Jeff's New Leaf Blog

Just a short update today, mainly to say that the snow is now gone! Grass is green once again, and I changed my frosty ice brick path back to green bricks. Winter is nice in its own way, but I’m glad it’s gone (at least in the world of Animal Crossing).

On a sadder note, I said goodbye to my last snowmam. I caught (and redeemed) the last of the snowflakes last night.

I noticed Franklin’s RV at the drive-in campground today, so I went inside to take a look. He has some harvest furniture and some food/cooking related items.

I took a seat to enjoy some pancakes. Don’t worry, I didn’t eat any turkey bacon. 😉

My recent dream visitors have all had “M” names: Maddy from Dogwood, Madison from LeafLock, and Marta from Another. Thanks for visiting, and enjoy your weekend!

The other night, Vivian informed me that Saharah was in town. Except she didn’t spell her name right; she called her Sahara!

On Monday, I spotted a new sign on the bulletin board. It serves as a reminder that Festivale is coming up next Monday, February 27th!

If you need to know more about how the event works, check out my Festivale Guide.

Yesterday, I found my old friend Puck camping in an igloo at the campsite. My town is already full, so I couldn’t ask him to move in, but it’s good to see him again.

Today, Aurora sent me a letter in the mail. She sent me a 1-up cap, and she said it took her over five hours to pick this out! Five hours?! Get a life. 😉

Over near the town tree, I built a perfect snowmam. This is the last one I’ll need to build, since the snow will be gone as of Saturday morning.

After selling some gems to villagers and fossils to Reese, I deposited some money into my bank account. It was enough to make my balance reach 92 million bells.

Once I get a bit closer to 100 million, I’m probably going to start doing some island fishing and bug-catching. It’s been so long since I’ve earned a new badge.

Back in town, Rodeo sniffed out the hourglass in my pockets! He must have a really good sense of smell! I bet it’s taken lots of time to perfect it.

In return, he gave me a four-ball tee. And I thought cattle only had four stomachs…

When I ran into Molly, she was quite attracted to me. I’m guessing this is related to me wearing a lucky item or something, but I didn’t stop at Katrina’s to confirm it. I’ll just enjoy Molly’s affection while I have it. 😛

My recent dream visitors have been Totoro from Forest, Spencer from Duskwood, Maxine from Euphoria, Inuyashe from Uke Land, Molly from Moshland, Scorpius from Scorpio, and Paige from Oakwood. Thanks for stopping by!

Update: I just noticed that this is the 1,002nd entry in this blog. But the first two posts were basically previews, just looking forward to the game. So this is the 1,000th entry since I got the game. Thank you to everyone who continues to read this blog! 🙂

If you’re interested, you can find the very first entry (my introduction) here, and my first gameplay entry here.

Tuesday was Valentine’s Day, and Isabelle sent me a valentine, along with a chocolate cake. She told me to “enjoy the treat.” Hey now Isabelle, I’m the human, and you’re the dog! I give you the treats around here.

I also received a valentine from Molly, who sent me a chocolate heart, and a Valentine’s Day letter from Mom, who sent me a comfy sweater she knitted.

And in the Roost, I made sure to get my Valentine’s treat from Brewster: Hot chocolate!

When I scanned my Vivian card yesterday, Wisp appeared (as Vivian) and I asked for a new item. He gave me a men’s toilet.

And then today, Camofrog (who appeared to be hiding behind a fish tank) told me his heart was set on owning his own men’s toilet! He offered me 480 bells for mine.

I agreed to sell it to him, and he got wayyyy too excited about it.

Katie was in town, and I told her I would take her somewhere. But first, I just made her follow me around. She can’t fall into pitfalls, but I made her use the face-cutout standee. 😛

Lily asked me to collect signatures for a petition called “Go Nuts for Nuts.” So Beth opened up the town of Arrested for me, where I dropped off Katie and then began collecting signatures.

After collecting five of the six signatures I needed, I couldn’t find anyone else. Everyone was either sleeping or just not anywhere in sight. But then Beth told me she found Kitty in Club LOL. So I got her signature to complete my petition.

Here’s a look at my completed petition:

I returned it to Lily, but my reward was a bit underwhelming. Well, at least my friendship with Lily is getting closer. 🙂

My recent dream visitors have been Matty from Oakville, William from Toontown, Sniggles from Zachary, and Darian from Mannwork. Thanks for visiting!
