By the way, I managed to get my hands on another copy of NL. So I will be using it to cycle as well.. it's a used copy and the existing town on it actually has two of my fiancee's dream villagers on it (Sterling and Julian) so won't be starting until those guys are in her town.
Also, if you're still interested in making those fried dumplings, I have spent several days tweaking with the original (bland) recipe, so ask if you're gonna try it
DUUUUUDE! I'm totally making them this week. Going grocery shopping either tomorrow or Monday, and having them with something Asian inspired. I was thinking: ground pork, soy, sesame oil, ground ginger, green onions. But, I feel like it might be missing something. Maybe rice wine vinegar? I dunno. Let me know!
