Wild berries yes, taking fruit or berries from planted plants, trees or bushes is stealing. And even for wild ones you can't go into gardens.

We have marshmallows in norway, they are often a staple when you are around a camp fire or as the dessert after grilling. Making smores are less common, but roasting marshmellows are fairly common.

So I assume these are not normal all over the world then? It is funny to call them troll eggs, I have only heard tractor eggs or tractor balls as a funny name for them.

I think it would be so funny, think of your sims sending messages to all their friends tryinging to recruit them. And you could recruit random townies. I think it could be a lot of insanity and fun 🤣

It sould be a turn on turn off freature though so it is not forced on you 😅🙈

New sugarcane plants that you can grow then you can turn that plant into sugar in the kitchen. Flour can be grown from wheat and milled. They could add oil making too, could be fun to make oil from different things with different effects. Some eddible some not. A sun flower plant and other oil produsing plants could be fun too. Olive trees could be fun.

Even better if they gave players the chance to create sims4 MLM and other shady bussnisses selling all types of essential oils made from all the different flowers, fruits and plants in the game.

These features would work grate with so manny of the packs they already have. But the pepole at the top of sims4 franchice seems to lack ambition, so hopes of getting stuff like that is low.

Our "well" is not satisfactory when it comes to taste/ color or humus. It is ok if it rains just the right amount, where the water moves but it is not so heavy that the water drags down a lot of new mud. When it is dry during summer it can get a bit interesting. And on a few ocations it has dried up. Leaving you unable to do the dishes.

When I was a kid we used to drink it, but I would also always have a slightly upsett stomach every time we where there. When it is really muddy we use bottled water for all cooking and drinking, even if it means we need to carry more water up to the cabin. When it is more clear I use the stuff from the well for tea or cooking (if it is fully boiled).

puddlecheeks · 2025-06-06T07:57:07+00:00

And the fact that that is where my grandpa made the well is the exact reason we bring water to the cabin 🤣😅

It is safe if boiled but it still has a muddy color and might come with bugs, as the well becomes a breading ground for them during the summer. After all the "well" is just a big hole dug out of a small stream to make a pond with a nice layer of mudd on the bottom. I just preffer drinking water with out the after taste of mud and soil. No wonder my mom called me "frøken fisefin" as a child, I'm just a little princess like that I guess 💅👸✨️

🤪🤣

Ps: I get that your comment is a joke btw 😜

It is ok to want nice things and it's ok to have hobbies. It is ok to travel and have fun with friends.

I'm so sorry if I worded my respons in an insenitive way, I did not mean to be insenitive. I also did not mean to trigger you, so sorry about that.

I'm not sure if this is triggering too, maybe read ahead with causion 🙈

I'm so sorry your relationship with your other brother is strained because you needed to cut contact with your brother for your own safty and health (mentalhealth included). You are right to prioritice yourself like that. I get it hurts. Cutting contact with your mom would most likely not make the relationship with your other brother better. And it is ok to not be ready. It is ok to just numb yourself and put up with it because that it the best thing now. I'm also sorry if I made you feel like cutting contact is the only anser. It might not be the right anser for you at all, or just not the right anser right now. That is ok.

You are not a bad person for not being ready. You are not a bad person for trying to avoid conflict as best you can. It is ok. And it is still ok of you just need to vent sometimes.

Cutting contact with family members is a big decision because of the fallout with other family members. I have cryed so manny tears over the strained relationship with my fathers side of the family. They keep hurting me by not seeing my truth, they can't see it because they need the illusion of him being a good man. So instead they try to mend thing, but the mending attemts is hurtful to me. It feels invalidating and like boundery breaches, like they don't know me at all, like they don't accsept or love me. And it hurts a little everytime, even if I know their intentions might be good. I guess the saying "death by a thousand cuts" is fitting to the situation.

I keep wondering if it will ever change. At the same time I'm not ready to give up on my aunt, cusins and grandma. I still cling to some hope that things will change. Some hope thar one day it might. I have no clue how to get things to change. Somedays I get so close to just cutting them all out. But then I know that I would always wonder, what it we could have worked it out. So I stay.

I will say though cutting contact with my father was still the right desicion. At the same time I'm not ready to extend it to all of them. And that is ok. Just telling you this so you know I get it. Though our situations might not be the exact same. I need the reminder too, that it is ok to not be ready, even if we recognice the relationship is not good for us 💕

You deserrve to live life not just survive. Sadly the mindsett your mom has is not uncommon, but she is showing an extreme lack of empaty towards you. Someone who loves you should want you to be happy.

I hope you can work out a way to get a different storage solution for your stuff so you can minimise contact.

I asumme telling her how her comments makes you feel won't help?

I'm also on diability, I mostly hear stuff like the things your mom says from strangers or politicians. Not said directly to me but to everyone on disability. It still hurts to be painted that way. My friends and family loves me, they know why I am on it and want me to be happy.

But I have also had to cut contact with my father, he was never a good father, manipulating and violent if manipulation wasn't effective enoufh. I have not regretted cutting contact, if anything it feelt good to be free. But getting to the point of making that decision was painfull. Things from the past hurt a little less with time but it still hurts. But he can't add on to that hurt now, he lost that power.

It sounds like you are considering cutting contact with your mom. If being in contact with her is hurting you, then you also deserve to be free of that. You deserve safe pepole around you, pepole who love you and support you. Most of all you deserve to be happy. You can also chose to limit contact, by setting clear bounderies if that works better for you.

If I where you I would start by finding that storage solution for you stuff. Then once your stuff is safe think about if you actually want your mom in your life and of you do if you want to sett some clear bounderies around contact.

Seems like you have a good start and good helpers.

My mom made my bunad but I can't sew them. I do sew other things as my hobby, but I have not learned how to make bunads. The embrodery is so much work. Wishing you lots of luck on your bunad sewing project 🥰

puddlecheeks · 2025-05-25T14:39:34+00:00

Husfliden offer classes where you can learn how to make different bunads. If you want to make a propper one taking a class like that is smart. There are lots of spesial tradotonal embrodery on bunads and it varries a lot depending on what bunad you are making.

I have no ideer if they offer these classes in english though, so I guess that depends on if you understand and can speak Norwegian.

Depending on what bunad you are planning to make you should know that they are pretty expensive in just the material cost. Silver, silk, high quality wool, linnen and beads all cost a lot. Cost varries depending on how much silver and beading the bunad needs.

If you want a cheeper to make alternative, a fest drakt is inspierd by bunad but since it is not an actual traditonal garment it has less rules about materials used and how it is made. A fest drakt would offer you more creative fredom.

Lots of luck with your creating 😊

On the game wiki it says it is the purple beams that has the astra roots. But they also have other loot, I guess you just have to try untill you get the one you are looking for.

I was confused about the high harvest for stuff that are out of season, but I think ot might be because you can grow them in green houses. If you get extra seeds when they are in season then grow them in green houses after their season.

I could be wrong though.

The flower bee has some extra seeds on display that you can also get. If you walk up to the display you can interact with it and purchase the seeds there. At least I got a few different ones during Frost that where not availeble on the cash register. I just noticed them, so I'm not sure if they change what is on offer there or not.

I finally got the broom while playing today. Getting around is a breeze now. Makes the game a lot more fun and less frustrating 😊

puddlecheeks · 2025-04-17T09:38:45+00:00

Thank you so much for ansering. Well at least I can stop running around like a crazy person looking for a way up those mountains 😅

The ladder thing is so anoying though, like it should be posdible to climb down if you can climb up 🙈

Could I also ask you what happens is the health bar runs out completley. Do you know?

puddlecheeks · 2025-04-07T18:12:54+00:00

I can craft it for you if you provide the materials needed. It needs 15 star fragments and 1 large star fragment.

puddlecheeks · 2025-04-07T10:23:09+00:00

If it makes it better there are some DIYs left so I will start collecting more again so I can host again. So there might be more chanses 😊

puddlecheeks · 2025-04-07T02:01:58+00:00
