On my current file, I reeled in a treasure chest on Spring 4, Year 1. That was an instant 5,000g, making for possibly the smoothest early game I've ever had.

The luckiest encounter for me was receiving the most helpful gift at the winter festival,
Jodi was my secret Santa.
She gave me the most helpful gift I never thought I was going to have,
It was my first SV play and first Winter Festival, and I remembered I needed to make a plan to cut so many trees to make mini torches to visit level 30s. – I was a total beginner and a noob.
At the Winter Festival, Jodi gave me a "glow ring."
Yes, I am so happy that I did not need to cut down the trees.
It's better than working too hard.......

On my first and second accounts, I got a Dino Egg from fishing before I even had a Big Coop. On my current account, I had two Prismatic Shards before I'd even reached the bottom of the Mines.
But my luckiest encounter?
That was discovering Stardew Valley. I didn't even want to buy it, my mum did! Guess which one of us has more hours now...

This just reminded me. I got a Small Glow Ring from a crate on my very first trip to the Mines. So useful!
Also, has anybody actually got the Tea Set from the Feast of the Winter Star? I feel like it could be a little less rare, or maybe there could be another way of getting it. I really want one (or twelve) to decorate with!

After 15 years on 3 farms in the valley, Demetrius gave me a tea set my 1st year on my beach farm! I was so excited. It sat on the kitchen table until I built a tea house where the tea set has a place of honor. It’s embarrassing how much I love that pixelated tea pot.

I've got it! On the 6th year of my main farm, I think.

Oh yeah, big giant +1 for that. I was watching a YT'er who had a series playing it but never clicked on any of those vids. And kept seeing more and more references to the game, but had zero inclination of what it was all about. The Universe was gently tapping me on the shoulder when it should have been whomping me upside the head with a watermelon.
Then one day I needed something very different. I don't remember why I needed that (which is probably a good thing) but I remembered the feeling the screencaps evoked, so bought it at GOG based on... what it looked like. Didn't even read a review.
And started playing.
Yeah, I've never obsessively played or even done anything like I did SDV during the following weeks and months.
Maybe I'll just stay with the Small Glow Ring...

My first ever solo save I got the tea set year 1 from Pierre (I still remember who gave it to me), and this save has been lost to time. Since my first ever Feast of the Winter Star I have seen over 20 more Feasts of the Winter Star (nearing 30) between that save, 3 multi saves with @Cuusardo and 3 more solo saves... and I have yet to receive even 1 more tea set.
The more I think about it, the more I think the tea set is seriously the most valuable, rarest item in game.

On 1 file I got a prismatic shard very early in year 1 from a omni geode. Not positive, but it may have been summer. After that I got another 1 early winter from a mystic stone. That was 2 in my first year. All my other games I didn't get my first one until year 2.

Forgive my ignorance.....I threw all 3 teacup sets in the TRASH......I keep getting these gifts every Winter Star....
Well, I had more than 3 tea sets.....from Pierre, Penny and not sure who...
I thought Pierre was being stingy.
Penny, on the other hand, I forgive her because of her financial issue...
I thought it was cheap, I did not know It was special.......

One of my luckiest was cutting weeds in Cindersap, found the secret note about Leah wanting a poppyseed muffin. It was on the day of the traveling cart and the merchant had a muffin for sale. All while Leah was on the dock at the forest lake! It seemed meant to be, I married her.

What! That is so unfair. Almost like that maze you designed. That was pretty evil. I was very impressed
