Strategies for Completing the Missions
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
This is one of the first Missions/Quests that focuses on the Beauty Shop. You do not need energy or Power to craft Items in the Beauty Shop but you will need a completed Beauty Shop if you wish to perform all the tasks without paying RC to skip them. The Beauty Shop is an attractive building and although it cannot be sold or stored once it is placed, it will add to the aesthetic beauty of your Farm.
Extra slots can be added to the Beauty Shop in the same way that they can be added to the Seafood House. Request materials from your Neighbours if you wish to add slots.
As always, some of the ingredients for the Recipes needed to complete Tasks in this Mission are themselves Cooked Dishes. For example, you will need 10 Udon to make the Mixed Noodles in Mud Festival IV. You have a default of 30 Power. Make the Udon in advance if you can to make certain that you have sufficient Power later when you reach Mud Festival IV. Other 'Ingredients' that are in themselves Recipes include Egg Tart for use in Chocolate Pave and Blueberry Krispy Bars for use in making Chocolate Dream Bars. You will need 10 of each.
In fact, the Chocolate Pave is the third in a series of three Recipes. You need to make Eggnog first in order to make Egg Tart. Eggnog is made with Condensed Milk and an Egg. Condensed Milk is another Kitchen Recipe, one of those I consider a 'staple' and try to make on a regular basis for future use. Egg Tart is made with Eggnog and Soft Dough, another 'staple' Recipe. What this means, in effect, is that you need 30 Power to make 10 Egg Tarts unless you have made the Eggnog and Soft Dough in advance. This is a good illustration of the wisdom of preparing a list of staple 'ingredients' in advance of any time-restricted Quest. You always will find a use for them at some point, so never sell those Dishes!
Unfortunately, Chocolate Pave is one of the Dishes used in the first Round of the Cooking Stand that was released yesterday. If I had known that the Dish would be featured in a time-restricted Quest today, I would not have made so many, using up much of my stock of Egg Tarts!
There are other Ingredients that are made in Machines. You will need a KimChi Machine to make Cucumber KimChi for Mud Festival IV. Another Ingredient is Ketchup, made in the Sauce Machine. 60 Sugar will be needed for the final task in the traditional Quest sequence to produce Candy. Animal Products needed for Recipes include Turkey and Beef. Make certain that you have these in stock in advance if possible.
As always, it is a good idea to focus on the Collections Mission first in order to obtain the Rewards as these are needed to complete Tasks in the Mud Festival Mission. At present, it is not possible to purchase the Chili Pepper Bush or the Persimmon Tree in the Market. Whether or not they will become available within the next 11 Days before the end of this Mission is unknown. At this point in time, the only way to obtain Chili Peppers is either to complete the Collections Mission so that you can place the Bush on your farm or purchase the Chili Peppers needed for the Recipes.
Mud Festival V requires placement of the Yacht Decoration. Mud Festival VI requires placement of the Chili Bush. To skip these Tasks is expensive and counter-productive really. In this case, as the Chili Bush produces 1 Chili every 4 Hours, it would be better to use a Super Watering Can to hasten the harvest instead of buying a Chili Pepper for each Dish made in the Kitchen. In situations where the Reward is a 'Collectable' like the Herb Garden, you cannot speed production, but harvest from any Tree can be made instantaneous by using a Super Watering Can.

History of the Boryeong Mud Festival
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Unlike most of the other Festivals showcased in Seaside's Time-Restricted Quests or Missions, the Korean Mud Festival is not an old one. The first Festival was held in 1998 as a way to attract attention to the cosmetics industry in Korea. The mud in Boryeong is very rich in mineratls and is used for a wide range of cosmetics.
The mud is taken from the Boryeong mud flats and then transported to the beach area of Daecheon for the purpose of the Festival which is held in the summer season and continues for a fortnight. Mud pools, slides, a mud prison and ski slopes made of mud are erected. The festival was designed to attract foreigners and indeed has been very successful.
