			<link>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=8317</link>			<guid>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=8317</guid>			<description>I'm beginning to get bit frustrated with a some reports that my Tiki match items crash the game.
The tiki match files uploaded here at TSR do NOT crash the game!
I understand that a while back there was a server issues at TSR that could possibly have caused download issues that may or may not have resulted in corrupt files (no-one was able to reproduce this error, but I can't rule the possibility out).
Upon receiving messages of an issue, these files here at TSR, have been tested by several downloaders over the past months. In all cases the files were prooven to be 100% fine!
If your downloads from TSR for some reason corrupted during downloading, please re-download. If you still have issues I am more than happy to try and figure it out with you, just send me a PM.

If however you did not dl them at TSR I cannot help you.
I know for a fact that these files have been shared elsewhere without my permission. Those files are indeed corrupt and will crash your game!  I do not know why, but can only say that they are incomplete files as they are less than half the size they should be.
I cannot and will not offer assistance when it comes to those files.</description>

			<title>MIA</title>
			<link>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=7496</link>			<guid>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=7496</guid>			<description>Hello everyone.
Sorry for having been MIA for several weeks, it was not a planned absence.
To make a long story short, after havign been sick for more than a week, my PC was toasted during a snowstorm/power outage (as if 30+ cms of snow in April wasn't bad enough).
I purchased a new PC on Friday and managed to set up almost everything over the weeekend. Most back-up has been restored (a bit more to do tonight, I hope). Therefore I should be able to upload several sets within the next week or so.
For those waiting for the remaining Tiki Match sets, I have more than half of the pieces completed. A few I have to be re-created :( (wasn't a very recent back-up), and a couple of further pieces still to start on.
They will be released in 3 Sets- One more for the Livingroom (including a 3 seater sofa)and then Kitchen and Bathroom.

I am hoping to then be able to move on to my frequently request &#34;Zen-sational Living&#34; nursery match set as well as a Nursery to match Maxis' GL series. A couple of food/meals are alos on my short list.</description>

I accidentally uploaded my &#34;work in progress file&#34; for the end table, rather than the finished one. So, if your Adirondack end table seems to have gone astray, that's my fault :(. Please re-download the end table, as I've updated it with the final file (with the new GUID).

Second, I've received quite a few more requests for Tiki match items.
I am still working on several more that will be ready for publishing soon.
At present my list includes the following, although not limited to: Tiki sofa &#38; Ottoman, DW, Fridge, Trash compactor, 1x1 dining table and possibly a stove. 

Due to requests, I'm also working on a recolor set for the crib and bedding to match my cushion recolor.

I am also contemplating a Tiki match bathroom, but have not finalized any designs yet. my plans are for a mirror, tub, toilet, and shower (no sink as any sink and Tiki counter should cover that).

Fell free to PM me with any additional items on your Tiki wish list that I may not have thought of. I can't make promises, but generally consider all.

			<title>My Food Downloads</title>
			<link>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=6460</link>			<guid>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=6460</guid>			<description>A couple of people have stated that my custom foods don't work in their game, that the sims prepare the food and then it disapears.
Please read the download information!
All my food downloads state that the custom plates are required. If you do not have all the required custom plates the food WILL NOT work, it will disapear once finished cooking as the game cannot find the plate(s) to put it on!

			<title>Missing in Action</title>
			<link>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=3996</link>			<guid>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=3996</guid>			<description>I know, I haven't been around as much lately. Real life has gottn in the way and I haven't had as much time to create as I would like. Re I am still around though and am working on new creations whenever I get the chance.

My Current project is &#34;Indian Cusisine&#34;. I have 4 meals ready as I type this and 6 more in the works. I am also making 2-3 sweet dishes. All of them should be ready in the next week or so. They will be published, split into 3 smaller sets (later to be combined into a superset).

I have several more creations planned for my &#34;Indian Inspired&#34; theme and hopefully will have time to work on them soon.
My current list includes: Kitchen, Bathroom, Decor set, Build mode set and possibly an outdoor set (let me know if I've missed anything, lol)

			<title>Seasons match Country Nursery</title>
			<link>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=3295</link>			<guid>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=3295</guid>			<description>I thought I'd take a short break from my Indian Inspired sets, and make a little set in celebration of the new Seasons EP.
So, I give you a new Nursery to match Maxis' Country Style objects. it consists of 10 new meshes, and 3 recolors. It is set to publish on March 23, and will be free from March 24 - April 6.
You can see the preview image here.
I will also be publishing a recolor set of Country Gingham nursery bedding, changetable and curtains in yellow, Pink, Blue &#38; Green this coming week.
Hope you like it :)

			<title>Indian Inspired Living Series</title>
			<link>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=3089</link>			<guid>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=3089</guid>			<description>Sorry for the late update, real life has gotten in the way a little, lol.
For those that might have missed it, I published my Indian Study this past week, along with the usual 3 recolor sets.
you can find the mesh set here.
I have received many comments and PM asking if there will be more in the series, some even with suggestions as to what they'd like to have added. Therefore I thought I'd let you all know what my plans are.
I am currently working on a matching nursery, which seems to be growing in size that it will probably end up in two parts, 1- baby nursery, 2- toddlers haven. Next on the list will be the bathroom, then the kitchen. I also have plans for a meal set as well as a build mode set :). I'm not 100% sure yet, need to find some more inspiration, but I am also contemplating a garden set- plants, herbs...will see.
That should cover pretty much everything but clothes and lots, lol.
If you do have some more suggestions send them my way, I'll see what I can do :).</description>

			<title>Indian Inspired Drape- Updated</title>
			<link>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=2870</link>			<guid>http://www.thesimsresource.com/artists/Simaddict99/comments/?blogID=2870</guid>			<description>Just a small update to my Indian Inspired Drape (from first set). After some testing we found that when this drape is placed right beside a single bed (double works fine) it blocks the Sim from using the bed. I therefore have updated the file to allow Sim intersection. If you wish to use this drape with single beds, please redownload it here.
Thanks :) </description>

This one focuses on the dinnigroom. It is set to puplish February 2, and the preview image can be found here.
I am also working on a matching bedroom suite (and possibly a Nursery - but not sure yet) :).
In the food category I am currently working on the Mexican Cusisine (as promised) and, as some of you may have guessed, Indian meals will follow :).</description>
