Jeff's New Leaf Blog

With St. Patrick’s Day coming up next week, it was time for me to make my annual transformation. That’s right, it’s Mohawk McClover time!

Wallpaper was the premium item at Re-Tail yesterday, so I used the opportunity to sell seven ice walls that I had in storage from the snowmam this winter. That scored me a nice 124,432 bells.

And today (March 7th) is Molly’s birthday! So I made sure to attend her birthday party. Lily was also there to help her celebrate.

I then gave Molly a milk canister for her present, and she seemed to enjoy it.

But I think Lily was over-analyzing the situation. She calculated that there was a 90% chance that Molly liked her gift, based on studies of smile width.

She’s starting to sound like Fi from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. 😛

In Forest’s southwest park, I saw Bob sitting on the bench. He asked me to join him.

So I did. He’s a cool cat.

My recent dream visitors have been Andrew from Cherry, Timber from Xing, Grayson from Orchard, and Dominic from Kirkleaf. Thanks for stopping by!

If you’re not already aware, I got my Nintendo Switch yesterday. If you’d like, check out my impressions of the system. Or if you’d like to add me as a Switch friend, send a request to friend code 0442-0992-5516. And if you’re interested in the new Zelda game, Breath of the Wild, I’ll be posting updates of my progress over on Jeff’s Gaming Blog.

Also, just a reminder that Friday Night Forest is this week. I’ll be opening my gate around 10 p.m. Eastern U.S. time on Friday night. There’s not really a theme this time, but if you want, feel free to wear green since St. Patrick’s Day is coming up. But it’s entirely optional, of course.

On Wednesday night, Lily was out walking around in the rain. She said she couldn’t sleep knowing she’d be missing out on the rain. And as you probably know already, frogs don’t carry umbrellas in New Leaf (although they do in City Folk–including Lily).

After completing my normal play session (and saving/quitting), I returned to the game later on to sell some stuff. But I apparently put the 3DS in sleep mode and forgot about it, because the next day, the 3DS was off and the battery was empty.

As I charged it and started up New Leaf, I was greeted by Mr. Resetti! It’s not very often that I see him outside of his Reset Center. But fortunately, I didn’t lose much progress.

Today, (March 3rd) is Nintendo Switch launch day. I should be getting my Switch by Monday. But to celebrate the launch, I made a design of the logo and put it on my custom-design sign.

If you’d like the design, just scan this. I’ve also added it to the QR Codes page.

Naomi the cow was at the campsite today. She warned me that we might be neighbors someday!

Then tonight, I took a trip out to the island. I caught some valuable bugs (mostly beetles) and a few sharks as well.

When I returned, I sold my catches. I’m not sure exactly how much I earned, but I know it was over 100,000 bells.

My recent dream visitors have been Jordy from Sun Town, William from Toontown, Mary from Moonbeam, and Gem from Twilight. Thanks for stopping by, and have a good weekend!

Yesterday, Beth came over to pick up some extra pink roses that I had (and to see Forest again now that the snow has melted). We sat on the bench for a moment, and we were joined by our friend Camofrog. 😛

I also visited her town of Acorn, where we ate some leftover chocolate.

Back in Forest, I bought one of Big Top’s unwanted items to help him out. Now he can afford to buy what he really wanted, on Switch!

Today, Festivale was underway! Confetti pours from the sky, and villagers wear some silly headgear for the event. 😛

The villagers all seem to be in a great mood.

And over at the event plaza, I found Pavé the dancing peacock.

He asked me to collect three green feathers for him. Feathers will be floating around town, but they can be hard to spot among the confetti. Over by my southwest park, I caught a rainbow feather! They can be exchanged immediately for a piece of furniture.

But I had to catch a total of 19 feathers before I finally got three green ones. This event is very time-consuming. Pavé rewarded me with his Pavé clock.

He then wanted red feathers, and I only had two. So I went around town a few more times, and I eventually found a third red feather. Pavé gave me a Pavé table for them.

Next, he wanted white feathers…and I had none. So I saved and quit my game, and then restarted. This time he wanted blue feathers, which I had. After redeeming them, I repeated this process a couple more times to try to use up more of my feathers. In all, I acquired eight Pavé furniture items. I put them in storage with my ice furniture until my Re-Tail has a premium on furniture.

Bob was indoors during the time I played, but he said he would go out and dance later.

If you need a list of Pavé furniture or any more information, check out my Festivale Guide.

Luna told me my most recent dream visitor was Wayland from Waypoint. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you all enjoyed your Festivale!
