It’s Pi Day! So we baked you a … 

… hey, where’d the pie go?

I really want to take part on this month’s Maxis Dare challenge, but since I am afraid I won’t make it before the end of March, I get to cheat a little bit this time.

This picture is ancient (2008), from way before I learned how to make Custom Content and could only make silly posters with Maxis sims. Sadly, I lost all my original pictures (RIP external hard disk), so I had to look for a preview at Garden of Shadows.

The kids from Strangetown as Peter Pan characters :)

The Cordial Sisters: Friendly Competition

(I said I’d have a drawing to thank everyone here for following me. :D I know the quality of the pic isn’t great, I’m sorry about that! I had serious issues with GIMP last night which made me lose my working file. I’m also still getting back into drawing, so this was great practice. )

Thank you so much for following. <3

The Bachelor Family

The Bachelors were the very first family that moved to Pleasantview shortly after it was founded (along with the Pleasants and Goths). They claimed to come from a tiny village near the mountains called Belladonna Cove. Gunther had heard stories about that village in the past, specially about its tight community that rarely let outsiders get too close to them.

The Bachelors were the prototype of the perfect family. Seriously, everything about them seemed to be straight from an old sitcom. Their house was always clean, with a perfectly green garden that always caught Cornelia’s attention.

Yes, the Bachelors were too perfect, almost to the point of seeming a bit fake. What were they hiding behind their squeaky clean walls?

The Goth Family

Gunther Roth was an ambitious man. Despite coming from a wealthy family back in the Old Country (that would later be re-named as Riverblossom Hills), he refused to spend his life just administering his father’s farm. He wanted to forge his own future. 

So, when the Old Man died, and his fortune was divided between Gunther and his older brother Mortimer II, he packed his things up and looked for adventure far away with his wife, Cornelia. He changed his last name to Goth, as a way to start over. 

The only tradition he kept from his old life was the naming scheme. Thus, he named his oldest (and so far only) son after his father, Mortimer.

His big opportunity arrived when he met Jeff Pleasant at Sim City. The Pleasant Family owned some lands in a tiny valley between Sunset Valley and Riverview. Jeff wanted to develop them, but lacked the money to do so.

Gunther offered his help. He invested all his savings in Jeff’s project.

And that’s how Pleasantview was born.

(Yep, I am trying to write again. It has become very stiff… along with my English skills :P)

preflight-delight asked: Woah, slow down there buddy. You should know that ACR messes up A LOT of things! D: My Sims couldn't even keep their pants on during the first date, I had to cancel the "woohoo in photobooth" interaction every five second.

Nah, it’s OK! :)

I’ve been playing with ACR for years, so I’ve learned how to configure it so my Sims don’t go overboard. I like it because it “chooses” when my Sims should “Try for Baby”, for example. Makes things more interesting to me.

The Goth Family

First family of my Maxis-Messy-Who-Cares-About-Continuity Neighborhood that I will play with ACR and Free Will for fun. I can’t wait to start!

One down, four more families to go!

Anonymous asked: Hi I love your creations and I'm kicking myself for not downloading everything when I could. I was wondering if you have the pooklet'd backscreen rugs available because esnip is being stupid. I thought I wouldn't need them but then the sims community dragged me in :)

Hello!

Esnip sucks and I’ve just realized that a LOT of my older posts have Esnip links (FUUUU). I can’t promise I’ll fix them soonish (I really don’t have much free time lately), but if there’s anything in particular you need, let me know.

For instance, the Pookleted backscreen rugs are here:

(Also, if someone knows how to make a public mediafire folder available for anyone, let me know. It stopped working for me a while ago and I have all my back up stuff there)

Oh how this movie just tugs at my heart.

That phrase is the most romantic thing I’ve ever heard/read.

I always get teary eyed when I remember this scene. Man, I love this movie! <3

Evolution of the First Year Teacher

-markct

How my teachers out there doing? Hanging in there?

Right now I’m between December and January. Damn, is it exhausting!

I completed this looong quiz because I am currently bored and moody (PMS + Valentine’s Days Blues = Not a good combination).

Welp… I am not familiar with most of these fandoms at all so I don’t understand some of my results, but I guess I really am a Ravenclaw and the most mundane human on the planet :P.

Now I  need to Google what is District 4.
