Our 78 year old Italian neighbour Josie might not remember my name, and may never get my pronouns right, but the thing is: We Are Besties and I am totally obsessed with her. She blasts disco music 24 hours a day. She chain smokes. She is so obsessed with Vegemite that she cut a holiday visiting family back home short because she was seized by Cravings. She took her first ever selfie with me. She flirts with my fiancé. Once I had to rescue her from her finding a lizard in her toaster. She drinks her first coffee of the day at like 4 am. Recently she told me “if anyone tries to take you away from me… I will kill them” with total seriousness and I fully reciprocate it. She is a constant source of chaos in our lives. I would do anything for her and I love her with all my heart

CAMPFIRE - SIMPLE LIVING FIX
First things first: let's fix a bug which makes playing in the Iron Age... Well, maybe not impossible, but very tricky.
Have you ever tried to use a campfire with the Simple Living challenge on? You know, the one which makes it so that you need all the necessary ingredients to be able to cook (came with Cottage Living, I guess)? I hadn't, for a long time. And then I have. And realised, to my greatest surprise, that when the challenge is on the only thing I can roast over a campfire are marshmallows. No hot dogs. No beetles. No fish, even though I most certainly just caught some and had them in my inventory. Huh?
My confusion just grew when I did some searching in S4S and discovered that EA made a separate interaction extra for this scenario: using a campfire while the Simple Living challenge is active. I tried moving some stuff around, but to no avail. After some 3 days of trying out different things and failing miserably (I'm modding level 2 or 3, at best...), I threw my arms in the air in despair and screamed internally: 'I give up; it makes zero sense! It's precisely the same interaction, only the lot trait is whitelisted instead of blacklisted! It should work, but those stupid options won't appear! Like if they weren't even connected to the campfire or something...'
And then it clicked.
Yeah. They weren't connected.
Well, now they are.
Put my fix in your mods folder and enjoy living simply with your freshly caught fish or beetles, or self-prepared hot dogs made of bread and meat (substitute)!
I used this opportunity to also disable the option to roast marshmallows when the challenge is on, because for real, there's nothing simple about marshmallows. The ingredients you'd need to make them yourself don't even exist in the game afaik.
Enjoy and lmk if anything doesn't work as intended!

Banters I love: That one between Varric and a romanced Bull where Bull absolutely unhesitatingly refuses to tell Varric a thing about what you two do in the bedroom even in terms of just the general vibe because that's private. Bull looked at Varric's habit of sticking his friends' sex lives in his books and said "Not today".
