    Gothique Library ~ buah ha ha! >:)

    Hi Guys, I haven't updated my Thank You thread in a while because I've been switching everything over to a new computer. Yey!
    So without further ado, here is another big thank you! This one goes out to @scillakees for the awesome Gothique Library gift from her generous donation in the August Gift of Creation game. I looooooovvvvve this library!!! It's quite amazing and cool and creepy in such a good eerie way!
    Thank you, scillakees! I really do appreciate this wonderful gift and feel so very lucky to be able to enjoy it in my game. The generosity of the Simmers on this forum never ceases to amaze me. B)

    I had never seen any close up pictures of the Gothique Library, which is great because I wanted to be surprised. I'm really glad too, because it was such a nice surprise to see the whole thing, inside and out. All kinds of little areas, and nooks and crannies, and.... well.... If you don't own the library and would like to see what it looks like, here are some photos, but, if like me, you'd rather be surprised, then I have put the interior photos on spoilers. But even if you do see the pictures, there are still places to explore and hide and jump out and scare people! :)

    The library appeared mysteriously one day in the town of Midnight Hollow, a perfect place for a haunted library, don't you think? Raven and Brandy, sisters who just moved to Midnight Hollow, hurried over to the library in their slow as molasses taxi, to check it out before anyone else did.

    Something or someone scared the living daylights out of the girls and they tore out of library
    in a hurry, one of them dropping a book behind on their way out. You can see it there behind the gate. It has a red leather cover.
    Maybe some kind soul will find Raven and Brandy's house and return the book to them tonight, at midnight... while they're asleep.

    Isn't the library awesome?!

    Another photo update full of belated thank yous to four generous TS3 Simmers. :smiley:

    1. @RedHoneySky
    2. @creativity_rulez
    3. @AllisonChurch

    Thank you to @RedHoneySky for the following items:
    Festoon to the Honeymoon
    Enchanting Faire Love Seat
    Villa Trellis End Table
    Boeuf Gras Dining Chair
    Old Town Dining Table
    Once Upon a Time Cottage- Quaint Cottage Window

    These are all such beautiful items! I am already enjoying them in my game. Your generosity is so very much appreciated. :smiley:

    "Don't worry, Clark. You did the right thing becoming 'just friends' with Vicki, but just the same, I wouldn't wear that suit anymore," said Jade.
    "I didn't choose this suit. It chose me. You know, the move to the new computer screwed up so many of us," said Clark.
    "I know," said Jade. "It's been a regular side show watching everyone downtown. Well, more of a side show than usual, anyway," said Jade, "So many of us lost our old clothes."

    "Willow, where is your short red and black dress? You know, that really tight one," asked Henry.
    "It was lost in the move," replied Willow with a pained look.
    "Oh, sorry."
    "No biggie. I already ordered another one," said Willow.
    That seemed to brighten Henry's mood.

    *************

    I love the Once Upon a Time Cottage- Quaint Cottage Window.
    So very pretty! Perfect for my little cottage in the woods and maybe a big bad wolf or two. ;)

    A big thank you topped with gooey chocolate goes to @FairyGodMother @charlotteprice
    for the Choc-O-Falls Fountain . The chocolate fountain was part of a Gift of Creation prize. As you can see, we had lots of fun with it.

    Aster uses the Chocolate Fountain for the first time, choosing chocolate swirl. Yummy!

    Ginger can't resist the temptation of bubbling chocolate fun. She skipped the fruit and went
    straight for the straw.

    And finally, here is one of the photos that the Choc-O-Falls Fountain Company chose to put on their
    new package design as part of their recent contest. Aster submitted this photo and won her place on
    the box. Everyone is thrilled (well maybe not everyone, there are always those little green eyed monsters).

    Thanks again, Everyone! I am so grateful and really do appreciate it. :smiley::blush:

    Thanks for the compliment, @ZeeGee. I'm glad you enjoyed the pics. :) Yes, I was surprised by the straw thing too! Hysterical!

    I would like to thank @charlotteprice aka @FairyGodMother for the It's Business Time Industrial Oven
    which was part of a Gift of Creation prize!!! I am having so much fun with the oven! I love it! Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity!!! I really do appreciate it! :smiley:

    GVeCksY.jpg

    I was just dying to try out the It's Business Time Industrial Oven in TS3. Sure it's been around for a while, but it is new to me.
    The first thing I did was build a "quickie restaurant" to see how the oven works. The new owner of the restaurant, is still in the testing phase and will improve the property as she gets used to things. Right now, the restaurant is called the Dindwell Restaurant, but that may change too. I am having a lot of fun having a working restaurant in my game.

    ***********************

    n8j6DqJ.jpg

    I knew menus were important at Dindwells, so that customers will be able to place their orders. Tony, (far center dressed in black), invited Jennifer, (wearing the light colored suit), out to try the new restaurant. He hears all of Dindwell's desserts are homemade and incredibly delicious! Tony and Jennifer are just friends, though one of them might wish they were more. Time will tell.

    Even though the two of them are hanging out together, they are not sitting together. They don't know what prevents them from dining at the same table, but hey, it happens and by this time, everyone is used to it. Now if only we could figure out why little Beatrice keeps framing Thornton's r u m p in an imaginary photo. Maybe because he acts like a horse's... ;) but, anyhow.

    ***********************

    IJ3K4QI.jpg

    You can see the double doors leading to the kitchen. I haven't tested any special door locks to keep customers out of the kitchen, but there's Brenda, dressed in a formal gown, hanging out in the kitchen where she's not supposed to be. I'm sure the cook is not amused. ;)

    ***********************

    pHUejZa.jpg

    Overview of the kitchen. The cook repeatedly prepares food until she needs to take an order for food.
    The Dindwell Restaurant is preparing for the upcoming Thanksgiving crowd in a few weeks. Better get those turkeys and pumpkin pies ready!

    ***********************

    0ymPAd0.jpg

    A walls down view of the kitchen.

    ***********************

    b3ndR9K.jpg

    After all that food prep, the cook goes out onto the floor with her order pad and takes Tony's order. Since he just finished a quick dinner with his sister, Gina, he orders just dessert. The cook returns to the kitchen and places the ordered food in the top oven with her super duper heat resistant hands and her stitched up neck (Halloween makeup that didn't wash off, perhaps?).

    ***********************

    MJvNSp5.jpg

    When the food is ready, it pops down to the lower level. I absolutely love this and it's a quick motion too. No time wasted dawdling. Cool! It looks like Brenda finally left the kitchen. Maybe she got hungry. Everything smells sooooo good!

    ***********************

    CRPl7ra.jpg

    The cook cheerfully brings Tony his order.

    ***********************

    1jICpjP.jpg

    Unfortunately for Tony, Thornton took the seat that should have been Jennifer's. Lucky for Thornton, while I didn't see him ordering food, his food order got delivered at the same time as Tony's, so that was pretty neat.

    Oh, there's that Lorenzo chap in the blue beret. He is a much loathed paparazzi. There's been a sort of a Sim style hit out on him for several weeks now, but the powers that be, just CAN'T GET RID OF HIM!!!!! And sure enough, it doesn't take long for him to start snapping pictures of Jennifer. Tony tells Lorenzo to leave the restaurant. Sims would like to dine in peace!

    ***********************

    KpJIncw.jpg

    And just like magic, Tony's apple pie and Thornton's (cobbler?) arrive hot and delicious! I am really loving this Industrial oven!!!!

    ***********************

    j3fi3zs.jpg

    Tony doesn't really like Thornton. Not many people do because he is such a grouch, but the delicious apple pie at Dindwells, tends to make people think only pleasant thoughts... for a little while anyway.

    Jennifer still can't decide between blueberry pie and cherry cobbler.

    ***********************

    PJNiSSy.jpg

    Brenda's order is ready. Gotta love the look on the cook's face.

    ***********************

    RQSxsZ2.jpg

    Brenda loves her cheesesteak sandwich, but did she really need to get all dressed up for it? ;)

    ***********************

    oFmkSM5.jpg

    The soothing effect of the apple pie seems to have worn off. Tony is getting very irritated. Lorenzo, the annoying paparazzi, is back, sans beret, and begins to once again, start snapping pictures of Jennifer. Tony escorts Lorenzo outside.

    ***********************

    Khdvnsp.jpg

    Words are exchanged but Lorenzo isn't getting the message. Looks like Tony will have to deliver it in another way.
    And curiously, here's a horse's back end photo bomb.

    ***********************

    2i9XRU1.jpg

    And so, another day at Dindwells.

    ***********************
    Thanks for viewing! I have two more very large updates and some smaller ones as well. Don't worry, I didn't forget!!!

    Here are the photos I promised. Thanks again!

    1. Lovely Leaf Chair - As soon as I saw these chairs, I fell in love with them because they reminded me of Thanksgiving. I recolored them in shades of pumpkin.

    2. Frost-Bite Pro Ice Cream Machine - Wow this ice cream machine has been awesome to play with. I love the different flavors!

    Hi Guys, This is my final update for the photo thank you thread and it's a big one! After this update I will be all caught up on all the amazing gifts I received since last summer and wanted to make sure to get my last thank you out to one more incredibly generous person before the busy holiday season arrives (which will be any minute now, lol) and I'll be short on free time soon. So here it is!

    Thank you so very much, @creativity_rulez, for gifting me the enchanting world of Midnight Hollow in your Creation Challenge Giveaway last summer. It was the first challenge I ever entered and it was a lot of fun! Sorry it took me so long to get the photos up here, but I never once forgot about it, (switched to new computer in the midst of all this). I looooovvvve Midnight Hollow!!! It's absolutely gorgeous! My photos do not do this beautiful world justice. I thought about lightening up the photos, but wanted to keep the dark and mystical theme going. I used no mods and no brightening of photos. This is Midnight Hollow's natural light.

    Also, the Savvy Sellers Collection is the bomb, you can use it for so many different things, and I can use it in all of my worlds!

    Thanks again so much!!! It's really very amazing! :D

    Welcome to the dark and mysterious world of Midnight Hollow. Raven and Brandy just moved here, after making a quick getaway from... well, they would rather I not say where they came from... but they are super excited to explore their new world, but of course they can't show that or they'd stick out like a sore thumb! No, they must remain cool and aloof. No jumping up and down and screaming when they're happy. None of that. You're not in Kansas anymore (and you never were!... never). >:)

    Nice starter house here ~ This is the first house that the sisters, Brandy and Raven, chose. It's quite small. It reminds me of the
    Monotone House in Sunset Valley, which is why I ... er.. they, chose it. Since the sisters have been earning some good money, they are
    anxious to move to a larger house. Happy house hunting, Girls. You're going need all the luck in the world. You just never
    know who your new neighbors will be in Midnight Hollow.

    Here's the last set, part 3 of 3.

    Here is the wonderful Golden Ticket Toy Shop!!! The name always reminds me of Willy Wonka chocolate
    bars. :p
    These photos were taken in Sunset Valley. For some reason, when I went to take photos, the toy shop was missing from
    my library bin in Midnight Hollow. I thought it was there the last time I checked. Hmmmm... Oh wait, maybe that was the old
    computer.
    Oh well, lol, on to the toy shop! And just in
    time for Santa's (or the Grinch's) big holiday season!

    The Golden Ticket Toy Shop is a 'hot spot' in Sunset Valley. Adult Sims are always going there to hang out.
    I hear the new owners of the toy store will be adding more objects for their customers to be able to spend more time there.
    Oh, and the kids too. Can't forget the kids.

    Here is the Titanic Toy Machine!

    Back in Midnight Hollow, Brandy makes a jack in the box toy using the toy machine in the comfort of her own
    tiny home. There are many toys to choose from to make.

    It's so much fun to see you happy with your gifts :) I'm glad you enjoy them so much! I haven't got SimPoints, so I'm always happy to donate anything I might receive, it's the 'giving back' part of it, it's great to be able to give, even if it's indirectly haha. I always thought when I'd own the store it would be my turn to go gifting, but sadly I got cut off from ads a while before they were even really gone. So I just enjoy donating any possible SimPoints I get nowadays haha!
    Don't forget to take care of yourself every now and then in this big chaotic world!

    Well, I do appreciate it very much, @SjappielovePaul. I know it's much harder these days for anyone to donate points since the ads have stopped. I stopped playing for five years (wow, that sounds terrible, lol) and as soon as I came back, the ads had just stopped. Go figure. I'm glad you got a chance to enjoy the gifting part of it this time. You're very sweet! Thanks again!

    Thank you, @ZeeGee, for donating the wonderful gifts below. That was sooooo nice of you! An unexpected surprise. :blush::smiley:

    I received these fun goodies for taking part in the Gift of Creation Game. :smile:

    My model today is Anipa, a NPC from Hidden Springs. Anipa is modeling the Rocker Outfit. I knew as soon as I saw this outfit, that I would love it! It's so cool! And I love black.

    This is the Hot Haute Hot Spice Rack from the Haute Hacienda Kitchen. I have been eyeing this cabinet for quite some time. It's as lovely as I thought it would be. All my Sims are going to have one of these in their kitchens. :smiley:

    Here's Anipa in the Sporty Tank Top. I love this top! I always wished I could find an actual work out top that doesn't include a jacket and this one is PERFECT!!! Here it is in two colors. You can also make it two toned. Did I mention I love it?

    Thank you so much, @CravenLestat, for the most awesome World of Wonder Carousel Collection in your Guess That Hottie Sim Contest! I guessed that Craven's hot babe, Jasmine Disney princess, was actually Anipa Bhatt from Hidden Springs (and believe me, it wasn't easy). :smiley:

    I was soooo excited to get the carousel collection! It is an absolutely beautiful set and Sims love spending time here. I was also thrilled to have the World of Wonder Popcorn Machine and Cotton Candy Maker! Yey! And along with that are the Whack-A-Set games for everyone to play! I love all the new animations with this set. The detail on this set is amazing! The carousel itself is
    stunning! I love it!!!!!! <3

    I also had a big surprise when I played this set for the first time. I didn't know the venue was already set up. It's so much fun to get a new venue that is ready for you and your Sims to enjoy and that, we did.
    Thanks again so much, CravenLeStat!!! It's really a gorgeous set! :D

    The set has so much fun going on that I will do about four updates
    with photos, a bit at a time.

    Part 1

    Welcome to World of Wonder!

    Part 2 of the World of Wonder Carousel set.

    Now if you loved the cotton candy maker, and you all know who you are that do ;), you will probably also be craving hot buttered popcorn, once
    you inhale the aroma of World of Wonder's infamously golden popcorn, like little Aiden did here.

    Unless you experience it yourself, you can't imagine how much fun this machine is,
    with it's pop pop pop.... pop pop...sounds. The mood it creates while watching those fluffy kernels dancing under their little yellow stage lights is.... just... well, you'll have to try it. I love it!!!

    ZDNbZe4.jpg

    With a full box of freshly popped popcorn in hand, Aiden heads over to find his sister, Alyssa, to share his salty treat. Or at least that's what Dad tells him to do.
    "Aw, gee, Dad, do I have to?"
    Dad's squinty-eyed stare gives Aiden his answer.
    No doubt the scent of hot crunchy popcorn wafting through the World of Wonder carnival, will cause other Sims to get a box of their very own before they even know what happened. All they know is they just had to have it.

    Here below, we have Maury Mounds. He and his wife, Ida, own the Deliciously Indulgent Bakery in Sunset Valley. Maury has a particular weakness for cotton candy, it's practically an obsession. He would love to find a quiet place to rest his old dogs, they're killing him from all this walking, and to enjoy his cotton candy in peace. He also wants to escape his wife, Ida, bless her heart, he loves her dearly, but she's been after him for the past half hour to perform on the carnival stage in some silly costume. Can't a grown man enjoy his cotton candy without all this buffoonery?

    Keith and Aiden run over to the Wack-A-Set tent.

    Speaking of obsessions, it's no secret that Keith has it bad for Wack-A-Set. He sometimes finds himself lying in bed at night, longing to go back to the carnival long after it closes it's gates, to see if he can beat his highest score. He just knows he can, especially without the added stress of the skeptical eyes of his non-game playing neighbors and friends. He figures, as a firefighter, he could probably get away with it too, saying he was checking things out... you know, like a safety inspection... at midnight. No that won't work. Sensibility prevails, and he usually just falls asleep.

    Aiden and Alyssa go exploring. Their unspent allowance is burning holes in their pockets. They giggle as they notice old Mr Mounds sneaking out back by the Wild Wagons of Wonder holding a huge cotton candy. He calls it fairy floss. They notice he doesn't seem to hear his wife calling him, "Maury! Maury! Where are you?" His ears are probably getting old, they think.

    Maury has finally found the perfect spot. Not only was he able to enjoy his cotton candy in peace without Ida snatching huge wads of his pink confection from him, but he also bought a snow cone. Oh, the icy wonder of it all. Ida loves snow cones too and wouldn't be happy if Maury had one without her and he knows this, but ah, the solitude. Later at home, Ida tells Maury, aw, shucks, she missed out on getting a snow cone, probably the last one of the year before it gets too cold. Maury sighed and agreed with her, but his blue tongue told another story.

    And so we end part 2 with the pop pop... pop pop popping of the warm glowing and delicious smelling popcorn machine. I could watch it all day. Is that so wrong? ;)

    Continuing on with pictures of families enjoying the World of Wonder Carousel set from CravenLeStat.
    I also posted these photos in the General Discussion thread but will keep my photos here from now on to avoid double posting. :)

    The World of Wonder Fair just opened up. Anipa and Sebastian can't wait to go! It's a cool, late autumn day and it won't be long before winter strikes, but the fair will be open until the first significant snow fall. Hidden Valleyans aren't wimps, after all.

    They do not live far from the fair, but Anipa wants to show off her new car for Sebastian!

    The first stop? Cotton candy!!! <3

    But Sebastian has something else on his mind.

    Yeah, yeah, I know.. not exactly 'going to the fair' attire, but what the heck.
