Please let me know if you find any problems with the challenge (I’m currently play testing it myself) or if you find a part that is too similar to yours/someone else’s (I’m aware there are quite a few flower based challenges out there but I tried to make mine as unique as possible).

You dream of living in a large house filled with love and family.

You sit and wonder what your family will grow to do, and hope that they will flourish just as beautifully as your garden has. This is the start of your family legacy!
Aspiration: Freelance botanist
Traits: Cheerful, clumsy, loves outdoors

Grow a cowplant and keep it alive for as long as you live (if it dies, immediately plant a new one)

Sorry it's been awhile I've been active on here. As it does sometimes, life has gotten in the way of me playing the sims.
I've still been lurking around and keeping up with my favourite sims stories, but I've gotten a few asks and tags built up which I will try and get around to some point soon!
I have not played or updated my game since last July (I haven't even bought Love Struck yet 😅 ) so I'm not sure if I'll start posting soon since I'll need to go through my mods as well. I might dip my toe in Sims 2 again though, everyone playing the new release has given me the itch!
So yeah, hopefully I can be a bit more active on here soon! Hope you are all having a great day/night! 💛

I've been reading a lot recently (just started the Stormlight Archive!) and not been playing video games much at all (although I have dipped my toes in Fields of Mistria which is super cute!) and just been tired from work a lot 😣
BUT I'm actually quitting my job at the end of this month, and going on a month long trip to Japan halfway through September, so if I have time/motivation to update sims and update all my mods I might have some posts in between then 😅
*spoiler alert* I did NOT have time to update my game 😅
We're heading to Japan tomorrow so there definitely won't be any new sib posts over the next month but I'll probably post some tourist-y pictures for you at some point!
