Bulky in Weird Places

On Wednesday, Wishy sent me a letter in the mail. He gave me a treasure chest, which is an item I’ve always liked. I threw it in my left room for now, even though it’s starting to get quite cluttered in there.

My new treasure chest.

It also matched my pirate hat…but that reminded me that I’ve been wearing the hat for such a long time. So I decided to finally take it off. Arr, I guess now that I have all the treasure I be needing, I can retire from the pirate life. πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ

Tonight, Eloise asked me to deliver a letter to Goose within ten minutes. He was only about 20 feet away, so it was an easy task. Goose showed me the letter, and it was a weird one. πŸ˜›

Oh no, Goose! Did you think your cheesy words would move me? Figure skating will make you bulky in weird places. -The Lovely Eloise

Eloise gave me a playroom wall to thank me for making the delivery.

Bones was still sick with a cold, so I gave him more medicine Wednesday, yesterday, and then again tonight.

It was K.K. Slider night at the Roost, so I asked him to perform for me. I didn’t have a request for him, so he just randomly played K.K. Bossa; it’s a classic!

Mitzi was trying to move out of town, but of course I couldn’t allow that! I want her to stick around for as long as possible. πŸ™‚

Enjoy the rest of your weekend, everyone! I’ll see you all next time. πŸ™‚

Cocoa Facial

On Wednesday, I checked the Flower Fest results on the bulletin board. Eloise was the big winner. Congrats, Eloise!

**Final Results** The biggest blossom of the Spring Flower Fest is Eloise's garden! Way to go!!

Speaking of Eloise, she was telling me about a cocoa facial she uses on her chronically dry skin. She even said that I could use one myself!

Eloise: ...but it really works! Give it a try! No offense, but you could really use it.

Peanut was still sick, so I gave her some more medicine. By Thursday though, she was all better. She thanked me for the meds by giving me a cowhide rug…which she called “my favorite.” Definitely not true. πŸ˜›

Peanut: Here! Your favorite! A cowhide rug! Enjoy, nutty!

Unfortunately, the cold has moved on to Bones now. I gave him medicine yesterday and then again tonight. Get well soon, Bones!

Down at the Roost, K.K. Slider was in town for his Saturday night show. I asked for a random song, and he performed Imperial K.K. for me.

K.K.: All right, get ready to dig the riffs on this ditty: Imperial K.K.!

After the show, I was headed back to the shop when I heard a shooting star. I wished on it before entering Nookington’s. Wishy should be sending me something next week.

I posted my latest video today, episode 54. It covers events from the past six weeks or so, including the Flea Market, Butch’s departure, and Flower Fest.

See you all next time!

Flower Fest 2023

Now that it’s early April, many trees around town are now pink. Wild World and the other older games use a darker shade of pink than the newer games, but they’re still a pretty sight to behold. 🌸

It’s also Flower Fest week, and Tortimer was standing outside of town hall. Of course, he only talks about his aching feet, so he’s really unnecessary for this event. πŸ˜›

Tortimer: Oh, Jeff... I'm so tired. My feet ache from standing here all day...

Many of my villagers have flower gardens set up for the competition, even if half of their flowers were wilted. I guess Forest needs some rain. 🌧️

Mitzi's flower garden. Half of her flowers were wilted.

And yet, Mitzi was quite confident that she was going to win the contest. Several other villagers echoed this sentiment.

Mitzi: I'm SO going to win. Beneath these dirty fingers lurk thumbs of purest green!

Eloise was confident too, but she seemed more exhausted by all the work she’s spent gardening. Yeah, I guess that can’t be easy for an elephant to do.

Eloise: My clothes and shoes all smell like flowers. And dirt.

There was a new house, and I went inside to meet Butch’s replacement. It was Caroline, the red squirrel with huge eyes. πŸ‘€ I kinda like her, even if her eyes look slightly freaky. πŸ˜›

Caroline: Nice to meet you! Out for a nice evening walk, are you, hulaaaa?

Peanut was still sick with a cold, so I gave her another dose of medicine.

I don’t plan on participating in the Flower Fest, not even to cheat and steal my villagers’ flowers. πŸ˜› But good luck to all of you who are competing this year! πŸ™‚ 🌹🌷🌼🌻
