Ideas
I use the Tea pots in the game to better control the moodlets for work and I have done so for a while when playing the game but recently it's like the tea is taking over priority of everything, my sim stops cooking in order to grab a cup, even if they're hungry or there's already another full cup they grabbed and sat down earlier. It's to the point where having a tea pot is unbearable and gets in the way of the gameplay, especially if I am trying to get my sim ready before work by using the restroom, showering, and making sure needs are filled because my sim will fight me for control just to pour one more cup of tea. I have started to avoid timed events at my sims house because I just can't complete the tasks in time in order to earn more than silver for the event with the constant tea breaks. I would just do without the tea if it wasn't almost the only way to pretty much ensure a certain moodlet without having to spend a large or unknown amount of time on a task prior to needing it.
Same, I have 10 cups with non drank coffee or tea
