Losing the Beard

On Thursday, Ketchup was “dance crafting” to personify a stethoscope. Except her “dance” consisted of her standing completely still. Such skill.

Ketchup: I am a stethoscope. I am a stethoscope. ...
She’s a Ketchoscope.

Yesterday, I found Beardo with a thought bubble above his head. I spoke with him, and he wanted to leave Forest to pursue a new business idea. Awesome! Get outta here!

Beardo: You never know where you'll find your next great business idea!

Today, he was all packed up and ready to move out! Finally!!

Beardo: Hey, this might be kind of awkward, but I wanted to say thanks for the advice you gave me.

Fortunately, I got rid of him before he gave me his photo. I didn’t want to have to display that in my house anyway. 😛

K.K. Slider was in town tonight, and I told him I was feeling a bit grumpy (despite Beardo’s exit). So he performed K.K. Bazaar for me, Ketchup, and Agent S.

K.K. Slider performs at the plaza in ACNH.

I’ll have a vacancy in town tomorrow, but I’m not sure if I’ll go villager hunting. If I do, it probably won’t be more than a few attempts. But check back in a few days to see who moves in next!

Rare Mushroom

On Sunday night, I found Wisp on another small cliff structure; it’s even tinier than the last one! I swear, he must seek out the smallest cliffs he can find. 😛

Wisp stands on a tiny cliff, ejecting his spirits.

When I recovered those spirits for him, he rewarded me with a wall-mounted LED display.

Monday was Halloween, and I grabbed some candy out of storage. After trick-or-treating for a few more pieces, I found Jack.

Jack: Hee hee! What an agreeable little minion!

I traded him some candy for Jack’s face and Jack’s robe, but he really wanted a lollipop.

Moments later, I ran into Ketchup. And she looked so adorable in her Halloween costume!

Ketchup: Trick or treeeeat!

After giving her some candy, she gave me my first lollipop. I took it back to Jack, and he wolfed it down before giving me a spooky carriage.

Jack: HAAAAAPPPPYYYYYY! HALLOWEEEEEEEN!

But right as I was talking to him, the event ended for the night. No more lollipops for Jack.

Today, Mom sent me an autumn-themed letter talking about baked goods. She included “Mom’s lively kitchen mat” as an attached gift.

My dear Jeff, Something about seeing piles of colorful leaves everywhere puts me in the mood to bake. Pies! Cakes! Muffins! Biscuits! I can't fight this. I won't. I think I need a bigger fridge. -Mom
I was expecting something edible after this letter.

Now that November is here, we can find mushrooms around town. That includes the rare mushroom, which I dug up today and then sold for 16,000 bells at Nook’s Cranny.

Timmy: A rare mushroom! Sure! How about if I offer you 16,000 bells?

See you all next time.

Rio’s Itchy Brain

Yesterday, Gullivarrr sent me a sideways pirate barrel in the mail. I like it. 🏴‍☠️

With Halloween just a couple of days away, some characters are dressing up for the occasion. That includes Timmy and Tommy, who were wearing cute hats that made them look like…animals? 😛

Timmy and Tommy dressed up as...animals... for Halloween.

Celeste was in town last night, and she gave me a large star fragment. It’s kind of funny how she pulls this big, jagged, glowing (and possibly radioactive) meteorite out of her pocket like it’s nothing. 😆

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

Rio was sitting near the pond up on Bird’s Nest Mountain, and she was complaining big-time about the fact that she was itching all over.

Rio: My brain itches, Jeff! MY BIG CHIC BRAIN!

I swung my net and caught a flea, and she was shocked that she had fleas.

Rio: Ohmigosh..
You’re welcome. Now give me your photo, please. 😉

She thanked me for saving her from the agony. But of course, she offered no reward. 😛

Tonight, K.K. Slider was in town. I asked for a random song, and he played Soulful K.K. for me and Bones.

K.K. Slider performs for Jeff and Bones.
A skeleton and Bones enjoyed the concert together.

Enjoy your weekend, and have a Happy Halloween! See you again soon! 🎃
