Cook Together screen greys out

My sim formed a group and then I clicked on the counter for them to cook together {Just 2 sims}. As soon as I did this the screen became some what darkly translucent.  I can still see my sim, the lot, the whims, you name it I can see it. However I cannot interact with anything. I cannot save, I cannot talk to another sim. Nothing. And as I said above the screen became somewhat darker, yet not blacked or greyed out. I will attempt to attach a picture.
I have allowed the game to sit, to no avail.
I have zero mods and to my knowledge I do not have testing cheats on at this time.
Has anyone else had this issue?

    is the cooking menu when joining the only menu that doesn't pop-up or do you also have issues with the normal one ?

    Try the following

    - Close the game
    - Rename Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4 to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4_Old
    - Repair the game
    - Start the game. All your content will be gone now as the game created a new folder. All your saves/.. is still in the old folder so not to worry. 
    - Start a new save game
    - Check if you still have the error
    - Report back with your results for further steps on how to get your stuff back.
