Harvest Festival 2015

Yesterday, I messed up Don’s coffee at the Roost, and he threatened me! He said he should bring his little brother there so they can rough up the joint! Wow, and I thought Don was the nice one. Apparently it’s a family of hotheads that can’t control their temper. Now that I see what a jerk he is, I’m glad I made his coffee wrong!

Don: I should bring my little brother here so we can rough up the joint...I found Molly taking a nap on the town’s metal bench.

Molly napping on the bench.I joined her for a moment.

Sitting with Molly on the bench.And today was Thanksgiving, which is known as the harvest festival in the game. I met up with Franklin at the event plaza and he started asking me for ingredients for the big holiday meal.

The big hubbub today is about celebrating the fall bounty. It's the Harvest Festival!I began asking my villagers for the ingredients, although they’ll only help you if you have a certain ingredient for them. That means a lot of fishing will be required, unless you thought to stock up on fish ahead of time.

Molly: You'll trade with me? Thank you! Here. I can give you my beehive.I took the time to get the ingredients right, including the secret ingredients as I helped Franklin make fruit salad, a mushroom bisque, and sauteed sea bass.

Cooking with Franklin.The last dish was a mixed-fruit pie. One of my villagers told me a beehive (honey) was the secret ingredient for fruit pie. But when I gave Franklin everything, he said the secret ingredient was wrong! No way! I spent a lot of time making sure I was right! Ughhh!

Franklin: I have a feeling there's a better secret ingredient out there...So I made sure to get one last ingredient very right. Sorry to be a pain in the neck, Franklin, but it’s time for dinner.

About to use my axe on Franklin.My recent dream visitors have been Amelia from Crescent (Tuesday), Jack from Cheshire (yesterday), and Emily from Hell (today).

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and/or harvest festival!

Diver’s Hood DLC

Yesterday, I headed over to Tom’s town Tomville for a short visit. His friend Vanessa was also there.

Tom and Vanessa saying hi.I sold some peaches at his Re-Tail and I checked out Tom’s museum exhibits. But it wasn’t long before Tom ended the session and sent us all home. I didn’t even have a chance to finish typing goodbye! 😛

I made a design of the French flag and then hung it up in my town. If you want it, just scan this. It is also available on my QR Codes page.

Today, Pete me outside my home with a letter from Nintendo. The DLC items haven’t stopped yet after all! Now through December 5th, you can download a diver’s hood from Nintendo Zone locations.

Dear Jeff, From 11/22 to 12/5, the diver's hood is available via Nintendo Zone!I headed over to the post office to pick up my new download from Pelly.

Pelly: Sorry to keep you waiting! Enjoy your new diver's hood!Trying on the diver's hood.I really don’t care for the diver’s hood, but it could be useful on a bad hair day. I checked for it in the catalog, and it can be ordered for just 600 bells. Hey, at least it’s cheap!

Diver's hood: 600 bellsA message on the bulletin board informed me that Velma won yesterday’s fishing tournament (I did not participate). Dizzy got second place and Agent S finished third. Congrats to the winners!

In Able Sisters, I wanted to try on a baseball shirt but Mabel wouldn’t let me until I undressed! Out of my wet suit, that is. But I’m naked underneath!

Mabel: It's probably difficult to try things on while you're wearing a wet suit. Take it off!After I changed out of the wet suit, I decided to buy (and wear) the baseball shirt. I didn’t really have a shirt on under my wet suit anyway, so I needed something. (I was previously wearing my jack-o’-lantern design).

Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Crystal from Ophelia was my most recent dream visitor. Thank you for stopping by!

Rolf Wanted My Clam

I decided to work towards some badges tonight by doing some bug-catching, fishing, and diving. While diving, I caught a scallop–that made Pascal pop up out of the water. I got a scallop! Hey, this isn't a potato at all!I gave him the scallop, and in return, he gave me a sea view (wallpaper). He also told me he can predict the score of any sports game before it starts: 0-0. Go back underwater, wise guy.

Pascal: I can predict the score at the start of every game. It's always zero to zero!While on my way to Re-Tail to sell my catches, Rolf stopped me. He wanted my clam, and he was willing to pay me for it.

Rolf: So I heard about your clam...He only offered me 360 bells for it, but I sold it to him anyway. What good are friends if you can’t even share your clam with them?

I visited Pashmina, and she told me it had been a week since she had talked to me. Well maybe if you were outside pinging me with PWP requests, I’d talk to you more…

Pashmina: Even a few days without you feels like a super-long time!I found a lost item on the beach, right at the northern edge by the waterfall.

A lost item on the beach.The first villager I asked about it was Agent S. And wouldn’t you know, it was hers! That was easy.

Agent S: Wow! That's my bag! How could I lose it?She gave me a tan dogtooth shirt to thank me for returning it. Not a very good reward, but then again, it wasn’t much trouble for me to return it.

Up at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Kieran from Pallet was my most recent dream visitor. Thanks for stopping by, and have a good weekend! See you next time!
