Thanks Louise, I hope I don't get it any more either. I like the pictures as well. I'm also amazed at how much easier things are at this stage with fewer sims in my household.
Here are a few newspaper articles, pictures are coming.
New Celebrated Five Star Chef
By Bennie Oakes
Head Chef at the Bistro, Molly French, recently promoted Sydney Ostraiya to the rank of Celebrated Five Star Chef. Ms French said, "Sydney has been with us for his entire career, and he has perfected the art of flipping burgers, tossing salads, preparing desserts and more. He knows his way around the kitchen. I have no issue with promoting him to this rank and I know that he will do a fine job."

Consignment Store and Bistro Under New Ownership
By Bennie Oakes
If you are in the mood for a bite of seafood, the Bistro is the place to go. Recently renamed to 'Gambaros Seafood Restaurant' by new owner, Sydney Ostraiya the menu has a full range of seafood dishes as both entrees and mains. If you don't like seafood, are allergic to seafood, or vegetarian, don't worry, Gambaros can cater for you as well. "We also have meat dishes and a full range of vegetarian dishes," 5 Star Chef Ostraiya said.
Chef Ostraiya has also purchased Landgraab Sell'N'Swap and has renamed it to "Pick 'N' Pay Hypermarket". Nancy Landgraab said, "it was decided by my husband and I that we wanted to focus our attention on the Science Lab and when Sydney offered to buy the Consignment Store from us, we were happy to dispose of that asset."
Consignment Specialist, River McIrish, said, "even though we have changed our name, we are still your best place in town to purchase cameras, inventions, paintings, gems and metals. Or sell them to us and we'll find a buyer for your unwanted treasures. At Pick'n'Pay Hypermarket, satisfaction is guaranteed."
A nectar register, painting easel and sculpting station have also been installed at Pick'n'Pay Hypermarket for those wanting to make their own nectar, paintings or sculptures. Outside the store there is a subway station as well as a piano, drum set, guitar and bass for anyone wanting to practice music or perform.
Graduation Day
By Bennie Oakes
Today marks graduation day for the most recent senior class at the Community School for the Gifted in Sunset Valley. Relieved graduates and proud family members all gathered at the Sunset Valley Town Hall to celebrate the accomplishments of these fine upstanding young members of our community. Why, it seems like it was just over two weeks ago when they were kids, and now they are young adults, ready to take their place in the Sunset Valley community.
Even the famous are out in force. Three star celebrity, the reclusive Sydney Ostraiya, arrived with his wife, Agnes and two sons, Deerubben and Hobart. There were rumours that Agnes and Sydney were trying for another baby, but Agnes is an elder now, and so they are not going to be able to do so. Young Hobart, who is the result of the pregnancy of Mr and Mrs Ostraiya, unlike the adopted Deerubben, is a toddler and seems to be rather happy in his mother's arms.
Deerubben has had great grades during his high school years. Deerubben was so dedicated to his classwork that he chose not to go to the Prom, and instead opted to study for finals. His hardwork has paid off as the young man has graduated with highest honours and as class valedictorian. His classmates also named him most likely to achieve his Life Time Wish. During his valedictorian speech, Deerubben spoke fondly of his adopted parents and gave them full credit for his ability to achieve such greatness in his school studies. No one from the family was available for a comment following graduation, and it is understood that they are eating at the newly acquired family bistro, Gambaros Seafood Restaurant.
