Summer Backyard Barbecue Event

Oh, I won't open any more in that case! Got a bench, green tickets of course, and a shirt!! Erik likes it... mmmm, you can tell he hasn't got all his traits yet...!

Note: Wait time between completion of Task #7 and beginning of Task #8 is 18 hours unless you want to pay 71 SimCash to rush.

Ok so as much as I wish EA would fix bugs instead of rolling out new content (had to throw 9 items into storage before I could place one drink tray in the house) I am pacified by this new outfit....

I haven't consistently received lemons for hobby or career sessions. I have gotten them, but not every time.

Good upbringing all paid lemons for me today, not saying it could be 100% for others but definitely another avenue to think about... get breedin’ folks.

 @themummyof4 I had 76simcash that was rotting (no point buying decor as I couldn’t place the item anywhere) so used that, definitely save lemons until chest quests!

@VintageStarlette 🌸🌼 get better 🌼🌸 .. as for party don’t sweat it, it filled fairly fast today so if you don’t get in I know you were there in spirit 👻👻👻

@Here4Snacks I like how you paired the aqua with the red, and in the shoes, too. Nice!

P.S. I see your party, but I'm holding off on attending until I can kick this headache I have. 🖤 I will visit!

Um, I don't know... It looks like the gnomes and the bbq items are sort of separate, though they're part of the same quest.

I don’t know what it is about these Quests, but I always have such a hard time understanding the directions🤔  🧐
So if I’m understanding this correctly, you have the option to use Sim Cash OR your Lemon Slices to get stuff.  
I think it’s like getting the Ornate Boxes vs. the Luxury Ornate Boxes in the World of Luxury event.  Am I close?

 

I’m on part 5, but have to wait 16 hrs for the next event to start? 

Unless I use Sim Cash to rush the event?  

 

Nope, not going to happen-SC is too hard to come by ... 

then again, if the Gnomes clean up my Storage, I might reconsider 😂🤪

Thank you so much, Wiz, for the preemptive advice. You know I would've totally opened them at every chance—and I did until I saw your post.

I got a patio bench and summer dining chair. I'll never use the bench—no grayscale or even a muted blue or green. But the chair is cute.

I've got a question: Found these magnifying glass career order items. Why are they accumulating??? Any idea what their purpose might be?

The magnifying glasses are for one of the quests.

@BlueWizardRob You can also  earn lemons from going to work. This may also apply to hobby and friendships

It does.  If this is similar to the last event, you will earn lemons approximately once per four shifts. you work/practice/etc.
