Hello everyone :)I hope everyone is enjoying the new expansion pack, it is pretty awesome. I do have one problem though. I can't seem to make pumpkin pie. It is the fall season and I had my adult sim go to the fall festival to harvest some pumpkins. When she got home there was no option to make pumpkin pie. She has a level 7 Cooking skill btw. I went to the concession stands to see if I can buy the recipe book there, no recipe, went to the bookstore, no recipe, clicked on the fridge and selected serve breakfast/lunch/dinner/dessert and there is still no option to make it. If someone has figured out how, will you please share with me. Thank you

On the Sims Vip, she says you can make Pumpkin pie when you have pumpkins in your inventory, so i assume the recipe unlocks once if you have a higher than 5 cooking skill and pumpkins in your inventory. If you do already have the pumpkins then maybe it is a bug? :?

I think it's a bug. I also have the same problem.I have reported this in crinrict's bug thread.

@Lemonshi97 - None of those actions or extra ingredients exist in Sims 3 (except mods can allow for the ingredients). This is not the Sims 4 section of the forum and this thread is from 2012 when pumpkins just got introduced to TS3 with its Seasons EP and players were having difficulties working the recipe into their already ongoing games at the time. :)

Thanks for clarifying those things @igazor. I'll lock this thread here to limit any other bumps.

Oh noes, I hope it's not a bug. I'm hoping by fall my cook simmie can make pumpkin pies :-/

Well I have 2 pumpkins in my inventory, maxed out cooking level and I went to see if I could buy the receipe and you cannot. I clicked on the pumpkin and the only option is to give gift and I click on the fridge under desserts and there is no option for pumpkin pie. I am wondering if this is a glitch?

I'm having the same issue; no pumpkin pie recipe. In fact there are hardly any dessert recipes at all.

I think somebody said if they had level 5 cooking or higher before installing Seasons, they can't make it. But if they get to level 5 after installing Seasons, they can :)

I had the same problem with my existing sim. She was maxed out of her cooking skill and could not cook the pumpkin pie. However, when I made another sim, and she's at cooking skill level 5 now, the option came up.

Sounds like a bug to me... I really hope this doesn't affect the LTW of my "learn every recipe" sim who's level 7 cooking right now....
