- Hi everybody.
How's it going?
I woke up to Pepper throwing up in my office this morning,
so that's how my Monday has started.
But it's gonna be better! (laughs)
It's gonna be better!
If anyone was not here last week...
Oh my goodness,
you didn't miss anything exciting whatsoever.
Totally did not miss me auto-filling, like, two villagers.
So now we have Bianca and we have Knox.
And this villager lineup for this island so far,
this is looking absolutely diabolical in my opinion.
Like what is this?
The only good one is Beau and I don't mind Quillson that much.
And, like, Pekoe is fine.
This is so bad.
We're cursed with Hazel again.
(sighs) It's fine. It's fine.
Right now we just need bodies to unlock terraforming
and then, you know, we'll get to our usual kicking people out,
looking for actual nice villagers, stuff like that.
(laughing)
So totally fine. So totally fine.
I am going to talk to Tom Nook.
Sir Nook, I'm gonna see what's going on.
If there's any updates on our progress.
Now that we have two new villagers on the island,
let's see what he has to say.
"If we can raise the image of this island and get some excellent word of mouth PR,
I'll make a proposal to K.K."
All right, he's just saying the, the same, the same stuff.
So he has no updates. So let's talk to Isabelle.
Last week we were on a one star island rating.
Let's see if we fix that. Maybe the villagers helped.
I don't know. Let's see. Let's talk island evals.
Isabelle, give me some good news, Ms. Ma'am.
Oh, okay, well it didn't help.
It didn't help, but that's okay
because we're gonna make some more improvements today
and we're gonna, we're gonna get to terraforming.
I swear. We need more residents she says?
Oh my gosh, I already got two!
I'll go talk to Mr. Nook again. Sure. Yeah, I, I will, I will.
Do we just need one singular villager.
We have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7.
Oh my gosh. We do need exactly just one more.
Well I guess that means it is time for another villager hunt.
I didn't know that that was gonna be the plan for today.
I honestly thought we were gonna have like two stars
and I just needed to put furniture down.
But it looks like we're gonna have to do another villager hunt, so yay. (laughs)
I'll see if auto-filling becomes a thing today.
I don't know.
I'm not necessarily planning on it since we're actually, like, set up to villager hunt.
Oh, we need money first before we can do that.
Don't mind me showing up here broke with no money.
We were talking about villagers last week too
and the week before when we were getting custom designs
and I was talking about having a villager to be like a blueberry kind of,
because I wanna do, like, a fruit section of the island.
And a lot of people were saying get Bluebear, obviously.
But you know what? You know what?
Rosie is the option and I can't believe we didn't see this.
Look at her head, it looks like a blueberry!
Like, if you cut off her ears
and you, you just, you reduce her down to just her head,
she's a blueberry!
The the little thing on the top, she's straight up a Blueberry cat.
I think she is the choice.
And then I'm gonna have even more old villagers
because I had her on Pelican Bay.
I think she is definitely a strong contender if I'm committing to getting that many fruit villagers,
which I guess would only be two unless we're counting Merengue.
I don't know. There's still so much I need to figure out.
We just need to figure out terraforming.
There we go. There's the land. We're locked in, we're locked in.
Where do we put this house?
I'm feeling this back corner over here.
Let's just throw it right here down on this tree.
This is the spot. There we go. More lu- More luled is sand?
More land is sold. Oh my gosh.
Also, I haven't done any dailies,
so let's just very quickly do those.
I know I saw my money spot right here.
Like I just wanna quickly do that and like my DIY and maybe talk to villagers and that's it.
I guess we're only doing a thousand in the money hole.
Whatever.
Okay, here's our DIY. Yummy. Delicious.
What did we get? Classic picture? Heck yeah.
Oh... Well... (sighs)
Okay, let's go see if anyone's crafting.
I guess I'll actually talk to these people.
Yeah, she understands. She gets it. I'm busy. I'm busy.
Hey Beau! What's he crafting?
Please gimme a recipe that I don't know already.
I don't think I have the mum crown. Gimme that.
Alright guys, well let's just get to this village hunt today.
This was kind of unexpected, so I don't really have anyone
that I'm truly specifically hoping for.
Just anyone slightly food related would be great to get.
I only have, like, 30 something tickets, whatever I have left over from last week.
So whoever we get in that time is who we get.
If not, I guess we're spicy auto-filling again, but we'll see.
Okay, first ticket is Miss Julia! (laughs)
Oh my goodness.
We're getting Frogida villagers today, I guess. That's the vibe.
That's a good first ticket though. I like her.
Okay, help me not click "I want to go to work."
It's blue, so sometimes when I'm not paying attention,
in the corner of my eye, I see the blue text.
'cause when you do Nook Miles ticket, it's blue text.
That's why I accidentally click "Go to Work" sometimes.
Well, this is technically a foodcore villager.
Should we make a KFC on Bread Tag? (laughs) No.
I am gonna respectfully pass.
Oh my gosh, this is so funny.
We already found Miss Bluebear,
but since I decided that I'm gonna choose Rosie instead,
I'm just gonna pass her.
She was gonna be our little blueberry of the island.
But no, I, I'm deciding on Rosie for our blueberry.
Oh my gosh. Roald! What a cutie.
I feel like I haven't seen him in forever.
Um...
He could be like an olive on the island.
But no, I actually don't like olives at all.
So we're, we're gonna pass on that.
Oh my gosh. Well, she looks like a little pistachio,
like chocolate pistachio mouse.
Now I'm just seeing foods in villagers that, like, it's not even there.
Like she's just green with brown hair and I'm saying that she's a pistachio.
The reaches that we have to go for to get foodcore villagers these days.
Times are tough. Times are tough.
Let's see, a little squirrel. Bye bye.
We are finding so many good villagers today.
We found Jeremiah! Oh my gosh! What a cutie.
He could also be a little blueberry. He could.
Wow. What the heck? There's so many good ones today.
I'm gonna keep going.
This is straight up Hazel in koala form.
Can I just say that?
That is literally Hazel in koala form.
Okay, we've got a wolf. I forgot her name.
She's cute, but we'll leave. Okay, where is the villager?
It's always this particular island.
I swear... they're always gone. Where the heck are they?
They're not on the beach the they're gone, then there's just no villager.
Hello? Oh girl, why are you over there?
Oh my gosh, we got a cat, though! We are closer to finding Tangy.
She is so cute. I love Lolly.
I could just take any of these good villagers that we're finding
and have a good villager on the island for once.
We would be so much closer to unlocking terraforming.
But here I am passing them, waiting, hoping and praying,
and being slightly delulu that we're gonna get a foodcore villager.
And you know what's gonna happen?
We're not gonna find anyone good with these tickets
and I'm gonna auto-fill again and I'm gonna get someone bad again.
That's what's gonna happen. I know it.
I foresee it in my thoughts. That's what's gonna happen. (laughing)
I just need anyone slightly food related and I'll take them.
I was gonna say I promise, but you know what? I'm not gonna commit to that.
'Cause what if it's, like, Chops? You know?
Awe, Dizzy!
You're so cute. You are so cute.
I mean, we still have 23 tickets. We're fine. We're fine.
We could find someone foodie related in that time.
It's okay. "Elephant ears are a food"? No, that's crazy.
That's crazy. (laughing)
I do love a good elephant ear though. Ugh.
Fair food is like so good. It is so good.
If there is one thing that is going right right now as society, it's fair food.
Oh my gosh, the one that I would go to as a kid, they had grilled corn on the cob
and I swear that has set my standard for grilled corn on the cob to this day.
It was so good. It was corn on the cob, obviously.
Slathered in butter, they grill it. It's, like, charred to perfection.
Not too much, not too little.
And then they put like this seasoned Parmesan cheese on it.
Not actual Parmesan cheese, like the sawdust Parmesan cheese.
Ugh! So good. And I still think about it.
"Girl, what is sawdust Parmesan cheese?"
The, like, the powder Parmesan cheese, like the Kraft that comes in a thing.
You guys know what I'm talking about, right?
Please don't tell me this is only like a US thing or something because of course it is.
It's sawdust. This does not taste or look like cheese.
I'll put it on the screen. I've never seen this go bad.
I've never seen this get moldy.
I don't know if it's, oh, this is the sawdust Parmesan cheese.
It's literally like a powder. I mean it's good.
It's delicious. "It's made from wood pulp." No, stop.
Parmesan cheese, pasteurized part-skim milk, cheese culture, salt, enzymes,
cellulose powder, potassium sorbate to protect flavor.
What is cellulose powder? "Refined wood pulp." What?
I have this stuff in my fridge right now.
I mean it's a plant, right?
That should be fine to eat if it tastes good and I live.
What's the harm? What's the harm?
Guys, I've eaten plastic before.
I have eaten blended plastic.
I don't think wood pulp is that big a deal for my digestive tract.
I gotta be so for real.
"Not Froggy realizing her cheese is wood."
This is the first time I've ever heard about this.
What else is cellulose powder in?
The center for science in public interest says it's a type of dietary fiber
found naturally in fruits, vegetables, and cereals.
The cellulose added to processed foods usually comes from
wood pulp, in parentheses, sawdust or cotton lint.
They just put anything on the grocery store shelves and sell it to us, huh?
And we eat it 'cause it's delicious.
"It's banned in Europe, India and Japan"?
Next it's gonna be in our chicken Alfredo.
I bet it already is.
I guess I'll finish off my bottle of sawdust cheese and then switch over to normal.
'Cause what is normal anymore? Am I right?
Parmesan cheese.
At this point, anything goes, huh?
If we're talking about cheese, Parmesan cheese,
let's think about this...
What is blue cheese? Mold.
Blue cheese is literally mold and we eat that.
I'm so done with this game. I'm so done with this game.
I don't hope that they make a new one for the Switch 2,
because if it's just gonna be more of this nonsense,
don't give me another one.
You know what? No. I'm done. I'm done.
Just don't give me, I don't care anymore.
Not me spending literal days, hours, of my life looking for her.
Just try to finish off my last island. Can't find her. Can't find her.
Have to resort to getting an Amiibo.
'Cause I literally can't find her 'cause it's so impossible.
And here she is so nonchalant like it's no big deal.
Okay Alli, that's fine. Everything's so fine right now.
Our cheese is wood. Everything's fine.
We got two blue spotted villagers back to back.
I don't know what that says.
"I also slurped marker chemicals." Bestie. Are you okay?
I am getting worried.
Were they good?
If you had to eat wood or plastic? I would rather eat wood.
At least that's from the earth, in theory. At least it's natural.
This is just how I'm trying to rationalize me learning
that I've literally been eating wood dust in my cheese.
And I love to pile that Parmesan cheese on my pasta.
Like, I put a very unnecessary amount of that cheese on my pasta every single time.
Oh, who's this? Oh my gosh, it's Rattle.
Wow. Okay, that's two frogs today.
I'm just gonna go eat grass. That's all I can trust.
You know when sliced cheese,
it sometimes has like the little square piece of paper in between each slice
so they don't stick to each other.
One time I did leave that on the cheese in my sandwich
and I did take a bite of that, like, cheese paper.
Just lick the sidewalk at this point. For real. For real.
Ooh, more blue cuties! Skye is cute but not cute enough.
And not foodie enough.
"I accidentally ate frozen pizza after it was cooked with plastic on it."
Oh no. (laughing)
I just need one more villager on the island to get terraforming unlocked.
So we're just looking for a body.
I'm just gonna see if I can maybe get a food related one.
We have some dreamies.
We have, like, Tia, I wanna get Ketchup, I wanna get Tangy, I wanna get Rosie.
I might as well just get him at this point for bacon, right?
I'm just kidding.
This woman here is one of my public enemies because she does this, she does this.
She shows up on every single villager hunt.
Sometimes I get her 50 million times in a villager hunt.
I swear.
I haven't even had her on an island.
And she's a straight up enemy. (gasps) Yes, yes, yes! (laughing)
Oh my gosh. I dunno why I pulled out my axe.
I did not mean to do that. Oh, I didn't mean to do that.
I don't wanna slice up Miss Ketchup today. Let's go!
Oh my gosh. We found Miss Ketchup!
Oh, she was definitely one of the for sure dreamies of this island.
I am so surprised that we got her.
And we had nine tickets left.
See, I said when I got to 10 I would start panicking and I didn't even have to panic.
Why is she waiting for us right outside?
It's like she's trying to just ruin my day.
You can't ruin my day today, Hazel.
I found Ketchup and I am ecstatic.
The villager roster is a little bit more cleansed guys.
Let's go see what Tom and Isabelle say.
"If we can raise the image of this island and get some excellent word of mouth PR
then I'll make a proposal to K.K.
If you need help on improving the island's image, chat with Isabelle."
Well, he didn't say anything about more villagers, but we'll see if Isabelle says that.
(drum rolling) Let's see. Did that change anything? Let's see.
(gasps) Yes it did!
We have two stars! Let's go! Okay, two stars.
Two stars on Bread Tag.
"According to recent feedback,
the general sentiment is that this island lacks appealing scenery.
I think there's only one way to respond to that information.
Decorate the entire island head to toe or stream to sea."
I think that means we are good on villagers.
Now I think we just have to make as many items as we can try to get to three stars.
And then I think we get terraforming.
I'm gonna go in my storage first.
We're gonna take out all of our items.
We're gonna slap 'em on the floor.
We're gonna go see what Redd has.
We're gonna go check the shops.
We just need to place items like crazy.
I'm gonna steal everything in here. Gimme all of this.
Oh yeah, we could definitely catch bugs and fish 'cause you can place those.
And then those also count as items.
Guys, these are gonna be my foodcore builds.
I hope you like it.
This is what the island's gonna look like pretty much.
So get excited. Get excited. It's, it's so great.
Oh, hello! Can I go to his ship today?
"Breadtag wants art and I've got art to sell.
Might be something to this, but I couldn't sell to just anybody."
Yeah, we are basically cousins for sure.
Let's go take a look. I guess I'm going, okay.
Oh, nevermind. I'm not going.
We'll go grab some money first.
The recycling box has some items. I will grab those.
Free stuff. Free stuff, heck yeah. We are here at Redd's.
It's always so dark in here. I don't get it.
At least he does let us spam furniture.
So that is pretty good.
I dunno if I really want any of these. How much are they?
A thousand? Sir... That is robbery.
This is a rip off. I'm going to Nook's. Please gimme an item.
"Your dedication inspired me to get something for you."
Oh my gosh. Oh, you actually did something to help!
Thank you! Thank you!
Okay, well Nook's has some stuff, at least, for much more affordable prices.
I can't go to Redd's.
This is why you guys are getting my business right now.
I'm gonna go put down the rest of these items I just grabbed.
We'll see how we're looking.
We'll see if all of that item placement has done something or not.
Isabelle, gimme some good news, girly. Gimme some good news.
There is no good news. There is no good news.
Too many items lying around.
I feel like I don't even have stuff on the floor.
Like what's even on the floor? I don't- sticks?
Is that really such a big deal, Isabelle?
I'm gonna go grab all of the materials that are in my house
and let's do some crafting.
Let's go make some items.
Oh, it's the weeds? Ohh. That makes a lot more sense.
Isabelle wants me to be perfect. Nobody's perfect, Isabelle.
Ooh, free money. Yay! I forgot this was over here.
Well, if the weeds do count,
I can fully see why Isabelle's complaining about that.
We did a lot of good cleanup.
So now let's make some more items.
Let's put those down and see if Isabelle changes her mind.
We just need one more singular star and we're good.
Let's make so many hay- (crickets chirping)
I was gonna say, let's make so many hay beds.
Guys, I'm so ready to make hay beds.
Our crafting is coming along.
We just made a bunch of hay beds. So we are good to go.
Let's go place these now.
I'm gonna go a little bit farther just so things are spread out.
This looks like a good spot to put down some random stuff.
Let's get these log stools in here.
Let's get another log stool in here.
Wow, what a beautiful, beautiful arrangement of log stools.
What else we got?
Another log stool. Who would've guessed?
If this doesn't get me to three stars, I truly don't know what will.
I'm gonna go check on Isabelle.
I feel like after those log stools,
she probably took a look at the island, she was like, "You know what?
Yeah, this is a three star island."
No! Ugh!
I thought for sure those log stools would do it.
What do we need to do? Decorate the entire island?
Okay, I'm working on that.
She didn't say anything about items on the ground,
so I think we fixed that problem.
Let's go craft more stuff.
I guess I'll go try to put things, like, deeper back at the island too,
just so we spread it out.
This spot is empty over here. We need stuff here.
Beautiful cardboard boxes.
Beautiful. Stunning. Log garden lounge next to it. Amazing.
Look at that. A table. Oh, there's no room. That's awkward.
Oh, look at that. A table. Incredible. Incredible.
And we'll put some more over here, another table.
And up here looking pretty bare.
How would you like a cardboard box?
And how would you like another cardboard box? Amazing.
We'll check my storage and then I'm gonna go see if I can, if I have enough Miles for any fence recipe.
Oh, we could also put down this. What am I doing?
There's so many more items in here.
We're so close though. I can feel it.
I can taste it like I can taste the wood in my cheese. Parmesan cheese.
Okay, there's no stuff over here. Socks on the ground.
Beautiful design. Beautiful design.
Oh, we have a lot of Miles.
I can definitely afford something.
Okay, Tom, I know how to build a bridge and incline.
Let's just do another bridge 'cause I don't have one going to the left side.
We'll see if this helps.
I actually don't know if I have 98,000 to spend on this bridge.
Oh no. Pfft. We're rich. Just kidding.
Let's put this bad boy down. That looks perfect.
This is the spot. Here you go.
I will donate.
Now let's time travel. Let's get this built.
We'll see where our rating stands.
I really thought that would do it.
Okay, what else? Oh, fruit.
Okay, let's get some more greenery on this island by planting fruit and saplings.
I think maybe I just need flowers and trees.
I can just, I can just do that super fast.
I can do that super fast, guys.
Oh yeah. I don't have palm trees. I haven't brought any back.
Well, let's go get some flowers.
I also don't have any cedar trees. So we can plant those.
Some flowers. Let's just plant these bad boys.
I probably need more than this, but I just ran outta money.
But we'll do those and we'll do some of the cedar trees.
Hopefully that'll help. I should probably go get palm trees.
Money. Money. I need more money.
White hyacinths. Red mums.
Let's grab some yellow cosmos. Why not?
Wanna create and perfectly craft this island, so I put care and thought into this.
I really do. You know, I really do.
Let's go to a mystery island.
Let's get at the very least a palm tree and fingers crossed an orange.
Oh wait, I have oranges. Oh my gosh. We have six coconuts.
Great. And we have peaches. I'm just gonna plant everything.
This is my last attempt at trying to appease Isabelle. Okay.
And she better be grateful.
'cause these coconuts, they were not cheap.
$50,000 each.
Imported coconuts. Okay? I spoil Isabelle. What can I say?
Oh my gosh. Ketchup is already enjoying the island.
I love her. There we go. Coconuts planted.
Let's see. Did all those flowers and all those trees help?
Cross 'em?
Cross 'em. The toes. Cross 'em. This is it. This is it.
Island evals. Come on, Isabelle. I put so many trees.
Let's freaking go! Let's go. I knew it.
I knew it! I knew that would do it.
Alright, project K.K. is underway. It's underway. Let's go! (laughs)
It's not technically unlocked yet
'cause I still have to get all the permits and stuff, but, but we're close.
Great progress today, guys. Great progress today.
I'm so happy with it.
So next time we will look forward to that K.K. concert.
And grinding for Miles, I think is what's next to get all those permits.
But the island is underway. We're actually playing.
We're actually making progress. I'm so excited to continue.
Thank you so much again for joining me, for hanging out with me.
Ketchup is also gonna say bye. Thank you girly. Thank you.
Stay safe, stay hydrated and I'll see you in the next one.
Bye!
(calm music)
