@unseenlarks, "A day without learning is not a day/is a lost day" is an awesome saying! ❤️
And speaking of learning, the school projects that came with the Parenthood Game pack take longer than regular homework, but can really bump up your Sim student's grade! Parents and siblings can help too! I once caught a parent working on her teen's school project by herself! 🤨 😃 Each school project has 3 levels of quality, depending on how hard the Sim worked on them. But most of the projects are just like art items that can be viewed; a few of them your Sim is able to activate and they perform a small action. So, no, the little volcano school project is not dangerous at all, and isn't even messy. (I'm thinking of the volcano school project in an episode of the old television show "The Brady Bunch", which is a classic episode and one of my favorites! 😃:eahigh_file: ) I really love all the touches they put into the Parenthood GP! 🥳 But I love playing families, so if I could only have one GP, Parenthood would be it. But thank God I can have all of them! 😳 .
If your paternal grandparents are of Italian decent, we could be related! 😉 I love learning new words in English, (but really, I love learning anything in any language!) 🤓 I wish I had a little book on Simlish! I knew more Simlish words or phrases, but each version of the Sims has different favorite phrases. (its as if they are speaking a different dialect of Simlish! 😃😉 ) Sul sul, deg deg, nooboo, and chum chum are the ones that seem the most consistent. I almost forgot about chum chum since in TS4 I rarely order pizza since it often never gets delivered! 😮😠😢
I caught one of the Sims in the Jungle Adventure livestream (the first livestream) use some real English words. It's funny when they sometimes do that! I think they said "Ouch!" when they tried to clear branches and vines from a gateway with their bare hands! 🤭😃
I will try to get a screen shot of the avocado tree, an avocado, and a Sim eating an avocado for you. I wish I liked avocados. Everybody else in my family loves them, but I'm the oddball! But I'm always glad when my Sims get new food to eat, even if its something I don't like. I guess I feel bad for them since they can only eat stuff that is in the game. 😳 When I find all of the new dishes in the Jungle Adventure GP, I'll update you! 😇
