Last Sunday, I again paid Katrina to tell my fortune. She said she saw young twins standing at their shop door, confused because they forgot to order new goods to put out for the day.

She said that my luck with belongings will diminish…unless I pay her for purification, of course. I handed over the 1,000 bells to get another one of her lucky items. The next day (Monday), she sent me…a mini dharma! I was relieved that it wasn’t a another gold turtle!

I now have two of Katrina’s four lucky items.
After shooting down a balloon present later, I was quite surprised to find a new crafting recipe I didn’t have yet! It was for a cherry-blossom rug!

Of course, the cherry-blossom items are only available for a short time of the year, so that explains how it slipped through the cracks. But still, this is my 6th April playing the game, so you’d think I would’ve got them all by now!
On Tuesday, I found a lost item (a bag) on the ground. Without even investigating, I just asked the first villager I saw about it. That was Bones, and it was his shopping bag! He rewarded me with a long-underwear set.

Today, C.J. hosted the April fishing tournament. I decided to give it a go, and C.J. gave me three minutes to catch as many fish as I could. During the run though, I noticed that Static, Merengue, and Bob were all bunched up together, fishing from the same spot! That’s probably not the best strategy!

After my timer ran out, I chatted with the three of them. Merengue said she hadn’t even started fishing yet (oh really?), and Bob was looking forward to fishing on Switch 2. Me too, bud.

I returned to C.J. to wrap up my lone entry into the tournament. I caught six fish, so I earned a total of eight points. I sold my six fish for about 3,000 bells, and C.J. informed me that I had 22 points saved up in my pool. I must not have redeemed any points last time I participated.

I spent 20 of those points for two items: A marine pop wall and a fresh cooler. Coo.
Because of the tournament, there is no K.K. Slider concert tonight.
I posted my latest New Horizons video this week, so I hope you’ll give it a watch:
Fair warning: I believe Zipper will be showing up tomorrow for his pre-Bunny Day visit, so be warned. I’m working on a Bunny Day guide that I’ll be posting within the next couple days. And I’ll be back with another entry next week. Hope to see you then!
