@Joria Patriarch is the reward trait for completing the Big Happy Family aspiration.
The Patriarch's own description says: "Patriarchs provide skill boosts whenever they're around their children.
When the founder Kaoru plays guitar in the kitchen, for example, his daughter gets a Happy +1 Parental Guidance moodlet plus she skills super quickly.
Too bad Kaoru got it so late, but it requires one child to max an adult career. It's great for early in an ID, in my opinion.
Zach's slept 3 nights now. I've taken him out of the household clubs. We can't go to Granite Falls or Arisa would lose her Playful mood for work. He's almost there!
Oh the VIP rope! No wonder your weddings always looks so spacious yet organized! I'll be trying it next time.
What a brilliant idea to use the VIP ropes--I've seen you use it for taking pictures in front of the wedding arch.
Arisa's Comedian career and Detective have to be my least-liked careers. Comedian because, as you say, the danger of hysteria; Detective, because it's glitchy (where's my perp?)
Now that her siblings have maxed and quit their jobs, I can focus more on Arisa.
Haha, I heard a noise like a dog chomping his kibble and when I panned the camera, it was Arisa scarfing.
For the sunken garden, I made a regular basement room, then moved up to the first floor and deleted the basement room's ceiling.
Part of me wants my sims to live in a lovely house like yours and other simmers on this forum; another part of me is too lazy. Like I got very excited about the pool, then, eh.
Hehe, I don't really feel any of my creations Gallery-worthy. I've never uploaded anything.
When the food is served at a restaurant that serves experimental food (Shimuzu, Chez Llama), your sims will have two options:
1) eat and learn experimental food; and
2) take photo of experimental food
When the waiter serves the food, my sims immediately want to chow down, but I cancel that and make them take a photo first.
Joria, you must take your sims to Chez Llama or Shimuzu! Your founder is a foodie!
Oops, that turned into a really long response, haha.
