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! 🌷🌹🌼

Yesterday, I received my monthly bank statement in the mail. I earned 75,450 bells for the month.

Pascal was in town, and he told me that a sea bass is not an instrument.

Robin told me that back in the day, spiders used to be as big as us! And you think you hate walking into a web now, imagine back then! 🕸️

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

Tank told me that he was fishing in the river, and he caught a squid today! I find that hard to believe, since squid can only be caught in the ocean.

A couple minutes later, I ran into Tank again as he was chatting with Caroline. Caroline told him that it was good to see him smiling.

However, Tank denied being happy. He said he was just flexing his face muscles!

After that, Caroline asked me for a new catchphrase to replace “on my Wii.” Her old phrase is a bit played out, after all. Since her coloring and hair look a bit like fire, I told her to say “on fire.” She liked the sound of it. 🔥

When I spoke with her again, she asked me to deliver a letter to Curt. I agreed to help out, and Curt told me that the letter warmed his cold, crabby heart. 😆

Caroline rewarded me with a green wall.

I recently posted a new Wild World video episode, featuring highlights from mid-February through late March. Here it is, if you haven’t seen it yet:

Just one last note: The flower fest is next week! Get ready to steal your neighbors’ flowers, if you play that way! 😆
