Cottage Living Anomalies or Bugs

I have the same problem as other people about the mayor not judging the fairs fairly. I'm not sure this is a bug.  Maybe you are supposed to bribe the mayor to get a better finish.  

Something I've noticed that is a bug is when foxes take an egg or harvestable.  I asked the fox to drop the egg and it stayed with its mouth open like it was still holding it.  Another fox took a bell pepper.  The bell pepper appeared on the ground and the fox was running around with its mouth open like it had the pepper.

Another thing with foxes is that they don't remember their gifts.  If i gift them something that thing gets marked with a thumbs up or down so you know if they liked it. But if I close the game, next time I open it, it will be like I never gifted them anything.

One thing I'm disappointed with is a new deco item called Herb the Posy Protector.  It looks like a gnome but does not behave like one.  I was disappointed I couldn't appease it like the gnome riding the chicken.  

Speaking of gnomes, this is probably not CoL related but I made a holiday that included the appease gnomes tradition.  I was at the Gnomes Arms pub and appeased the gnomes there.   I left the lot. The holiday ended.  Next time I go back the gnomes still have the halos on their heads.  I think it had to do with me leaving the lot before the holiday ended.  

And speaking of holidays, again not CoL related, I participated in the Neighborhood Brawl.  It's not supposed to affect relationships with other sims.  And while the relationship bar remains the same, I gain negative sentiments from other sims because of the fighting.

I've noticed a few other things but I'm grateful I haven't experienced any of the major problems Ive heard other people have had.
