    Theme for the week: A kitchen that contains a thankful item .
    Gallery name of the room: Thankful for Disneyland
    Origin id: Liel88
    The wall is by steemeal

    The thankful item that I used is a Disney painting, wich represents Disneyland Paris for me.
    Over the past 13 years I have been diagnosed with bonecancer 4 times, had many treatments, surgeries and an amputation of my left fore arm.
    I am extremely lucky to still be alive, to watch my son grow up and to be a loving wife for my husband.
    Disneyland has always been a great way for me and my family to escape stressful situations, unwind before oncology check-ups,reload after treatments or surgery, or to celebrate good news.
    I am very thankful that we have found our happy place and that the cast members there always make us feel extremely welcome and go to great lenghts to keep the magic alive for us.

    Theme for the week: A kitchen that contains a thankful item .
    Gallery name of the room: Hygge Fall Kitchen
    Origin id: QueenV815

    My thankful item(s) are the dog items like the jars of treats, dog bed, statues, food bowl. I am so thankful for my pups. They have definitely helped my entire family cope with the craziness of this year and they are the embodiment of unconditional love <3. I used the Danish concept of Hygge to inspire my build, hence the name. Hygge is meant to evoke a sense of comfort and coziness with contemporary touches.

    Theme for the week: a kitchen with something you're thankful for
    Gallery name of room: Thankful for Cats
    Origin id: MikkiMikkiMikkiM

    I chose to be thankful for cats! I have three cats, and they always cheer me up, and I wouldn't know what I would do without them! So in this kitchen I created a little area for the cats, there is 'cat grass' on the kitchen counter, and of course plenty of kibble on the fridge.

    Thankful for Cats is a lovely Kitchen that reflects your thankfulness for your cats! @MikkiMikkiMikkiM :) It is very nice that your cats cheer you up, and are a very special part of your life <3
    The design of the kitchen is very nice! The blue, white and grey colour of the walls are very nice! Very nice nook area with the pet food bowls, cat gym and cat prints on the walls. The packets of cat food look great on top of the fridge! The cat floor rug is a great touch near the door! The cat grass on the counter is great! Very nice dining area near the windows with the sweet cat plant on the table! Sims will enjoy looking out through the windows and seeing cats that are in their garden. The ceiling candle light is pretty!
    It is a special cat themed kitchen! Thankyou very much for entering this week’s challenge :)

    Thanks @Jazztizz! It's an honour that it reminds you of the shop from Markath! :D
    Love how cosy is your kitchen is & the messages that you have for your family! That's beautiful! <3

    Thanks very much. I made it all up. ^^ I'm my mom's only child (though I had two younger sisters by my dad I got to see in the summer and on weekends until they moved away). But I did have six kids and 2 grandkids. =) So I'm very grateful for my real family too. That collage of photos though is a favorite. I love it. Btw, I play vanilla too. Sometimes. I love your graphic too and your Saint-Exupéry quote. ♥.

    That's awesome!! Actually, I really like The Little Prince. One of my favourite books! :D

    The design and furnishing of the room is lovely! Very pretty blue and white colors and patterned floor tiling. The wood texture of the cabinets and counters is warming and homely. It is a great that there is a pet food bowl there for pets that sims have. The utensils, knife block, fruit bowl and dish rack are very nice homely touches. The hand wall towels are great near the sink for sims to use. Sims will enjoy having a cup of coffee from the coffee machine whilst waiting for meals to finish cooking.

    Sadly, my room has the profundity of a puddle so … good luck ...

    Thank you very much, dear @rosemow <3
    This kitchen is inspired by my real kitchen, although not the same, but your wall art is in the same place :blush:
    And in my kitchen a coffee maker and a bowl for my doggie can never been absent ;)

    Cuchina Ex Machina is a great industrial kitchen! @AlphaFFrog :) It is very nice that you chose the well travelled rug as your thankful item, and what you wrote is very special <3 It looks very nice in the room.
    The design and furnishings are very great! :) The supporting beam adds a great look to the room! Very nice weathered brick walls, and the piping on it is great! Very nice industrial style wood kitchen counters and bar and steel fridge, stove,sink and microwave. The stools counter is great for sims to sit and have a meal or a drink from the bar with family and friends. The type of stools suits the room style well! The bottles are a nice touch on the edge of the bar. Very nice coffee corner nook! Sims will enjoy having a cup of coffee after preparing meals. The fire extinguisher is great to have in the room! The wall knives, utensils, food wall board and hanging pans are nice home kitchen touches.Very nice windows for great outside views.

    CC used? Nope!


    The one thing I have been most thankful for this year would be family. Its been a very rough month, I have lost my grandmother and mother within 3 weeks of each other. Plus a few pointless family disputes and of course Covid and quarantine meant my large family did not meet together for Thanksgiving (plus I had to work that morning) at all. My amazing cousin and her adorable son decided to spend a last minute Thankgsiving dinner at my house. It was my first time ever hosting Thanksgiving at my house! Lol it definitely was not a traditional dinner since I didn't have a whole turkey. We had turkey chili with cornbread and macaroni and cheese instead! XD Despite that we had a fantastic time and watched movies all day. It was awesome!!

    I chose to recreate my kitchen to symbolize our Thanksgiving dinner. Please don't judge this kitchen build as its a dead ringer for my real life one, including the light placement!! :D Which is now a running joke between my cousin and I. My house was built in the late 50s and I am slowly renovating and updating it. The kitchen has a 50s-60s vibe to it and is very colorful. It looked pretty dang dismal when I first moved in.

    No matter what I do I'm always listening to music, even my sims builts are always full of stereos (I listen to my custom music). So in this hard year I'm thankful for music, for having the stuff to listen it all the time. Music makes life more colorful :) So here is my entry:
