Month: April 2025

On Wednesday, Drift was telling me about how he used to sell seashells to Tom Nook when times were tough. He wondered what Tom Nook does with all of them, and this started out like dialogue I saw back in January…

But this time, he didn’t suggest that Tom Nook made swimming suits out of them. Instead, his theory was even more crazy: He wondered if Tom Nook eats the shells!

He said he thinks that Tom Nook will eat anything, regardless of whether it has amino acids. 🤔

Today, I listened in on a conversation between Truffles and Tank. Truffles accused Tank of following her around, but Tank said she was just in the way of his jogging path.

The weird conversation got even weirder when Truffles slopped another accusation at Tank: She said he’s secretly in love with her! 😆

Tank got angry, and said the only thing he’s married to is his weight bench.

Truffles didn’t believe him, but she walked off anyway. Quite an interesting chat they had!

Later on, Caroline asked me to deliver a gift to Drift, on fire! 🔥

The gift was a No. 5 shirt, and Drift didn’t seem particularly impressed by it. But Caroline rewarded me with 510 bells for making the delivery.

Yesterday, Truffles asked me to deliver a git to Caroline. So I took the item over; it was a mummy shirt…on fire. 🔥

Seconds later, I encountered more catchphrase fun. Curt told me not to get sick on his Wii. 😛

On the bulletin board, I learned that Whitney was the winner of last week’s Flower Fest! Congrats, Whitney! 🌷

Saharah was in town, and she asked me to deliver some wallpaper to Blathers, some carpeting to Mabel, and some carpeting to Tom Nook. When I eventually finished all of that, Saharah rewarded me with a boxing ring mat.

That was a lot of work, but I guess I really knocked out all those deliveries. 🥊

Today, Filbert asked me what I thought the distance was between our hearts. I left the slider in the middle (default), halfway between “three feet” and “one inch.” Filbert said he agreed, but he suggested that we move closer…because I smell like coffee. ☕

I never knew he felt that way! He hasn’t espressoed those feelings before. 😉

A bit later, Caroline asked if I knew that flowers had feelings…on fire.

This reminded me of the crazy flower lady (Magda) in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, who pretty much told me the same thing. She then went completely insane when I walked on her flowers, and I later set them on fire. 😆

But anyway, I told Caroline that I did indeed know flowers had feelings, and she was impressed. She even said she should start calling me the Flower Whisperer.

She clearly doesn’t know about what happened in Hyrule. 😛

The annual Flower Fest is underway this week, and Curt mentioned that we’re about halfway through. It runs from Monday through Sunday, so that checks out, with today being Thursday.

Of course, many of my villagers had flowers set up outside of their homes…even if a lot of them were wilted. Here is Drift’s house.

Tank was disappointed that shamrocks don’t count as flowers. Although, I think he means clovers in general, not just shamrocks. ☘️

Tortimer was standing outside of town hall to talk about the event, and he also gave me a white tulip bag.

Filbert’s house nearby had a lot of flowers; here’s a look at it:

I decided to help him out by planting my white tulip near his house. I’m not trying to win the event myself. It’s not worth the effort for me. 😛 I won the event once, in 2019, and I don’t feel the need to do it again.

Filbert’s mind wasn’t on flowers, though. He wanted to play a word game, where we name types of food that starts with the last letter of the previous food. I started with “plum,” then he said “mango,” I replied with “orange,” and so on. But after a few rounds back and forth, he got tired and basically forfeited.

When I visited Robin, she told me that she wished she could walk around and not have to talk to the people she sees. I’m right with you on that one! 😆

When I walked by Whitney’s house, I saw that she had a lot of flowers too.

I have no idea who’s going to win this event, and I won’t know until next week. But there are a lot of good contenders this year…I’m just not one of them. Good luck to you if you’re participating this year! 🌷🌹🌼
