Something I’m giggling about and feel like I must share: we have rice in hyrule, as well as fish, could sushi be a thing? Like sashimi could be but is there a Zelda version of nori the sea weed that is the key thing of a sushi roll.

I’m bringing this up do you you saying your headconing cranberries are a thing in hyrule which I like, so what about things like pasta or stuff like sushi. I seen so much fanart of Zelda characters eating foods not in canon game like ramen

As rito specialize in stuff with wheat like baked goods or stews which makes sense they live in a frosty area and their stores mostly have baking stuff

The zora specialize in fish due to being water dwellers they have some spices stuff but mostly fish is in their stores

Gorons specialize in mostly mining due to they eat rocks, but their store shows they have stuff like their goron spice, sugar basically stuff that can be grounded up and put on a meal

Then there is the geurdo who specialize in basically everything like their market place has: mushrooms, cooked meat, stuff to make meals with like rice and wheat and rock salt, fruit even a lady at the bazar has lizalfos tails (feel like she’ll feel guilty on that one in your headcons)

Now here’s why I was giggling imagine now what would the monster tribes villages specialize in making for their stores for people to buy? Or would they be like the gorons and specialize in their own seasonings? Or be like the gerudo and have basically a random selection on many ingredients or would they make a first thing product hyrule never had before? Like noodles, or nori, or recipes like tempura by frying stuff with oil coated with a breading of flour and goron spice (I was sad they didn’t have that as a meal recipe in totk)

This is just one of those things as I was giggling about how you plans on things post botw and totk for the malice free monsters as I can’t wait to see what happens

I always love worldbuilding exercises like this because, looking at our real world for influence, a lot of food that we take for granted has very rich and detailed origins.

It's interesting because Japan's invention of sushi came from the fact that they used rice vinegar to ferment fish and keep it fresh, but then starting eating the rice fermented with it they'd otherwise throw out.

While sushi in our current day is usually flash-frozen to kill any parasites, I've shown Lizalfos as one of the species that can just eat fish raw with little problems. Lizalfos, at least non-elemental ones, also seem to be native to more wetlands areas of Hyrule. Their big encampment in Lanayru being a good example.

This would create something of a perfect storm of circumstances where Lizalfos' main crop they would grow would be rice because the environment there lets rice thrive, and their diet mainly consists of fish. So I can absolutely see them "inventing" sushi through that.

Anyways this is just reminding me of how Uncle Iroh invented Boba Tea in the ATLA world, so I absolutely wanna try something like that LMAO

And now, for something a little different: A Modder Spotlight?

Now, I use many many mods, and there are several I love and could not do without, but one modder in particular has gone a bit wild lately with all her mods, and I am loving every moment of it, and I just wanted to give her some love and attention and possibly introduce new people to her mods.

The modder is Wildflour, who’s been making a lot of mods focused on cute crops and artisan goods. (art is taken directly from the mod pages)

The first mod on the list here is Wild Food.

It adds a bunch of new forage-able items, many of which can be put through a seed maker to get seeds to grow them yourself. Also special mushrooms that can be processed into goods like milk, eggs, sugar, honey, and wheat, as a lite early-game (and vegan) source of those goods. The new crops all have uses in many of her other mods.

---

Next up is the Gourmet Pantry.

This mod allows the creation of many processed ingredients, such as specialty flours, dairy products like butter and yoghurt, nut butters, and more. This is mostly to be used in conjunction with cooking mods, but most of the products are profitable on their own, and are liked and loved by NPCs.

---

And if you’re getting the pantry, you might as well get the Bakery Recipes to use a bunch of the new ingredients.

The below picture is just a small sample of what’s added by the mod. Pies, tarts, cookies, the list goes on. Over 100 new sweets to make in the kitchen. Warning: This mod WILL make you hungry (makes me hungry anyway).

---

But there’s more to these recipes than just baked goods. The game allows for making simple jellies in the preserves jar, but with the Specialty Jams and Jellies mod, you can now make even more.

Make jams, jellies, and preserves out of fruits and flowers, even some very expensive novelty ones using seasonal ingredients.

---

If you like being able to make a large variety of wines, but feel like other beverages get a little neglected, you might like Specialty Ales and Meads.

Combine fruit with honey and hops in special kegs to create fruity varieties of ale and mead.

---

Now we get into the Atelier series, mods for making specific types of artisan goods. Starting with the Tea Pack.

Use the new type of tea leaf added by the wild food mod to create a variety of specialty teas. Gift or sell them in bag form, or take the extra time to brew them into cute drinks.

---

And to keep things equal, there’s also a Coffee Pack!

Same as the tea pack, specialty coffees can be kept in bag form, or brewed into actual drinks.

---

Drinks aren’t all this series offers though. Satisfy your sweet tooth with the Candy Pack!

Use the new confection machine to make marshmallows, lollipops, and specialty chocolate bars, or even put sugar in a loom to make cotton candy.

---

And last in the Atelier series for now is the Floral Pack.

Great if you want to play as a florist, or just have more to do with flowers in general. Make soaps, perfumes, candles, bouquets, potpourri.

---

Last on this list (but not the last of Wildflour’s mods so be sure to take a look) is Pixie Forage.

This mod that adds a bunch of new, whimsical crops has yet to see much integration with her other mods, but it’s still a delight to have on its own. It adds many cute, magical trees that grow fruits and flowers, and a recent update added a colorful variety of grapes and wheats (which can be turned into specialty flours with the gourmet pantry).

She’s still working on new mods to add to this collection, as well as updating the existing ones, so definitely a modder to watch if you love this sort of thing (which I do).

🌞🧹🌻Hearth Witch Tips!🌻🧹🌞

04: Your kitchen eats with you!

Just like with the rest of the house, what you put into the kitchen also heavily affects its energy. When you treat the hearth in certain ways, it reacts in certain ways. Your relationship with any room in the house is give-and-take. That means that if you don’t give back occasionally, the room will grow cold and stop appreciating your presence. But there are plenty of ways to mend your relationship! And the first step is to identify the problem!

From my experience, there are three main reasons why the kitchen stops being a warm and inviting place: 1) You are filling the cupboards with too much toxic, processed foods; 2) You aren’t spending enough time in that room; 3) Or you aren’t keeping the room clean enough.

When there’s a problem in the hearth, it’s always either one of these things or some combination of them. We’ll start with number three since it’s the easiest to explain. The kitchen should be anyone’s top priority to keep clean. It’s where all of your food, the nutrition and fuel of your physical and spiritual bodies, comes from! What you eat is your first defense against illness, injury, and your mental health. If the kitchen is filthy, then the food you take into your body will also begin to develop the same properties.

To keep the kitchen clean, I always start my day by washing last night’s dishes and give the counters a quick wipe. Once a month, I take stock of what’s in the fridge and freezer and scrub them out to prevent bacteria build-up. Sweeping the kitchen floors happens once a week and takes me all of three minutes to complete, tops. Once per season, normally at the beginning, I scrub the floors with soap and water, descale the coffee maker, wipe down the other appliances, and clean out the cupboards. So the only true “cleaning days” for the kitchen is four days out of the entire year. The rest of the time, the chores only take me about 30 minutes. As a quick tip, rinsing your dishes before setting them in the sink speeds up the dish washing process a ton! I’ve personally never trusted dishwashers since they don’t clean stuff well enough and it’s easier, faster, and far more cost effective to do it by hand.

The next problem the kitchen’s energy might be suffering from is how much time you’re spending there. First, spending a lot of time in the kitchen is a great thing! It absorbs the energy you feed to it, so when you don’t go in the kitchen very often or just don’t spend much time in there to begin with, the kitchen grows darker and colder. It loses the warmth and emotion and love that would’ve been sinking into it when you aren’t there.

The way to fix this problem is actually really easy! Cooking your own meals ensures that you are in there for a good amount of time each day because of the prep work and meal planning, etc. Plus, you get healthier, tastier food that way too! If you can’t cook all that well yet, don’t worry! Just like any skill, there’s no talent involved in learning something. It just depends on how much effort you apply to it. Another way to boost the hearth’s energy is to just hang out in that room. Invite some friends over, set out a snack tray, and just chill in the kitchen. Of course, since it’s pandemic right now, it’s best to wait until that’s over with to try this approach. But you, yourself, can still hang out in the kitchen!

The last problem, and a very, very common one in this day and age, is the influence of toxic food. Just like how your house absorbs energy from the land its on and what its built with, the kitchen also absorbs energy from the ingredients you keep within it. Toxic foods include anything processed or with a bunch of added sugars, and even GMO ingredients to some extent due to the trace chemicals that are still on the crops. These kinds of foods, if that’s the only thing in your house, will rot the energy. Not to mention, easy to grab snacks also end up causing you to spend a lot less time in the kitchen if that’s all you eat. Needless to say, no one eats healthy all the time. I don’t either! But having only toxic food in your kitchen isn’t great for you or the hearth.

Once again, cooking comes to the rescue! Even if you’re bad at it, it’s the thought that counts and little by little, as your skills grow and improve, the kitchen will learn to help guide you. There have been many times where I’d be stuck on how to fix something and a bottle of spice would fall of the shelf right next to me. If you listen to the kitchen, it will listen to you, too! Even if you don’t have time to cook, snacks like apples, berries, seeds, nuts, and dried meats are all healthy alternatives! I usually keep kale chips in the house for some yummy, salty crunchiness!

------------------------------

If you are worried about cost with this approach (believe me, due to my own situation it’s been a struggle at times), I’ve found out several tips and tricks to significantly lower the grocery bill. Anymore, my bill would actually be bigger if I bought crap food instead! Here’s my advice:

☀ Plan your week ahead! I always plan four meals a week that I’ll cook, and three days that I’ll scavenge for snacks and leftovers. I also stick to the rule of “one simple, one chicken, one meatless, one freebie” to remain more cost effective! The “simple” meal is just something I can make quickly if I know I’ll be short on time. The reason for have one of the meals be chicken is because it’s a much less expensive meat than beef or pork, and it’s a little better for the environment. The meatless meal is for the same reasoning. Meat is expensive and commercial brands are horrible for both the environment and the animals themselves. When I do buy meat, I make sure to buy local, grass-fed, organic meat as often as I can afford to. Keep in mind that every time you purchase anything, you are casting your vote for what is acceptable for society to continue. The “freebie” meal is just whatever I’ve been craving. If I want some kind of beef, I wait until this day.

☀ Learn to bake your own bread! For those of us with the time, this is a great way to save money and to stay healthy! Basic, white bread is actually pretty easy to make and only uses a couple ingredients. Those ingredients also go a long way. It costs me about 24¢ to make one loaf of bread because things like flour, sugar, salt, butter, honey, and yeast are all things that you buy once and can use for several loaves before you have to buy them again! It’s also not as time consuming as you’d think. Yes, it takes about 2 hours, but most of that time is proofing so you can easily be running around doing other things in between.

☀ Grow a garden! Even if it’s just a small, window herb garden, it can take the edge off of your overall food cost. Portobello mushrooms are also super easy to grow inside with minimal effort and equipment. If you have outdoor space, planting a small garden with the ingredients you use the most can help immensely!

☀ Only buy what you need! I know those sales look crazy tempting, but most of them are actually bogus and don’t actually save you any money. Think about what you are actually going to use before it goes bad and stick to your list. The bottom shelves at the store, aka the ones not in your direct line of sight, are usually where the grocery stores hide the better priced goods. At the back of most stores that have bakeries, there’s also usually a spot to get baked goods left over from the previous day for a slightly cheaper price. Day-old baked novelties like bread, cookies, and cakes are still perfectly good, and much easier to enjoy where you don’t have to spend as much!

☀ Check what’s already in your fridge before making your list! This is a huge one, since it prevents food waste, which in turn prevents money waste! What can you make during this week that can use up some of the ingredients leftover from last week? You’ll be impressed how quickly your food cost drops when you aren’t throwing things away. Waste not, want not! This trick also applies in another way, as well. When making your weekly meal plans, what types of foods use similar ingredients? If one meal calls for a slightly pricier ingredient, what other food can you cook with that ingredient to make the cost worth it? This also ensures that you get full use of things without wasting them. For example, this week I bought some fresh mozzarella cheese. Because this item is a little more expensive, I’m using it to make both the tomato mozzarella sandwiches and the beef wellingtons I’m making this week!

☀ Buy mostly produce! One of the best ways to lower your bill while still eating healthy is to simply add more fruits and veggies into your diet! There are so many tasty recipes that call for these babies that you’ll never run out of options, and there’s several things out there for everyone! Because I deal with sensory issues, I had to experiment a lot with what textures and tastes I could handle, especially on the bad days, but even still I found an over-abundance of things I love to eat. Fresh produce is way less expensive than meat, and much less expensive than many of the more mainstream snacks like chips or other processed foods.

------------------------------ All in all, taking care of your kitchen will also end up taking care of you, as well! Spending time there, actually using the kitchen the way it’s supposed to be, and just keeping it clean can work wonders in opening up your home and making it ten times warmer and more inviting! Trust me, your health and home will thank you for it!

One Year of Eating Locally Challenge

This post contains affiliate links. When you click on one of the links and make a purchase, we receive a small monetary compensation at no extra cost to you. Thank you for supporting Cobble Hill Farm!

Last year I wanted to try to switch to primarily eating local, in-season, meals. Unfortunately, I was just so busy splitting my time between my "day" job and our business, that it felt too overwhelming to try and start something new. But, with May's change your life challenge of getting out of your comfort zone, it's time. Some of you may be asking why and I wanted to give a bit of background on this. I don't see myself as frugal, although I would like to be and strive to be, in many aspects of my life. One of those areas is groceries. I previously shared with you that years ago, when I discovered the concept of meal planning, I also discovered it was a great way to help reduce grocery cost. And it is! Then, we went to a one-income household and I decided to challenge myself in reducing our food costs to $60.00 a week (dividing the annual cost by 52 weeks so that $60.00 is the average) as a means of ensuring financial success. Because that was a bit tighter than we liked, we then moved the bar to keeping our food costs under $100.00/week. And now I've set a new goal. Eating primarily locally grown and raised ingredients.

First was the book by Barbara Kingsolver, Animal, Vegetable, Miracle, which I read a few years ago. Then were the videos such as Food, Inc. I just finished the book Blessing The Hands That Feed Us, by Vicki Robin. In that book she referred to an article written by Rebecca Thistlewaite titled: Do You Have The Balls To Really Change The Food System? All of this has made me think. For so many reasons it just makes sense to try and buy as much from local farmers as possible. Some of them include:

To help maintain farmland (and green/open space) in your own community. If farms can't survive, the land may become strip malls, apartment buildings or developments. Purchasing directly from a farmer, rather than a faceless mega store, makes you think about and appreciate farmland. It's no longer invisible and someone else's responsibility.

To eat fresher food. Local food spends less time in transit (it's usually picked the day of distribution and transported to a local farmers market or CSA drop-off) AND you're eating what's in season for your area.

To reduce oil consumption. According to Dawn Gifford of Small Footprint Family, if every U.S. Citizen ate just one meal a week composed entirely of locally and organically raised produce and grass-fed meats, eggs or dairy, we could reduce our country's oil consumption by over 1.1 million barrels of oil every week.

To strengthen your community by supporting your local farmers.

To eat food that is likely safer. It's provided by farmers you can meet, in conditions you can see for yourself. The safety of food continues to be a concern and I believe will only get worse. There's the worry of what is being put on/in the food itself to help it last in transit and look good, as well as the worry about salmonella or other dangerous bacteria coming into contact with your food and making you and your family sick.

To vote with your dollars and support humanely raised animals. If you're not vegetarian, taking a stance against the industrial production of meat.

There's also the concern about our current food system eventually collapsing. Vicki Robin says this about relational eating (eating locally and, therefore, forming a relationship with those who you purchase food from rather than it being a faceless producer): Relational eating, being an "eater-in-community," can settle our fears about being fed on every level. When you have no relationship with food other than the megamart, you seem well supplied but are helpless without that store. When you stand in the middle of a living food system, growing some, trading some, buying some local and some from afar, you have more power to assure that you are fed - and fed well. Relational eating doesn't necessarily mean local food, it means that you, the eater, understand your place in the world. Yes, I currently shop at the farmer's market, seek out local meats when I can and choose meals made with local ingredients, if offered, from the restaurants menus. But it's not enough. I'm not making it a point to buy as much as I can locally and then the remainder from other sources. So that, my friends, is what I'm going to challenge myself to do. I have no idea what this will cost us. Yes, food produced by local farmers certainly costs more than buying that which is industrialized. Once we raised chickens for meat for the first time ourselves, we certainly had a very good understanding of the costs. For those of you who grow a garden and deal with the planting, weeding, watering and lost crops, you understand the expense of fruit and veggies. The fees associated with certification and licensing can be enormous for small farms. All of this goes into what it costs to produce the food they bring to market. But I also believe that if food is cheap, it makes it much easier to justify waste. According to Jonathan Bloom, author of American Wasteland: "we don't eat 25% of the food we buy. We throw away $2,200 each year in uneaten food, from spoilage and plate waste". I can see how this is true - I have certainly noticed this with our own food patterns. Eating locally, to me, is as much about supporting our local farmers which is investing more dollars in our local food system as it is about lessening the amount we spend to fund the industrial systems we don't agree with. It's voting with our dollars and every single person can make a small difference. By not purchasing ground burger, for instance, from the grocery store, and instead from a local farmer, you are choosing not to fund inhumane treatment of farm animals and the practice of adding pink slime (a slaughter byproduct added to some ground beef) to your meat. Does that mean we will eat 100% locally? Nope. There's too much that we choose to consume that is just not available and/or can't be grown or produced here. I like rolled oats for breakfast, rice with my meals, citrus fruit, bananas in my smoothies, coffee every single day, coconut milk as a non-dairy creamer, etc. My goal is this: To continue raising and growing what we can. What we can't grow or raise, to purchase all of our food items locally, regardless of cost, first and then look to the rest with an eye out for regional items and fair trade, where applicable. This will absolutely change the way I plan menus as we still have a budget that I would like to stay in. It will likely include cutting down on meat and/or reducing the amount in a meal which will not go over well with my meat-and-potatoes-loving husband.....

Some of the items I know we can find locally year-round include: - Fruits & Veggies - Meat - Seafood (it's regional not local as it's from the southern part of the state) - Honey - Maple Syrup - Milk and milk products - Cheese (cow, sheep and goat) - Dried Beans - Mushrooms - Jams/Jellies and other preserved foods I'll share with you what we purchase locally, the costs, and our meal plans.

Eating locally goes hand-in-hand with eating real foods. Thankfully, we do this, for the most part, on a daily basis. As you know, I make most things from scratch so this is one transition that won't need to happen. How about you? Have you ever tried to purchase the majority of your food locally? Have you ever challenged yourself to eat, even for a week, what you can get at your local farmers markets? I certainly anticipate some challenges in trying to eat primarily local grown/raised. One is trying to create recipes that don't use exotic or out of season ingredients. Another is trying to find many ways to use the little variety available in winter and spring. And lastly, thinking ahead to buy extra fruit and veggies that can be preserved to eat later on in the year when we need options. I also have no idea if it will be more expensive compared to what we've been typically spending. I will share it all here.

How about you - have you tried eating locally? If so, what were some of your challenges?

Genre: Action, Adventure Developer: Namco Publisher: SVG Distribution ESRB Rating: Everyone Release Date: March 17, 2004

Hints

Frozen Baby

Bring your son to the place where you link. Put iton the right side on the shadow and it willfreeze. You cannot pick it up or do anything else.It can still move normally as if you were pressingX, but it cannot walk around and you cannot pickit up. Your wife will have to pick it up when itis its bedtime so you do not have to worry losingit. It will also return to normal if you reset.

The Horse Races

On the day of the horse races, save, then go to the races. Remeber all the winners, restart, and bid 99 on all the winners to get lots of medals. If you’ve taken good care of your horse, bid on him and you can win alot of medals.

Change Weather

If it is raining or there is a hurricane, enter the mine and dig. After you are done, the rain or hurricane will be over.

Fishy Cash

Need some cash NOW? Well I have figured out a way to do that! You know the digging site up by the waterfall? Go buy a fishing pole from Van and go fishing there! The different kind of fish are:

~Namame~Big Namame~Huchep~Big Huchep~Yamame~Big Yamame~And anything else that floats by!

The fish that you get here are worth, LOADS OF CASH! (Note) Remember to fish right by where the waterfall starts, that’s where all the fish are, and fish right beside the dig site, not on the other side of the river!

Grade A Milk

Do you want to make fast cash? Well here’s the solution for you! Don’t you hate when you get grade B milk? Well here’s a way to get grade A milk from now on! Make sure to talk to you cow everyday, just to see how there doing. If you don’t then they start to feel disowned. You can also buy a brush and brush the cattle everyday. You can also press the Y button while near their head to “love” them.

See Nina Again

After you get married, sadly, Nina dies. But if you go to Gallen’s house about 6:00 A.M., you can help polish her grave. If you do, Nina’s spirit, ghost, or whatever call it, will appear smiling.

Get Muffy By Summer The 1st

To get Muffy, give her flowers every day, and talk to her. One thing you should not do is when she asks you “What are you here for” do not say to see you, she will get embarrassed, say to talk (or to chat). If you keep this up, you will get 4 hearts and engaged by summer 1st. You will find her diary in the bouquet of flowers in the Blue Bar.

A Valuable Mushroom

Okay, in fall, you see a slim, and tall mushroom behind Vesta’s farm. It is called a Matsutake (forgive me if I spelled this wrong). Do not eat it!!! You only get 2 a year so don’t eat it! It is worth 100G. So that’s an easy 200G. So do not eat it because it is valuable.

Money Every Month

First buy a boy and a girl chicken.Then put the fetilised eggs in the encuvator. When the chicks grow to be an adult, sell them. You get alot of 450g Monthly. (or twice a Month depending on what day it is).

Free Seed Maker

You know Daral. In the first year at 10:00-12:00he will say they stole my idea and he will give it to you.

Racoon In The Distance

If you go to Vesta’s ranch in the early fall, go to the upper right corner of the ranch and you will see a racoon walking around. This hint might work any time of the year.

S Rank Crops

Once you are in chapter 3 go to Takuros house at 5:00-10:00pm and he will show you his new plant. It has two heads and talks, every day talk to him and if he asks you a qustion always answer politely. Eventualy he will ask you if you need some thing and the word hybrid will apear as an option. Click it and select 1 crop or seed and mix it wiyh an upseed flower after clicking hybrid. When he returns the item it will be an S rank crop and the flower will be gone.

Play With The Pyros

The 2 protecnitionists live in what looks like a water tower. Its between the trailor home and blue bar. Go in it via the rope hanging from the “water tower”. Once inside talk to 1 of the pyrotecnitionists (if home) and they will ask you if you want to play a game.

Sashimi Those Cheap Fish!

You don’t have to settle for selling Van the cheaper fish. Cook them into Sashimi and you get 150G per fish! There are certain fish you don’t want to make into Sashimi, however. These are: Arna, Big Arna,Yamame, Big Yamame, Sharshark, Big Sharshark, Big Rainbob and Big Huchep. The regular Rainbob and Huchep should be made into Sashimi.

Steady Money

Buy chickens and a fishing pole. Get as many hensas possiable raise them eventully they will givegolden eggs($300). Catch Fish biggest $1000. Takeout 99 fodder sell them to van there you have it$990 G.

Haggler!

When you buy things that are expensive from Van, do you ever wonder if you can get it for a better price? You can! Just haggle with him if it is expensive. For example if you want to buy a teddy bear that Van may be selling, go to Van and when available click the “Discount?” option, keep at it until both you and Van are happy with the price!

Food Procesing Room

This room is 30,000g. If you buy it, then you will have a good imcome. You can make butter & cheese in this new place. It will help you out with recipes and different meals.

Help With Nami

Are you having trouble getting Nami to fall for you? Well, once you get the Blue Feather, go to Celia and Muffy and when they ask “Are you serious?” say No and break both of their hearts. By the end of the first year, Nami usually will purpose to you herself. But don’t use the Blue Feather on her, though, unless she has 4 hearts. But if she has 4 hearts, why would you be doing this to poor Celia and Muffy?

Change Chicken Gender

This trick only works for a hatching chicken. Do not save the game until you get the gender of chicken that you want. After the chick hatches, reset or turn off the Gamecube. The chick might change to male or female. Note: This may require a few attempts.

Digging Up Things

Digging for treasure at the excavation site is another way to make some extra money. Catch Carter between 9:00am and 5:00pm to start digging. Go over each square a few times to find some treasure. At the end of each digging day Carter will look over what you’ve found. He’ll swipe anything that he thinks is valuable and leave you with the rest. You can either sell your treasure to Van, sell it yourself, or give it away.

Buying Cattle

When you have saved up your gold and want to get a new cow you should consider the following: Normal cows are not too much 2 buy and don’t sell milk very high. If you get a female Star cow then you will be fine. The star cow will produce grade A milk and it is worth 405G. WOW!! The grade S is even greater, it is 540G. So you should think about it. =)

Milking 4 Money

After a few years of raising cattle you’ll have enough money to buy a Milk Processing room. It costs 60,000G, but is worth every piece of gold. The Milking room makes milking so much easier, it’s automatic! You’ll need to show your cows where to go by pushing them into the building a few times and from then on they will go in themselves to be milked.

Easy Money

First, buy the banana tree (1,500G). Then, get the seed maker (6,000G). In year 2, the banana tree should be full grown. Get 15 bananas and put them in the seed maker. You should get 30 seeds, which sell for 750G each. Sell these to Van for a grand total of 22,500G.

That’s Good Food

To make food you first need to get the recipe. You can find recipes in every house. One of the most important resipes that you’ll need is the curry resipe. To get it you must become friends with Ruby(she likes potatoes). After you have your recpie you go to your kitchen to make the food, and that is how you make your food.

Breeding

If you want to bread your cow don’t buy a male because the male is too young. If you still want a new calf get a miricle potion from another farm.

Timing Is Everything

To get the blue feather to give to your favorite girl you just go to the spring and eat one of the red and white mushrooms to see the Harvest Sprites, but you can only get the blue feather in the first summer.

Horse Race

Save the game, then go to the horse race. Do not bet yet. Make a note of the winners, then reset the game. Load the saved game, then bet 99 on the winners. You can get a lot of medals. Also, if you are competing, bet on yourself if you take extremely good care of your horse. If you win, you will get a lot of medals.
