I think my week off from blogging about Hanabi could be summed up quite easily: It snowed. I swear it snowed pretty much every day with brief intervals of heavy clouds and then more snow. I didn’t do too much last week, but here are the highlights.
Jingle of Course
Jingle’s first visit to Hanabi was a resounding success, but only because I saved and continued before delivering a couple presents. I thought I had enough info, but it turns out I didn’t. I didn’t know what color a couple things were, like the mini lamp. I thought it might have been white, but it’s gray, so I got Julian’s initial delivery wrong. Eep! And figuring out the color of the two wallpaper I had in my bag wasn’t easy either. In the end everyone got what they wanted. Jingle gave me a wreath and then sent me his picture in the mail.
I started a picture room in the museum. I’m running out of room for them in my house.
Snow-person building
I built my last hideous Frankenstein-like snow family where everyone except snowtyke was horribly misshapen. As a reward I got a sleigh. Now I’m on to building exquisite snowboys for the snowman set.
Yes you are! Next to your perfect little brother. 🙂
Note: 3 perfect snowboys pictured. Smug mode.
I had Saharah
I don’t know what look she’s going for.
I needed a lot of Saharah originals for Vella’s catalog so I let her remake the room…much to my dismay. Instead I took Vella over to Kasen yesterday and she cataloged all of Taiga’s Saharah set. Much easier.
I had Redd
I had Redd on Thursday last week, and he’s in town today. I didn’t need either of the paintings I bought. Last weeks was the neutral painting and this week’s is the wistful painting (Girl with a Pearl Earring)
I Managed to Unload My Turnips
Kasen had decent prices. I think 211? I didn’t wait to see if they would spike higher, I just sold. I was hoping maybe that would get me the gold turnip badge, but ever since I sold there hasn’t been a clear day in town, so no Phineas.
This week I only bought 900 turnips because I was feeling lazy.
Kadomatsu
I wasn’t expecting a delivery from Nintendo. They sent out Kadomatsu which are traditional Japanese New Year’s decorations. Seems a little weird sending it to the English games when no one knows what they are, but I was happy to get it and let Yumi catalog it anyway.
Sheldon Decided to Move
And I said “Go for It!” If only he had decided to leave sooner though because I had the most awesome camper that day.
He’s still up for grabs if anyone wants him.
I’m just gonna stick you in my closet and you can move in on the 2nd ok? OMG you’re so cute!
He does this to me every day. He sighs and then tells me about his moving out. It’s taking all my willpower to make him go.
You’re not nearly as cute. Can I have the hamster back?
OMG stop making me feel guilty. You wanted to move!
大晦日 (oh-me-so-ka) New Year’s Eve!
Tomorrow is the New Year’s Eve countdown. I’ll be opening up Kasen (my Japanese town) from 10am-noon PST (GMT-8) so you can grab some Year-End Noodles. If you can’t make it at that time but you can later on in the day let me know and I might open up again in the afternoon. I’ll leave out the Sagittarius Bow and the Capricorn Ornament to catalog. I don’t know if European ACNL players got the Kadomatsu? I’ll try and put that out as well. And now I’ve got to go do some 大掃除 (oh-soh-ji) big cleaning in Kasen so the town is up to snuff for visitors. 🙂
良ã„ãŠå¹´ã‚’ï¼ Happy New Year!
I hope you had a blissful Toy Day, Jenn! 😀
As an EU ACNL-player I can confirm that we did not receive the Kadomatsu from Nintendo, sadly.
I wish I could visit you tomorrow. If I do get a chance I will pay a quick visit! I hope you guys have a blast tomorrow, Happy New Year, again! 😀
P.S. I have been trying – and miserably failing – to grow blue roses. Any tips?
I had a great Toy Day and spent Christmas with my family. 🙂 I hope yours was wonderful as well!
I can order a kadomatsu for you if you don’t get to visit tomorrow. If you do, it’s there for the cataloging. 😉
Ugh! Growing blue roses is horrible. I lucked into mine with two flowers that I didn’t even know could make blue roses and it took FOREVER. My recommendation: I’ll give you two and then you can make bazillions of them easily. But if you want to keep trying make sure you do your gardening on the beach so you know that the red roses are really second generation. (Villagers don’t plant down there and they don’t spawn there) and just use fertilizer every day and hope for the best. Also, if you’re on beautiful town ordinance don’t water anything else to increase the chance that they’ll spawn flowers.
Hope to see you soon. Happy New Year! 🙂
Thank you, it would be nice to get a kadomatsu – I believe it would look well next to the bamboo grass! Christmas was wonderful, and I am very much excited for the new year! 😀
Yes, I have noticed that it is a hazzle… I have been trying for a couple of weeks now.
OMG! I-I can get some from you? :O
That would be amazing! Thank you so much!!
Hope we meet up soon, yes! My villagers are constantly gossiping about you! ^^
Happy New Year! 😀
Hi Jennifer, it’s so sweet of you to open your gates. I would love to come by and get the noodles / catalog things! 😀
Do you still need the berliner? I can bring one for you. 🙂 Do you possibly happen to have a cider in Hanabi to catalog (…or trade even?)? I tried the language trick on my EU version and got the 12-grape-plate and the tweeter, but sadly it didn’t work for the cider.
Last-day-of-2013-greetings 🙂
PS: I’m sorry, I forgot that you will use your Japanese 3DS of course which will have a different FC. I’ve visited Hanabi before, but not Kasen. D’aw. Could you add me for Kasen, too, please, if your friend roster isn’t full already? Have a good Silvester-day 🙂
Hi Bambi,
I’ve added you to Kasen. I do still need a Berliner and I will go fetch a cider from Hanabi so I have one for you. 🙂 My FC for Kasen is 5155-3157-1276.
That’s perfect, thank you :> my Redd also happens to have the red hat, so I’ll make sure to bring two of those over, too! I will try to visit shortly after 10 am (7 pm for me), before the real life happenings will be taking over. 🙂
@Bambi
Do you have a spare 12 grape plate? By any chance? I have a friend in Germany on my 3DS friend list & got the berliner. 🙂 Bad time to mention that lol. I have one extra. I’d be willing to trade 1 Berliner, & 1 Sparkiling Cider For 1 12 Grape Plate & 1 New Year’s Noodles if anyone is up for that. 😉
I would try switching setting’s on my 3ds but already have NNID on my little Aqua (Hello Kitty) – 3DS.
My NNID is: barbiegurl777 on Miiverse in case anyone want’s to know. 🙂
Happy Gaming! (^_^)
Shoot sorry to double post but I have one other question if you build a snowboy & the green tag say’s SnowBoy when you talk to the snowboy. will you still get snowboy furniture in the mail? I made a snowboy but he complained about his head just being a smidge to small. Also @Jenn that trick did work with the snowboy as for at least making him with rolling the snowball up to the eye level. Thank you. 🙂
Happy Gaming! (^_^)
My 3DS FC is: 3480-2549-1588 for trading item’s sorry…
Happy Gaming! (^_^)
@barbiegurl777 If the snowboy complains about his head being a smidge too small he won’t send you the snowman furniture in the mail. He’ll only send it to you if he thinks he’s perfect unfortunately.
