Herbs and Spices Legacy Challenge

By Sunny & Missy

Hello! This is the first challenge my friend and I created. I had lots of fun making this challenge and I hope you enjoy it as well. I created this in only a day so there may be things that need to be added or taken away once I go through the challenge myself. Happy Simming!

Overview:

This is an 8 generation Legacy Challenge. The gender and style is completely up to you (except generation 2). Complete all goals before moving onto the next generation. Make sure you look ahead each generation because some may overlap with each other (start as a teen or teen goals). I will create a base game version in the future, but for right now just skip or make up a new rule if you don't have a pack. We will be adding colour's (yes we’re Canadian), no they don't make sense with the herbs and spices, but it's fun so that's what we're going to do!! I'm playing this for the first time so things may change, please let me know if there's any mistakes or if you think of anything to add to this challenge.

Rules

You can either start off with 0 money like the original legacy challenge or start out with starting funds, whichever is more fun for you!

You don't have to level up skills to level 10, unless the job states otherwise.

Complete job career, unless stated otherwise

Complete the aspiration each generation, unless stated otherwise

Cheats are fine if it makes the challenge more fun for you, otherwise try not to make yourself have an advantage over others, cc is fine

Must complete each goal for each gen, then you can go to the next generation, You can choose to do the optional goals

I suggest life span on normal or long, short if you want stress and a challenge!

This doesn't need to be a berry challenge, but if you want to you can make everything their fav colour!! 

if you play this challenge please use #herbsandspiceslegacy

Have Fun!!

okay i've got to get this off my chest because i feel like i'm going insane

a herb is a plant with leaves that are used to flavour and/or add aroma to food, either as ingredient or garnish.

a spice is a plant substance such as a seed, bark, root or fruit that is usually dried and used to flavour and/or add aroma to food. spices are not herbs.

an aromatic is a vegetable that is used at the flavour base of a dish, also adding aroma. aromatics are not the focus of the dish, and are added to give background depth. aromatics include onions, garlic (and other alliums), carrots, celery, ginger, turmeric root, and chillies (i.e. peppers). aromatics are not herbs, and neither are they spices.

and while we're here, seasoning by definition refers to adding herbs, spices, salts, sugars, or acids to enhance the flavour of the food, not to add new flavours. good seasoning will merely amplify or bring out what is already there.

i know they're largely insignificant, pedantic distinctions but it's something that really gets my goat lol alright thanks for coming to my ted talk

If you are going to burn an herb, ingest it, add it to a bath or have pets PLEASE be very careful with the herbs you pick. Also Libby is an app that lets you access books from your local library digitally! You might easily find some information on plants and such there. If you don't have a library card go get one 🔪

HERBS for Digestive Health🌿

To help improve and ease digestive disorders and issues.

Ginger

widely used to treat nausea, bloating and soothe digestive issues

Turmeric

used for digestive weakness and inflammation

Chamomile

helps settle inflammation and anxiety related stomach issues

Fennel

great to reduce bloating, cramping and relax stomach muscles

helps break down food

Cinnamon

helps regulate circulation, blood sugar levels, and digestive function

Increasing your consumption of some of these even slightly could make a big difference over time! Should be used with caution.

i just love when you see "beginner friendly" witch things and it's like "all you need is these herbs that you can't find at your local grocery store, a selection of crystals that took years to collect, and incense, which you are allergic to. but this is totally baby witch friendly."

it's like when jobs are entry level but require 7 years of experience
