I haven't opened the Venus Fly Trap yet.  I'm staying away from the city that has te fly untl it can't be avoided.  The HO scene is easier to do with less mini scenes open.

30 minutes is so long when you're doing teh same thing over and over and over.

I was trying to figure out how to get enough XP to level up (less than 1800 needed) without wasting energy.  While i was buying cheap food I got 70 gold for buying 150 food items!   I did end up wasting a bit of energy but not bad at all.  

I've decided I'm going to try for lots of special collections so I can get lots of gold and upgrade stuff and buy food, etc.  It does get pretty boring though.

I've done that stupid turtle 199 times so far.    Save some gold and next food sale, treat yourself to a spaghetti pomadoro.  Cash in your sets and upgrade your truck as soon as possible so that you can benefit from the shorter recharge time quicker. 
 

I didn't get to play a whole lot today but I own the big semi in each game and I have over 600 gold in each game.  I thought I'd buy a popcycle for +50 max energy but then I ended up buying some prawns for gold instead.  I'm doing the daily quest, the spring quests, the Flower Shop, and the Turtle game.  I played a couple of the other locations to even out my other collections but I'm not doing any of the storyline quests, I'll save those for when I'm out on the road working.  I figure I'll play one game exclusively for as long as I can, then switch over to the other game and hopefully another update will be out by then.

Tirama -- I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything when I read your last post!  I was feeling quite pleased with myself for having 25 sets of plushies! (and 7 each of the other two).  When you say your gold is now at 5000 does that count the sets you haven't redeemed as yet or is that actual in-the-bank gold?

I had to open the 3rd mini in the Flower Shop.  I got a Spring quest for it.  Well I guess I could have delayed it but since they are limited I tend to do those right a way.

After this spring thing is over I don't think I'll be playing this game ofr quite some time.  I'm strting to geel ill doing the same scene over and over and over... sorry my keyboard types very slowly and I can't see my typos...  I don't understand why they made it so easy.  It seems like they should have put the parrot in the 18 hammer game, stuff like that.  I don't like it when stuff is too easy, I like some challenge.  I'm trying to do an entire energy at the flower shop, then play enough turtles to even up.  I have around 700 gold in each game but I bought the big semis in both games the other day, so that was at least 300.  I will prooobably use most of mine for the +50/100 max energy foods,
