deedee_sims | Round 5

Last time:
- The Woods family became vegetarian, due to ROS (and it continues this round)
- A new cat, Cloud, joined the family
- Tristan grew up to became the clone of Jared
- Jared started to sell bland tomatoes in his grocery store, which were surprisingly popular among the customers

Yay! That's perfect, because Brett will grow up soon! :D

Let's start with some fishing in the rain.
They must sing: I'm fishing in the rain, I'm fishing in the rain, what a glorious feeling, I'm happy again XD

However Tristan still has to practise more :P

Don't forget about Artemis, who's expecting kittens!

So! Brittany finally got around to open her restaurant, the Green Plumbbob Dinner! :D

It's seriously green ^^

She hired Rachel Banks to be a... well, employee. She started her work enthusiastically XD
Rachel: What?

The preggy Abigail by

lesyasun was a bit choosy. Must be those nasty pregnancy hormones!

Ah, Kiefer, you're always so happy! He never written a single bad review in his entire life!

Rachel: So you order Nectarin Tar... Tarle... Tarelet...

Brittany is seriously a master chef!

As I said, Kiefer is a great guy :D

Brittany: Take a seat!
Rachel: *sigh* Another customer...

Maaaagic *_*

Wow, you just hired her!
I think, she didn't appreciate Rachel's lack of enthusiasm XD

Brittany: Is he okay?

Meanwhile at home Tristan was addicted to Cloud!

And Cloud was addicted to this cat game thingy ^^

Yes, Cloud, Artemis is the queen of the house! (pregnancy hormones? XD)

And it was someone's birthday!

Who's Brett (no surprise, because he's the older kid)

Of course the parents quickly got distracted after the celebration

Annnd here we have our teen Brett! I had a hard time choosing his hair ^^"
Anyways, stats!

Pleasure / Knowledge (another one) - Scorpio
+ Fitness, Blond hair
- Good in cleaning
Traits: Loves the Outdoors (Jared) - Unflirty (Brittany) - Supernatural Skeptic - Nurturing
LTW: World Class Ballet Dancer

Of course, his first trip was to the Town Hall to buy some gadgets

The small garden with the bland tomatoes is still here

Tristan didn't care about the garden, instead he started to play whatever sims game his brother bought yesterday

It was time to visit Jared's business, the Fresh Food Mini Market! Alyssa Kinsley still works here!

And Olivia is still pretty :3

Okay Jared, I'm happy that you enjoy yourself, but maybe you should care about the customers?

The bland tomatoes were still selling great!

Meanwhile at home: kitty time! :3
Meet Bubble (female), Joker (male), and Twinkle (female)
And here's when the kitten spam starts! :D

Look at this cute face!

They're everywhere!

What a nice booty you have here ^^

Brett brought Leann Danielson home from school. And they have two bolts!
Well, she could fit the Woods family's green color theme (okay, that was a bad joke XD)

Yaaaaaay! :3
Artemis: Silly humans

They went on a date!

But Leann quickly got distracted because of the cute kitties
Kitty (I can't distinguish them): Help...

And Tristan came home with Berenice Danielson! I see some kind of family reunion there :D

They had a great time!

Until they had to write their homework
I think they both have Jared's nose, but I'm not sure. Oh, well!

Brittany brought home Alyssa Kinsley from work
Who's vegetarian, so she loved the salad

Awww :3
He seems so satisfied

Of course every single visitor got distracted by the cats :P

Leann, what are you doing here in the middle of the night?

Yes, she woke up everyone with the ringing, and then she left, thank you

Those pesky bugs!

:333

Brett brought home Leann again. It's fate!

While Jared greeted the very pregnant walkby Natalie Danielson, because she's an old family friend!
Or just came to check on her niece, Leann

And as we know, the Danielsons love cats! :D

Tristan came home with and A+

Tristan: Daddy, daddy! I got an A+!
Jared: Okay, my son, but I'm trying to concentrate on the catch!

Oh, and he also brought Aubrey Banks with him!

Kitty: Halp...

Yes, Brett, that's a good way to impress your date...

Well, that's much better!

Artemis: Silly humans

And they suddenly started to argue, and Leann left O_o

Brittany taught some tricks to Artemis!

At least the date was a great one
Look how happy Leann is! :D

Finally the tomatoes grew produce, so Jared could sell them again

The kittens grew up! That's Bubble

Joker

And Twinkle
I know their names just because I took the pictures in alphabetical order XD
But wait! They had blue eyes so far! My game is tricky!

Meanwhile at the grocery store...

The business reached Rank 6!

Why the half of the queue faces the wrong way?

Thank you, Snowflake, that fridge definitely needed some trimming XD

At home: cats everywhere!

Brett brought home Leann again. I hope it's just enthusiasm and not a glitch!
But look how happy they are, aww :3

Later, Leann's father, Davey Danielson came to check his daughter. It seems he was satisfied about her date :)

Kisskiss ^^

It was time to arrange that sleepover, so Brett invited his friens over!
For example Emmett Masterson

Rachel Banks

And Cailin Sergeant, who magically changed her clothes, woops!
It must be the repository stuff I downloaded XD

In this house, everything is about cats. They even watched a film about them!

The parents also had a great time on their own XD

I don't like the blue color on her! >_<

There's so many green things in this picture XD

I think Emmett loves cats

And the cats loves each other!

Well, needless to say, the visitors didn't sleep at all

Hi, Twinkle, you look so cute!

Back to the restaurant!

It reached Rank 1! Yay!

I haven't seen townies eating together before!
But It seems like Darcy (by Poppet) didn't enjoy spending time with Kailand (by

sunnyskysx) :P

The orchard trees also grew produce, so Jared will expand the grocery store's supply (next round)

Still life with cats :3

Leann again, but I didn't mind, beause they're cute!

Aw, yes :)

Tristan came home with Finley Sergeant this time

Of course they played the Sergeant family custom: pillow fighting!

Still life with cats and Brett

That's all, have a nice family picture! It seems like Brett and Tristan have the same jeans XD
The tax was 4800 simoleons

---
- I'm really happy about Leann and Brett! They're so cute together! And since their parents are also in friendship, it's an awesome thing! :D
- I'll sell (or just give) some of the new kittens to other residents in the beginning of the next round (one female for the Sergeants, and I don't know about the another one)
- I really like the Green Plumbbob Dinner! I can't wait to have some more employees, so the business will operate more smoothly!
- Thank you for reading :D

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

What an interesting challenge this time! I'm so glad to see that all teenagers in Griffinmere have nise relationships!

And oh my God! The Plumbob restaurant is just so cute. (Apple green + yellow is the best color combination ever <3)

Brett looks so stylish with a new haircut ;) Though I can't imagine him as a world class ballet dancer :D

I was really happy when I saw this ROS event! I always feel warm when the kidlets are building friendships! :D
Thank you! :3 I also love this color combination! And of course, apple green is a great color in itself (I think, it's my favorite!)
Hehe, I can't imagine Brett as a ballet dancer neither XD I may reroll his LTW later :D

I forgot to comment on tumblr about the diner, but it's the best sims diner ever. I'm in love with it <3
Brett grew up really well and I'm happy that him and Leann get on so well ;D
Also so many cats!! the kittens grew up to be so cute and different from each other (always a good thing) Twinkle is soooo fluffy :3

Ah, thank you so much! :3 I'm glad you like the little restaurant!
When I saw Brett and Leann has two bolts, I was incredibly happy! I think they're so adorable together! ^^

I still can't surely distinguish Bubble and Joker (despite their different tail - I just can't remember who has the fluffier one XD), but Twinkle is so different! I think she'll be the one who stay with the Woods family :D

"Jared started to sell bland tomatoes in his grocery store, which were surprisingly popular among the customers"

Then my mom must secretly be a sim, because she will eat the most bland, out-of-season tomatoes in the world and wonder why I don't love them. :D

That said, the Green Plumbbob and the cats are ridiculously cute.

Hehe, your mother would be a great customer in the Fresh Food Mini Market :D I don't like bland tomatoes neither, they're so sour!
Thank you so much! :3

Yes, she would. (I think it's psychosomatic - she misses summer so much that she manages to make herself think that winter tomatoes are good. :) )

The Plumbbobrestaurant is SO cute!! I would eat there, too. :D
Brett seems like a nice teen, i like his kind-of-reealationship with Leanne. :3
And cats EVERYWHERE. :D I like twinkle the most. ♥

Haha, i really have to laugh about the familiy picture because everyone is wearing jeans. x'D But it's really nice, though.

Thaaank you! I would also eat here! :D
Ah, Twinkle is the cutest cat from this litter :3
Not just wearing jeans, they're all wearing vans shoes! It's their family custom! XD

Aw deedee, your lots are always so perfect. :) And I like that ROS! What a good idea. Might have to try it myself. It's too bad teens don't actually sleep when you invite them to sleepover...

Ah, thank you so much! :3
The end of the sleepover was funny, because the visitors didn't go to school when Brett and Tristan left, and they started sleeping instead in the morning! That's when I thought they should go home XD

Brett and Leann are so cute together. I love how you're playing this. It's so hard to keep up with the kittens, to see which is which ;-; And good idea taking the pictures in alphabetical order @_@ You might have answered this before.. but are you gonna send the first group of teens off to college? I should do the ROS more often too @_@ I might roll it before I go into game.

Indeed, they're adorable! ^^ Heh, I can only distinguish Twinkle, because she's so fluffy :D
I won't send them to college, because the town has to build a university first! And it would need more money. Maybe later, if the town will have more income from taxes! :)

It might be better off not sending them to Uni anyway. It's such a drawn out process. I love sending them and I struggle with whether I'll send them or not. I want to make a Uni town if I do. But that takes so long too. After I get my main town situated I'll work on the other towns maybe. But power to you with this BaCC.

All of the lots you build are ridiculously cute and colorful! I'm literally just going to plop myself in your game! xD

Haha, Rachel is so cute as a waitress! OMG at Brittany wanting to fire her already though! She is trying her best! :P

Brett's hair definitely frame his handsome face! I love him and Leann together. So many good-lookin' teens this round in Griffinmere.

D'aw, cute kitty (http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/deedee_sims/71416268/603574/603574_original.png). He looks so worried here, haha. Life is great, don't worry! =^.^=

Love the staging of their family portrait at the end and all of the green! <3

Haha, thank you! I enjoy building and playing these lots! :D
It seems like Brittany thinks Rachel is not a reliable employee or something :P
Yay, I'm glad you like Brett's makeover! I agree, he and Leann are so cute together (the green couple XD) :3
Maybe the kitty just wanted to go back to his mother's belly, the outside world is so huge! :D
Thanks! I love their weird greenness :D

I adore the diner! It's so pretty! Your colour combos make me want to dive into your game.

TWINKLE IS THE CUTEST THING EVER! Could you possibly share the cats? (Maybe you already have). I'm always hunting for different pet species and colours.

Thank you so much! I really love how the diner turned out! I'm glad you like it too :3

Oh, yes, I already shared the born in game cats from Griffinmere:
