The Acorn Festival is underway this week, and I had a chat with Cornimer (who is totally not Tortimer) outside of town hall. He asked me to bring him all the acorns that I can find lying around town.
He also gave me my fortune, which said a whole lot of nothing.
So I began gathering up acorns. They were everywhere!
But for some reason, Pippy felt the need to rush me!
These acorns aren’t going to walk off on their own! And this festival continues all week, so there’s absolutely no reason to rush.
Whitney asked if I’ve squirrel away tons of acorns yet. 😛
And speaking of squirrels, Filbert told me that acorns are very healthy. Yeah, maybe for a squirrel, but I’m not interested in eating them. Does he think I’m nuts?
As for the acorns, of course I took care to dispose of the rotten ones. I took the others back to Cornimer, earning mush furniture in the process. In all, I ended up with exactly 100 acorns! Just like I did two years ago.
They earned me seven pieces of furniture: I got a mush stool, mush end table, mush lamp, mush chair, mush dresser, mush closet, and a mush stand. I sold them for a total of 15,600 bells…which isn’t mush.
In other news, Truffles was finally over her cold. She thanked me for the medicine I gave her last week, and she rewarded me with a chainlink fence.
Filbert asked me for a new catchphrase, and I told him to say “with acorns.” Whitney had the same request, and I was out of ideas…so I said “on a pig.” Robin asked for a new greeting, and she’s now saying “Where’s Batman?” I don’t know why so many villagers were asking for new phrases today, though. 🤷
