Lately I’ve been watching a lot of HGTV reruns on Hulu while I work on my crochet projects. You can get a lot of inspiration for house builds while watching shows like House Hunters or Property Brothers. Today’s house build, which I have called Modern & Sleek, is inspired in part by a house that I saw on House Hunters (the interior color scheme and style) and also by a floor plan that I saw on houseplans.com. I hope you enjoy this tour! Continue reading →
Marle, as you can see, is extremely happy right now! Our last chapter of the Retreaux Legacy went MUCH better than the previous one. She now has a husband, a new job, and she’s expecting generation two! So what better way to celebrate than by pretending to swim in a bathtub? Continue reading →
Hello everyone! I hope you all had an amazing weekend! I’ve got another Weekly Links List here for you guys. I’m trying to make sure I include everyone from the week before and that I also check Youtube, Twitch, and The Sims forums to make sure I’ve found any new ones. As always, if I’ve forgotten anyone, please let me know! Continue reading →
Hello everyone! Rory has done it yet again with another great monthly build challenge! I really enjoyed building this one. It felt like a super cozy vacation home that your Sims could go to when they want to get away from the hustle and bustle of their usual lives. I’d certainly love to stay here for a couple of weeks and relax in front of that fire pit and read a book. That sounds heavenly.
Below is a tour of this cozy and charming beach house. Continue reading →
Hello everyone! I hope those of you in Canada had a great Canada Day and those of you in the USA had a great Independence Day! As you can see above poor Marle had a pretty rough few days in the last chapter. Hopefully this chapter will be a little bit more kind to her and we don’t get another visit from the burglar!

Oh my gosh. It’s July already?! Yikes. Time is flying! Here is this week’s link list. As always, if I’ve forgotten anyone, please let me know! (As a reminder I am only posting links to videos/stories that are about one of our challenges. They also must have been updated within the last week!) Continue reading →
It’s been a really hot and humid summer here so I thought my first recipe back with Eat Like a Sim should be something cold that can be enjoyed on a hot day. The Ice Cream Maker introduced with the Cool Kitchen Stuff pack offered up several options! I was intrigued by the flavor called “Fruits of the Forest” and I envisioned a mixed berry ice cream (since berries are commonly found in forests). The Sims made version shows what looks like vanilla ice cream with swirls of pink and purple. I couldn’t QUITE replicate the exact look, but I think it tastes great! Continue reading →
Hello everyone! I’ve been in a building mood in the Sims 4 lately. It’s definitely become one of my favorite aspects of the game given how user-friendly it is to build. I’ve also been fascinated by tiny houses and thought it would be fun to build one. I was inspired by a house that I found on houseplans.com and added my own spin to it.
I will say, this house is TINY. There is room for 1 MAYBE 2 Sims at most. However, it is still reasonably affordable at around §31,000 (so not a starter house, but close!). Now, onto the tour!
Missed the earlier chapter? Head to Chapter 1.1
Marle had a pretty good first couple of days in Desiderata Valley. She received a promotion on her first day at work and she even met a potential spouse in pizza delivery man, Ti-Ning Hanby. Can we keep up our lucky streak in this chapter? Let’s see! Continue reading →
It occurred to me this morning that our Links & Affiliates pages were greatly out of date (like… 2 or 3 YEARS out of date). Rather than go through and update it, I thought it would be nice to bring back my weekly links posts where I link to other sites, Youtube channels, and Twitch channels that play our challenges. This was something that I always enjoyed doing as I love finding new people to watch/read their stories.
There is a good chance that I am going to miss someone as it’s difficult to track down everyone that does our challenges, so please let me know in the comments below if I’ve missed you or someone else and I will add you next week!
NOTE: These links are ONLY for website/channels that are actively playing our challenges. I can’t link all Simmers as the list would be a hundred miles long. Continue reading →
