Thank you! Thas just what I was going for.
Usually, I make small bathrooms, but Elliot seems the sort who'd appreciate a big, fancy one.

Today I spent some time on Ginger Island. Trying to find the stupid golden coconut. I'm drowning in coconuts, so I just need to find that first one and then I can spam the island trader with my regular ones...
I swear the parrots think I'm going nuts - this weird ground-dweller that keeps shaking trees...

They've probably found it before you and hidden it somewhere well and are now amused by your desperate search...

I think that in one save I got my first golden coconut from an artifact spot shortly after setting foot on the island.
If you look up artifact spot on the wiki, it checks 3 lists for items on Ginger Island, where golden coconuts is mentioned in two places. The first instance requires you to have already cracked one, but there's no condition on the second chance for it. Though palm trees have a significantly better chance of dropping one along with the regular coconut.

I killed a really cute slime, then felt guilty about it.
Then I got the Gourmet Chef achievement by accident :D

Did not participate in the Egg Festival, thus letting my wife win the egg hunt. Too many chores to do. I did participate in the Desert Festival, even if I only went to buy stuff and get a new outfit on the last day of it as I had more than enough eggs to do so. Had some memory that the predictor wanted me to give another set of spotted headscarf/classy top/red skirt (3rd festival in a row for that combo) on day 2 and avoided it by wearing a classy top. Got a cave-person outfit instead.
Traded out a third stack from my stack chest. And once my Legend has produced enough roe to fill an entire stack, it will get ousted from its pond and get replaced with a Legend II. I'm getting tired of looking at that slow-growing stack.

I got the spring onion knowledge from Vincent and Jas. I really wish there was a way to get that in year 1, when the extra money is useful. 8 hearts is a lot, even for year 2.
I'm in year 3 now, and I really can't be bothered to go looking for spring onions during an already busy day.
Also, I got the chef at the Calico Desert festival to make me a shrimp dish, took the bus home, grabbed a seafoam pudding that I'd been gifted at some point, and rushed out to get my iridium Krobus. Now I can go deal with trash bear without making that statue even harder to reach.
I found a second auto-petter - I'd found one in the Skull caverns before, and now there was one in a mystery box. I also found an auto-grabber while doing Marlon's quest during the festival. I put that in the coop, as I think I like milking the cows for a bit, for the extra friendship.
Off to hunt for the coconut some more now.

New week. Went to the special orders board and picked up the prismatiic jelly quest. So far I've been pretty lucky with it, usually finding the slime in the first couple of days. On my way to the mines I went to Robin and asked her to build me a fish pond because of course I did. I love fish ponds.
Couldn't find the prismatic slime that day, but found that having a savage ring on is pretty nice here – I walk down from the elevator, see no slime, kill the nearest grub and have a speedy return back up.
In the later half of next day I did find and successfully slay the slime, gathered up it's jelly and right away gave it to the wizard just to get done with it and not risk forgetting. Spent the rest of the day fishing. Smoked lake fish is brings me most of my money right now. Same thing next day - more fishing. Also my wild seeds had grown. Made the forageables into more seeds, immediately after carfted some tea saplings, not as much for the money as just to reduce the number of them I have, like 1,5 stacks of summer ones in one of the chests. I'm very limited by fiber though, would be nice to get the community cleanup guest.
Since Robin was back to her shop I bought the big chest recipe, a calendar and a workbench. None are necessary, but I do like having them. I have more than enough copper and wood so upgrading a few normal chests wasn't a problem. While doing that found out that I have exactly 10 crabs (and a just built pond) so decided to get the pearl. Remembered to take care of chickens. Forgot about them for a bit, but they didn't mind.

Reached Summer of year 10. In the stack chest I traded base quality starfruit wine for the iridium quality, ensuring I have enough to age for the next couple of years. Going for red cabbage in the seasonal part of my farm crops.
I did go to the Flower Dance, just to see Abigail in a white dress, and partially because there were few enough chores that day to get there in time.

Feast of the winter star. Gave Clint an amethyst. I know he loves other gems too, but I only gift him amethysts, that feels right somehow. Same with the dwarf, he only ever gets rubies from me.
Said hi to everyone, got a blackberry cobbler from Demetrius. Went to hang out with Linus.
After I left the festival I also gave him the blackberry cobbler. Gonna think we shared it in his tent.
Next day - Clint's Birthday, he got another amethyst! What he didn't get is the courage to give it to Emily. At least he didn't ask me to do that a second time. The rest of the day was mostly chores and stuff I did because I knew I'd forget later. Same with the 27th.
On the last day of winter I went to Skull Caverns. Got my hands on two prismatic shards (5 total on this save now) and a lot more iridium than I expected. Also thought I wouldn't reach floor 100, but lucky shafts at the end proved me wrong. Mr Qi was impressed because I didn't use a single staircase. Wish I could tell him that I just like blowing stuff up. Maybe a bomb placed beside him would communicate that.
After drinking his milk I kept going, but not for long. Passed out on floor 107.

Summer Year 3 in this particular game.
Found the golden coconut, traded in a bunch of regular ones a few days later. I got a banana sapling and the skull from them, so now I have a second banana tree.
Also got a Statue of Endless Fortune. It may be a bit of a waste of money, but I like the look of it and it reminds me of birthdays.
I went into the skull cavern, found a pepper rex floor on level 7, so I spent the day going in and out of the skull cavern until I ran out of staircases. I now have 14 pepper rexes to go. I'm getting somewhere with my eradication goals.
The biggest problem is the mummies. Haven't killed a single one of them yet. I hate doing it with a regular sword and bombs, I just never get the timing right, or there will be serpents in the way that I need to run from, or I run out of cherry bombs...
I think I'm waiting to either enchant my sword with Crusader, or maybe, hopefully I can find a Holy Blade somewhere.
I think I need to buy a pig. I don't like pigs, but I need a few truffles - two for shipping, and one to get Lewis his oil. If it was just Lewis I wouldn't bother, but I do need to complete shipping. I may just sell the pig again when winter starts. The cart sometimes sells truffles, but they're more expensive than just getting the pig, usually.

Got another Extended Family quest. Caught 7-8 Legend II. Could've got more, if I hadn't been stubborn enough to complete the main chores first, and if some of them hadn't been complete yo-yos.
I'm thinking about what to do with my other barn, if I'll get rid of it, or just the pigs, as I'm getting tired of having to pick up their truffles.

I get really tired of truffles. If my pigs are in with other animals, I can never find them in the grass. On my previous farm I had a barn with only pigs, and the only grass was under the fence, so it was easier to see them. Still don't like hunting for them, though.
On my very first 1.6 farm I had a truffle crab. I'd never seen one before, and haven't seen one since...

I had a truffle crab just yesterday. Second one in about 10 years on this farm. With 0.2% chance of a truffle being a truffle crab, it's not surprising.

I get tired of truffles too. Even if they're in plain sight, when I'm running past I don't want them to take up inventory space or run to the shipping bin or the closest chest. So I just leave them there in hopes that I remember to pick them up when I have nothing to do. Preferably before the season changes and they despawn.

Spring 1 Y2. Was greeted by Kent, then Marlon because I have a slime hutch now. I really like that cutscene with Marlon for some reason.
Sorted out my inventory from the cavern dive and spent the whole day planting rice shoots (hopefully I won't forget about thode with how many I've planted), mixed seeds + just random ones I'd gotten from the traveling cart. Somehow I had exactly 60 normal mixed seeds and 60 mixed flower ones. Fun.
While planting I realized that fiber seeds might not be as good as I thought since they need mixed seeds and sap, both of which I don't have a lot of to spare. Close to none even.
Harvested my mushroom logs. Still don't have the dehydrator recipe since it's too expensive and I have one from picking the mushroom cave. It was actually the reason I chose it, I foget to check the cave itself so it's not too useful. Dried chanterelles do bring some good income, even one a day.
Placed the slime egg in the incubator. I'm planning to have a lot of slimes on this farm, both in the hutch, the farhouse and outdoors.
Next day I didn't feel like fishing and couldn't find anything better to do, so I just went around giving everyone I see an eggplant. I just had a lot of those and most NPCs like them. Read some books in the library. Usually I don't bother, only reading if I accidentally open one, but there's some interesting stuff ik there.
Remembered about the weekly orders - community cleanup was the better option even if I did decide against making fiber seeds for now.
Another thing I remembered about is my coop. The chickens laid out this pattern, does anyone know what it means?
