Stardew Valley #7 – End of Spring

I’ve finally returned to Stardew Valley for another play session.

Day 23

I got a letter in the mail telling me that the Flower Dance is tomorrow. I then went to work in the mine for the most of the day.

Day 24

I headed to the forest west of town for the Flower Dance today. I chatted briefly with everyone that was in attendance.

Haley, at the Flower Dance: I'm practicing my dance moves... It needs to be perfect.

Once I was ready, the mayor started the festivities. Six girls (wearing white dresses) and six guys were in the center, slowly wiggling dancing towards each other. It lasted about 35 seconds, and then the festival ended. It was cute, I suppose, but very underwhelming.

Day 25

Today, I took a home-grown cauliflower over to Jodi. Fulfilling her request completed a quest, and my reward was 350g…nice!

Jodi: Oh, that looks so delicious! Thank you, this is just what I wanted! It's going to be perfect for my yellow curry.

The blacksmith processed a geode of mine, and it contained a dwarvish helm.  I donated it to the museum, and that earned me some melon seeds as a reward. Then I worked in the mine until night fell.

Day 26

Robin sent me a letter today, telling me she can expand my house to include a kitchen. I would then be able to cook some food! Sounds nice, but I can’t even afford to expand my backpack again, let alone my house.

I worked in the mine once again, reaching level 10 for the first time. That unlocked the elevator there, so I can quickly jump back down to this level again next time.

Back at my farm, I cleaned up my property a bit before sleeping for the night.

Day 27

The blacksmith processed two more geodes of mine, and they contained some malachite and celestine. Both of those were new to me, so I donated them to the museum. I got another new reward, a standing geode. It’s furniture, so I put it in my house. It doesn’t seem to do anything though, so it’s kind of a bore.

Day 28

I went up to the community center today and donated some items. I was able to complete the spring crops bundle, which unlocked another scroll in the boiler room.

Down in the mine, I reached level 15…unlocking another elevator stop. I still need to get down to level 40 so that I can complete a quest that I got early on in the game. 😛

Since I found some cherry bombs, I tried to blow up a wall that supposedly leads to the railroad. It didn’t work, however. Maybe I’ve been playing too much Zelda, the way I’m thinking bombs are always the answer. 😉

Blowing stuff up is a blast.

After that, I returned home, shipped a bunch of stuff, and went to bed. And with that, that (finally) completes my first spring in Stardew Valley. Summer will arrive the next time I play, although I’m not sure when exactly that will be. 😛

If you’re a fan of the music in Stardew Valley, Amazon has the original soundtrack available. See you next time!

  1. I know you’re probably not at a point in this game you’d be thinking about it, but is there anyone you have in mind marriage-wise? We all know who you want to (re-)marry in Tomodachi Life.

    1. Yeah it’s too early for me still. Abigail is a possibility, as is Leah. But I’m not even friends with any of them yet, so it’ll probably be a long time until I get to that point.
