The Bachelor Challenge
I wanted to attempt to complete one challenge each month this year. We'll see how that goes. I missed January and got sick during Valentine's week which is when I wanted to start this challenge. ...

Day 2: Group Date, part 1
There's a group vibe happening in the house this morning. I feel like it's a part one of the group date. In the morning, Kaley grills some tofu with glazed carrots. She’s also a vegetarian. (In my head cannon, Jasmine is a vegan; Kaley a pescatarian.) Jasmine can eat the same meal with everyone without vomiting.
Jasmine happily eats her breakfast while chatting up Eric. Eating food that you can digest and actually enjoy puts me in a good mood, too. The two seem to hit it off. I assume they're discussing 1,000 ways to eat carrots, or why isn't the color orange called the color carrot? Or debating the implications of the orange carrot's authoritarian regime when everyone knows the purple carrot is the one true king.
Eric thanks Kaley for cooking for everyone and they have a conversation. They joke around about dude bros. I guess Kaley went too far because Eric gets a negative moodlet and then leaves to bowl. Way to show her you're not a dude bro... go do sports stuff.
While he’s bowling, Leah comes down to watch him. Well, she’s watching something. I don’t think she’s paying much attention to the bowling part, but she is enjoying the show.
More come in to see what’s going on. No one joins the game. They just watch. From one corner. It's kinda creepy. (Someone tell the butler to lock the knives up... just to be on the safe side.)
Eric is finally paying attention to someone not named Kaley. Zuri is not giving any attention back. The bachelor's over there. Stop smiling at the cameraman! Wait... I'm the cameraman. Don't smile at me! Look away. Look away from your Maker!
Leah, is everything ok with you? Are you... sniffing Eric's farts?
Eric slips and slams onto his back. Welp. Leah’s over it. She likes guys who keep their balance. Besides, she can’t stare at his butt if he’s on it.
He limps toward Kaley who does not give a flying plumbob. These girls are cold-blooded. Their dating profiles say Winners Only.
Eric fires Jasmine up. He likes her healthy lifestyle. He asks for tips on eating more vegan dishes. She shares some of her favorite recipes. He's impressed with her culinary expertise. Or maybe he's impressed that she wears a bikini all day. Who knows.
Morgan and Eric are getting along well. She invites him to a morning workout sesh. Eric stays ready to pump some iron.
Then Kaley enters and he forgets Morgan exists, focusing all his attention on her. Hello! Still standing here! (Tell the butler to leave out one tiny hobbit knife. A little stabby stab might be justified ...and good for ratings.)
Sims spent over 24 hours around the mansion talking, playing games, being weird, and not killing each other (because the knives are locked up). It's noon and time to leave for the Group Date.
In Part 2, we'll go off-site to allow our bachelor and bachelorettes to get to know each other in a different environment. See you there!
