A Quiet Friday

While I was working at the cafe today, a strawberry shortcake came in and ordered coffee! Its name was Merengue.

Merengue: Could you pour a cup of coffee for me, please? I'd like the house blend.Down on the beach, I found Gulliver. I used my megaphone to wake him up quickly, and he was talking about Big Ben.

Gulliver: Can you believe that people assume Ben's the clock's name? Typical.Naturally, he was headed to England.

Gulliver: ...England!When I went up to Main Street, I saw that the Nooklings’ store was under construction for the last time. I’m expecting the Emporium tomorrow!

The shop under construction for the final time.In the Dream Suite, Luna informed me that Mars from the town of Kthxbai was my most recent dream visitor. That’s certainly an interesting name.

Luna: According to the latest feedback, a client named Mars from Kthxbai enjoyed your dream.
OK, thanks, bye.

And at Re-Tail, Teddy said that the golden closet I was selling for 15,000 bells was really cheap!

Teddy: Whoa! That is cheap! Golden closet? Only 15,000 bells?!But he was just psyching me out. He said it was still too much for him. Don’t waste my time, Teddy Ruxpin.

Teddy: And yet... Still too much for me.At town hall, I decided to use my Animal Crossing logo as my town flag for a while.

Canberra: When you catch a whopper, I'll be happy to help you celebrate! Mate!At 10:00, I opened my gate and Chris came over to visit. We hung out for a while, but no one else was coming. So I wondered if I had accidentally set my gate to “best friends only.” So I told Chris I would close and reopen my gate, just to be sure. After I did, he messaged me saying he had to go. After a couple minutes, Valeria came over to visit. I asked her if she was dreaming.

Last Day of T.I.Y.

Today, I made a pattern of the Animal Crossing logo.

There was a message posted on the bulletin board, informing me that T.I.Y. will be closed for remodeling tomorrow! That means I’ll be getting the T&T Emporium on Saturday!

-From T.I.Y.- Thanks to overwhelming support, we're expanding again! That means we will be closed for all of October 18th. So sorry!I then went to the Dream Suite. I dreamed of Nintendo’s official New Leaf town. It has Mario, Luigi, and Pikmin themed houses, along with face cut-out standees, and lots of mushrooms you can eat to grow to super size!

Growing to super size after eating a famous mushroom in Nintendo's dream town.I made a new entry in my Jeff’s Dream Suite Adventures section about it. For more info, tons of pics, and the dream address, see my Nintendo town dream page. While I was there, I got the stone path pattern from Wendell. When I returned to Forest, I decided to give it a try.

The stone path pattern I got from Nintendo's dream town.I don’t think it looks as good in my town as it did in the Nintendo town. So I changed it back.

When I went into the cafe, Kidd was enjoying a coffee. When I talked to him, he said he wanted to treat me!

Kidd: Jeff, let me treat you!I thought that meant he was going to buy me a cup of coffee. But then he asked Brewster to make me a pancake? Huh?

Kidd: Could you please make a pancake for Jeff, kid?I think this Kidd’s losing his mind. As expected, Brewster says this cafe is only for coffee. No pancakes for me!

Brewster: This is a place for people to enjoy drinking coffee and only coffee...After working a shift and earning some superb coffee beans, I continued my walk around town. Rolf approached me and told me he was going to start calling me Skippy.

Rolf: OK then. How does "skippy" grab ya? It's perfect, right?A gem rock gave me a gold nugget, and I had two of them in storage. So I took them all to Cyrus, and he turned them into a golden bed. Finally, a piece of gold furniture I actually needed!

Take home the golden bed?Up on Main Street, Leif reminded me that when T.I.Y. closes tonight, it closes for good.

Leif: You might have already heard the news, but when T.I.Y. closes its doors tonight, it closes for good.He continued, saying this means the end of his gardening corner, too.

Leif: That means today is the last day for the gardening corner too...And at the Dream Suite, Luna told me that Kyle from Cooptown enjoyed my dream town. Hi Kyle!

When I returned to town, I spotted Saharah. I gave her 3,000 bells to make over my house. She put in an ornate rug and a skyscraper wall.

An ornate rug and skyscraper wall displayed in my house.I like that wallpaper, so I decided to keep it. I put it in my back room for the time being. And before I was done playing, I got some great news: Canberra is moving out on the 22nd! Woohooooo!!

Canberra: Girls like me, we just gotta run wild! I'm sure you understand. You usually seem to get me.On that pleasant note, I ended my game for the night. I’ll be back late tomorrow night with a blog about Friday Night Forest, so check back then!

4th Fashion Check Passed

I got a letter from the Happy Home Academy in the mail today, congratulating me for scoring 70,000 HHA points. They sent me a gold HHA plaque to celebrate the achievement. I put it in my trophy room on the second floor of the museum.

My new gold HHA plaque from the Happy Homes Academy.I customized my first piece of modern furniture with emeralds. I’ll use my back room for this set, since it’s the only room of mine that doesn’t have a real theme so far.

My modern end table customized with emeralds.While I was out watering flowers, I saw a lost mitten on the ground near by zen bell (and on the cliff above my private beach).

A lost item (a mitten) on the ground near my zen bell.And over at the event plaza, I spotted Gracie! The theme for this fashion check was rock ‘n’ roll! I can do that!

Gracie, telling me the theme of this fashion check: Rock 'n' roll, you troublemaker!I found out that the lost item belonged to Aurora. She rewarded me with a jungle-camo shirt. (Why not your picture?)

Aurora: It's half of my favorite pair of mittens, so I'm awfully glad you found it!I then went up to Main Street, and saw that Ethan from Habitat was my most recent dream visitor. Hi, Ethan!

Fashion Check Time!

When I was done with my shopping run, I returned home to get my rock ‘n’ roll clothes on. I wore my skull tee, arctic-camo pants, lace-up boots, and skull mask.

Gracie: I suppose you did your best, honey. And for that, I'll be kind enough to let you pass for today!That was my fourth passed fashion check, so I have now met all of the requirements for T&T Emporium! It, along with Gracie’s boutique, will be opening soon! 🙂

Gracie: And I think I'm going to open a new boutique right here in town! Now, don't go getting all emotional.She also gave me this flan tank as a reward for passing today’s fashion check.

Trying on the flan tank from Gracie.I’m really glad to have my four fashion checks out of the way. I had been dreading them for a long time, although they’re not bad once you plan in advance with all of the clothes of each style. I’m just glad she didn’t ask for modern clothes today; that’s the one style I was not prepared for.
