Stamina, Mining and other things

So I've had this game for a while and just picked it up three days ago now that I'm done school. I am trying to make money, as I never seem to have more than 20k (I have been upgrading roads and building bridges, still need the Jungle Bridge though) I'm in early Fall of my first year, and I've yet to encounter Wonderfuls or get earrings or pendants. I try to go into the mine and reach level 50 where the Orachles show up, but all the herbs in the world can't keep my stamina high enough to survive to reach the level where I need the stone to GET more stamina..

If anyone has any helpful tips/ideas for keeping up my stamina long enough or money making tips in general, that'd be awesome and greatly appreciated.

Herbs probably wont take you far enough - you should try and get a kitchen and some animals so you can make puddings, which recover alot of stamina. Also save on each floor, find the stairs, re-load, dig exactly where the stairs were and go down them. This saves stamina. Also avoid holes in the mine as some could drain all your stamina. Save alot during mining trips, until you have pendants and stuff.

Wonderfuls can be found by winning contests and at Chen's shop occasionaly during winter.

As for money, selling the herbs instead of saving them would be a good idea until you have enough money for a kitchen. Farming is hard in this game, but save every day and if your crops die, re-load from the day before and harvest them.

All the re-loading might feel a bit like cheating, but sometimes it's the best way. And you could do worse

I do have a kitchen, I've started cooking Egg Soup or something cause it raises Stamina by +28 or something, but thank you for all your tips! I've started implementing them into my gameplay :)

Better than Pudding are Hot Chocolate and Egg Soup :)
BTW - you didn't get any Wonderfuls from Harvest Festival?
