A Few Suggestions for Kitchens, Gardening & Cooking etc. for 2025

I enjoy cooking in my real life and I love to try new things. I am very impressed the fact that Sims 4 has really has gone out of its way to add a lot of new international recipes that we have never had before. I honestly believe that this is fantastic a form of representation that we really need in the game.
