How's the Cottage Living so far?
My main concern...is it buggy? Are the new features really good?

I'm having a blast thus far with the pack.
I created a new couple and moved them into the starter home by the waterfalls just to get a quick jump start on the pack while I wait for mods to get updated, so I'm playing in a fresh new save game with no mods/cc and I'm really stuggling to try to survive, LOL!
My poor sims are on the verge of starvation because they can't afford to buy the much needed groceries to cook any meals.... and I was only able to afford to buy two chickens (one hen, one rooster) so I'm only getting one egg per day thus far. Foraging for edibles has been an abject failure for the most part, and my aspiring avid fisherman can't catch a fish if his life depended on it (and it does!). *snicker snicker*
Out of desperation, I ended up having to sell some of the decor items that came with the lot (outdoor plants, wall art, carpets, etc) to get some money for groceries but you go through the groceries pretty darn quick when you cook a couple of family-sized meals to fill your sims' bellies for a few days, dagnabit! :D
I'm going to have to get more creative with my money making schemes and start travelling to other worlds to grab all the collectables I can, and maybe also visit other parks in the hopes that some generous stranger will bbq some food for my poor struggling family. Or maybe I'll pay a visit to other households and mooch some meals out of them, use their computer, swipe some of their garden veggies..... ha!
This. Pack. Is. Awesomesauce! :D
Side note: All of my mods have now been updated and ready for a new install, but I'm having so much fun with the vanilla mode challenge that I'm going to continue playing without them, or at least until my little family is finally able to get well established.... or they die of starvation.... (whichever comes first, LOL).
