Fudge aged up as did the four babies. Plum and Blackberry played musical jobs and had daily foot races to the carpool. They both got notifications that they were about to be fired, but somehow they always managed to move the performance bar up into the green in time. There was a lot of toddler skilling and we saw Pineapple grow up too. Pop and Fudge set a lot of booby traps that poor Plum had to set off.
Update 1 (August): I forgot to get this posted before my vacation and it was scheduled during that time. Luckily I was near wifi and was able to hide this post as it just had the above paragraph. Three weeks later, Pop is a teen, which means I have shots somewhere hiding. And they were found. Here are 22 shots from last month I can’t remember shit about.
Update 2 (September): It’s SimNaNoWriMo time at Boolprop and I have chosen these idiots with the goal of another Gold Medal. Sorry you had to wait for the update for two months.
Fudge: Homework is stupid. We already know I’m the heiress, so why should I put any effort into impressing you people?
You made the honor roll, so I could care less what you do now.
Blackberry: Pshaw. I always get this warning and I always manage to make it to work before anything bad happens.
Pop: I decree that you must bow to me everyday forever.
I can’t tell if he’s making his bed or going to bed.
Pop: Hey, birthday time for me! Thanks for forgetting my cake.
Whoops.
Plum: Did someone say birthday?
Pop: Nevermind, it’s over.
Plum: Hahahaha Everyone forgot about you, loser!
Pop: Will someone please send me to boarding school?
Pop does get his makeover and I’m having a hard time seeing who he looks like. I think it’s more Blackberry than I originally thought.
Pop heads outside to workout in the garden and I’m pretty sure Blackberry is going to play in the sprinklers.
I have no clue what is happening here. I think Plum made waffles for everyone and no one was happy about it.
Pop did get his wish! Plum wanted to enroll him in boarding school. I think it was the Peace and Love one.
Plum: I am so sick of you and your booby traps. I can’t wait until you leave this house!
Pop: He should never have stopped to scold me. I hope he enjoys peepee shoes.
Blackberry: The taxi to boarding school can’t come fast enough for me.
Blackberry: Why are my feet wet? Omg. EWWW!
Charmie Blowpop-Pepper (she married Dr. Pepper) asked to bring over her son, Cale. Plum agreed, but Charmie showed up alone.
Pop plays basketball while Charmie enjoys the water slide.
Then she noticed Plum in the garden and runs over under the guise of playing in the sprinkler.
Charmie: Doesn’t my butt look cute in this bathing suit?
Plum: I’m not looking.
We are now all caught up in my pics. I should note that now I had played and forgotten to remove my expansions. The Tart’s are now playing in the full game, which means that Sugar Valley is not long for this world, but I’m gonna try and pack up everyone and just move them to a better town when it seems like a good time. I’m hoping to stick out until Fudge takes over though.
Pineapple: I decree that you must play tag with me.
Pineapple: I do not care that you’re hungry! Peasants will only eat when I say so!
Razzleberry is unhappy for no reason.
Fudge: All crying babies will be drawn and quartered!
o.O
Plum hits up the fridge and calls everyone to dinner, which apparently includes Charmie.
Now we take a break. Old Guy won an Express CrockPot (his company owns all kitchen gadgets/appliances) at work and now I’m being forced to use it. I’d much rather have gotten the Margaritaville so that I could play and drink Pina Coladas.
Fudge: Woo, birthday in he dark!
She’s actually really cute. She has Grandpa Ash’s eyes, the Sorbet mouth and I think even Ash’s profile. I can’t recall what she rolled, but it came up blank anyway.
Fudge: Haha, you wish you were awesome enough to shove your own arm through your heart like me.
Pineapple: There are dishes to be cleaned, peasant.
Blackberry: I have an iPad that can swat your butt, little man.
Pineapple: You cannot abuse your king!
Blackberry: Keep it up, little man.
Of course, Fudge runs out to the rock wall.
Plum: You’ve been here for days, don’t you think you should go home?
Plum: Yeah, you gotta leave before I get myself into trouble.
Pop finally leaves for boarding school.
Lemon
Cherry
Cherry and Lemon got Blackberry’s random green eyes. I think Cherry got Ash’s skin.
Razzleberry
Tangy
Razzle and Tangy got Grandma Raspberry’s eyes. Razz got her hair too while Tangy got Ash’s. I think they got her skin color too.
There was a 3rd one too. Tangy, Lemon and Razz are all sent to boarding school. That leaves Fudge, Pineapple, and Cherry at home.
Fudge: Look at me doing dishes. I’m so cool.
Plum does get to go to work and I laugh because now that Blackberry can go too, it’s her day off.
The nursery is converted even though not everyone will use it after they leave.
The outdoors is one giant mess of things to do. I’m not even going to organize it.
These kids never do anything fun. I think Razz was off to go on the swings, but I was having Plum walk around to send them all to bed.
Fudge: Why is she yelling at the door?
I have no clue.
Plum wanted a regular woohoo, so afterwards they hung out chatting.
I think there’s a small issue with the beds.
I re-arranged the living room portion and put in a chess set. Blackberry is addicted.
I was scrolling around town and decided to hover over Fudge. This means Ginger and Charlie will be swapped to men.
Plum: Mr. Breadbox doesn’t like the steam from the dishwasher. He told me to move him. I said suffer you stupid thing.
800 hours later, the kids leave for boarding school. The school bus came and then disappeared off screen. The kids were still queued to go to school at least.
Blackberry: I want my kids back!
Too bad.
Then Blackberry runs off to work.
Fudge has the whole house to himself and chose to spend that time on the trampoline.
..and fix the washer. Please don’t die.
After fixing the boiler, Fudge stayed at school.
She may have set a trap or three.
IF graveyard is on top of the hospital. I got tired of them asking to come out to play every five seconds.
Another day, another forgotten birthday.
Pineapple heads straight for the basketball court.
And is then challenged to a shoot out with Cherry.
Fudge finally moseys home in need of food.
Fudge: What is that weird noise?
It turns out to be Pineapple being abducted.
Pineapple: It was so scary, they strapped me down and probed me. My hands are no longer my own…. No, don’t let them kill me…aahhhhh!
Then I got serious lag and reset the town, all the kids are now home again.
That makes this the perfect place to stop for now and considering how boring this house is, it seemed for a sim week to take forever.
Torch Holder: 1
Self Wetting: 3
Single Births: 3
Quad Births: 1
Honor Roll: 2
Tart: Bent Out of Shape 
Wow, this girl Fudge is really gorgeous.
What expansions were you leaving out before; I’m thinking I might need to leave out some expansions from some of my challenges, the Rourkes are almost unplayable, there’s so much lag. Took me 6 hours to play through a sim week today.
The original Tart’s started right after Pets came out. I only know this because when I looked at Chapter 1 of the original Tarts, the stupid Ice Cream Truck was right there. The game is almost unplayable with all the packs in Sugar Valley.
