Sims, Um, Monday: Twins! Twice!

By Erika, on February 28th, 2011

It’s surprisingly wintry here. Like, “actual wintry” not “Pacific Northwest wintry” (which is where it’s 45 degrees and raining and everyone’s lawn turns a nice vivid green). The snow started last night, and it just didn’t stop.

Here’s my railing at a solid 6″ of snow. It eventually maxed out at 8″ before it . . . → Read More: Walkin’ In A Dishcloth Wonderland
