Frobert’s House

On Thursday, I received my latest bank statement from the postal division at town hall. I earned 87,000 bells in interest this month.

Pippy surprised me by asking me to buy some coffee for her!

Pippy: Hey, why don't you go buy me some coffee! Pretty please, in a pond?
Sorry, but takeout coffee hasn’t been invented yet.

It wasn’t really an actual request, though. Just random dialogue.

A new post on the bulletin board informed me that the Acorn Festival starts next week! I would say to start gathering your nuts, but there’s not really anything you can do yet. Acorns don’t appear until then.

-Acorn Festival Notice- The Acorn Festival starts next Monday! Let's all go find nature's most eerie and mysterious of gifts... THE MIGHTY ACORN!

Speaking of acorns, Mom sent me one attached to a letter yesterday. I dropped it on the ground, and I’ll probably use it next week.

Filbert was talking about the Acorn Festival too, and he wondered why Tortimer never shows up for that event (when he shows up at all the others). 😆

Filbert: You know, that reminds me, Tortimer never shows up for that festival...
Filbert: I don't understand why. What could he be doing, with legs?
It’s so mysterious. 😛

Whitney reminded me to water any wilted flowers I see, saying that hydration is key for flowers and for ladies.

Whitney: And remember, for both ladies and flowers, hydration is key!

Frobert was home, so took a close look at the inside of his house. (Note: He was already unpacked when I met him last week, but I was more focused on who my new villager was, and I didn’t pay as much attention to his house.) But it’s very colorful in here, and he has a lot of fruit-themed furniture.

I’ve also noticed that Frobert and Filbert’s names are only different by two letters. So I have two F*berts in town. Don’t be surprised if I use the wrong name at some point. 😆

Truffles has still been sick with a cold this week, so I gave her some medicine Thursday, yesterday, and again today.

The flea market was held today, and I asked Filbert about his zipper shirt. I thought it would look nice for Halloween season. However, he warned me not to slobber all over it!

Filbert: Ah! Please try not to slobber all over it, if you don't mind.

Apparently, that was his way of telling me the shirt wasn’t for sale. But there was nothing else I wanted to buy, and I didn’t buy from any of my villagers this time.

I’ll see you all next week for the Acorn Festival!
