Random Poll

I was doing some research for Indigenous recipes and I thought I'd see how you all feel about Soup Stock as a type of ingredient in general. If you all want me to do this I think I would do different types of stocks, like beef or veggie, as well as an 'Any Soup Stock' ingredient type.

Great Shapes Bed Set • Objects

A matching set of separated beds from the Growing Together pack. I've separated the frames from the mattresses so they can be used to mix and match with other separated beds.

The frames for these beds will actually slot to the mattresses, allowing you to grab the mattress and take the frame along with it when redecorating. The crib is actually the reverse - you will slot the mattress to the frame.

There is also an optional 'HIDER' file that will hide the original bed(s) from the...

Lotsa Storage! Kitchen Cabinets • Improvement Mod

This overrides some EA objects to give them more purpose and be used as storage items instead of just décor. These storages will keep items fresh at about the same rate as a fridge and you can label them to help keep you organized.

I've also included the ability to grab and store my custom ingredients by category so you can organize your ingredients better and access them faster. This will work consistently with EA items as long as you have the Core Tag Modules installed, see optional...

Transfer Categories Modules • Core Mod

There are separate files for specific inventory objects so you can pick and choose which ones you'd like to use.

Preserving Skill

I wanted to get everyone's thoughts about the Preserving skill I mentioned in a previous post. 

This is an open discussion to share your thoughts on what you'd like to see with this skill. This will include all my curing, drying, and aging recipes outside of Nectar. Some things to think about: 

  • Progression - how would you like this skill to play out? 
  • Bonuses - what kinds of bonuses do you want to see either i...

Lot Discussion

I really want to build a lot in-between the Cheesemaking and Preserving Skill, any thoughts or ideas? Feel free to suggest which world you'd like the build based in.

Nothing is really off-limits but keep in mind I'll be working on the preserving skill in the background so nothing too large or intricate.

Let me know what you'd like to see me build in the comments below and be sure to like your favorites!!! I'll be choosing an idea from the top 2 or 3 most liked ideas 💡

Preserving Poll

I wanted to know how you all feel about potentially having another skill for preserving items. 

I think I would group them into one skill rather than each of them having their own. So the 'Preserving Skill' would include everything I've done so far - Curing, Drying, and Aging. I'm bringing this up because I think it does require some degree of skill to do these things and it might be fun to have a skill associated with them.

Nectar making will not be included with this and is...

Random Questions Discussion

I'd like to hear your thoughts on a few random things I've been mulling over.

Is Brazen Delivery sufficient for purchasing ingredients? If you feel like it's not, what other methods of purchasing options would you like to see? 

How do you feel about preserving recipes so far? Do you like that everything has different aging/curing/drying times? Would you prefer them to share preserving times? (for example - all drying recipes take 6 hours to dry)

How are you liking the m...
