor Day face-cutout standee.
I tried displaying a dorado I caught in the river earlier, and it poked through the faceboard somehow. Maybe I can stand here and cook it.
I returned the completed petition to Pashmina, and she thanked me by giving me a rococo chair.
Then, I knew I had to track down Bob and Molly to return the lost book. I figured they must be on Main Street, and indeed they were. Molly was in the Emporium, but the book wasn’t hers. So I searched the museum for Bob, and eventually I found him in the art gallery. Surprisingly, the item wasn’t his either!
So that meant I must have missed someone! I had to start all over, asking everyone. Beth helped me track down my villagers. Big Top? Not his. Still not Pashmina’s. Still not Hamlet’s. Or Julian’s, Aurora’s, Rolf’s, or Daisy’s. The only one left this time was Agent S. And thankfully, it was hers. At last.
She rewarded me with a dapper tee. 😮 Seriously? I had to ask 17 villagers for this, and all I got was a lousy t-shirt? I need to stop picking these things up. It’s just not worth it. Even though it’s not usually this difficult to find the owner.
Anyway, I hope you all had a nice day. Just as a reminder, Friday Night Forest is this week! I’ll be bringing back something I used to do in ACCF, but I don’t want to ruin the surprise for my guests until they arrive. But it’s not a race and it does not involve pitfall seeds. No more hints now. 🙂
Luna told me that Lily from Verona recently visited my dream town. Thanks for stopping by! See you next time!
