    One of the female hairstyles from Dine Out comes with a bandana. It's hard to see it in the picture but it's there!

    Wowowow the cowplant thing, totally gonna test that out. It sounds awesome! (As I'm such a cowplant fan.)

    I was excited about having a cowplant so after I fished up the seed, I planted it. The very first day it was fully grown, it ate my Sim’s husband. I noticed it said my Sims were going to “eat the cake” and I didn’t know what that meant. I was able to cancel the action for my Sim but not for her husband. I didn’t realize they would autonomously go out there and mess with the cowplant, so it’s now in my inventory. Geez, I didn’t realize a few weeks ago when I started playing this game that it would be so dangerous!

    Didn’t know that if you edit a restaurant lot and put a high chair in, your toddlers could technically dine with your Sims!

    Yes I really like that too! I edited the Fountainview penthouse and made it a restaurant with toddler chairs and a mini toddler playground outside (but usually the parents just to without their toddler and enjoy some quiet :D)

    Found out that thanks to the Laundry Day EP a feature now shows up when you select the floor in front of your washer and dryer..."Clean Floor". Your sim will mop up the floor though there is no puddles. Unfortunately it only lets you mop in that one spot. I was hopeful it meant my sim could now mop the house but nope.

    How does one assign an emotion to a memory?

    When you "search pocket" with the laundry stuff pack you can find a (not mounted) goldfish... I mean, I also forget my fishes in my pockets all the time :D:D

    @AshtontoAshton22 no they cannot. But there is a mod for that as far as I know.

    ^ Indeed there is a mod. I tried it myself, but it was buggy back then in terms of usability and the fact that children would stretch with certain interactions like feeding on sims.

    Don't know if this has been said, but if you click on a door and click the option 'lock door for everyone but [Sims' name] it won't keep out household members if it the door to get in the house, I tried to lock out my other Sims while two of them were on a date inside and the household members just walked right in and interrupted the date. lol

    Did you know that if your sim throws a pets ball in the pool they'll jump in to retrieve it?

    I just realized on accident today that if you're looking at your friendships etc in the relationship panel (home, friends, romantic, pets etc) that if you click on their picture you have options to text, ask to hangout etc. This blew my mind! For the past few years I've been using the phone for that. :D

    I didn't realized until today, that sims can throw the ball in the water and have their dog chase after it. Thought that was a neat little detail. I also discovered from a gurus twitter that vampire sims can actually take plasma from dogs/cats while performing surgery. :o

    I didn't know that as an adult, when you hover over a sibling/parent in the relationship bar it will tell you if you had a sibling rivalry for example or with a parent I got 'Good childhood' because there wasnt a lot of discipline and she had a good relationship with her parents :) I thought this was super cool! I'm sorry im so bad at explaining haha

    I just found out that neat sims can get an uncomfortable moodlet just because there's a pile of trash somewhere on the lot - they don't even have to be close to it.

    Do you suffer from the frequent and mysterious missing of your popcorn machines? Do you suspect your butler or maid for doing such a misdeed yet have no proofs whatsoever? No worries! Now you can have fresh made hot popcorns without concerning of your valuable kitchen application from being missing, because the solution is just that simple! Have a sim in your household to have the fresh cook trait and make some popcorns, and that’s it! I lost around 10-15 popcorn machines before I finally get so annoyed of going to b&b mode and replacing it, and tried to make some popcorns to see if it would still go missing. It won’t as long as there’s still popcorns in it! And for some reason my sweet Waltherchen always makes sure to make popcorns when some servings were taken away. Anyway, tho I am playing a vampire family, the popcorns do provides nice quick little snacks for my butler and the sim kid that Staud family adopted, and they also prevent me from paying that annoying 155 Simoleons constantly.

    Another thing I find out is that in the fossil collection there’s a sand worm one that does not show in household collections! It seems that it only spawns in Sixam yet I went to there so many times and never get a single fossil spawned? Has anyone got it without debug? Is that just of my bad luck?

    Speaking of that, when I did rotation play and change the current household to Eugen, the second son of my most frequently played household, it said fossil collection completed despite me not playing them for decades. I was so confused till I found all fossils in his wife Luna’s inventory. Seems that the game randomly chooses inactive sims to give some collectibles to use in Fleamarket? I let Eugen take all the fossil my main family don’t have and leave them there then sell all fossils remained...... Wait a second, did I sell a sand worm fossil?!
