No Nut November

Hundreds of Mr. Peanut commercials are edited to recreate (as best as possible) the film Clue, with Mr. Peanut as Mr. Body. The film is produced without the expressed written consent of Planters and its parent company, however, as no residuals are forthcoming due to the ongoing actors strike.

Use these items to enhance your city’s streets, walkways, highways, skyways, bridges, and so on. Enjoy 10 planters in various shapes and sizes. The larger landscaping blocks are designed to fit builds on 2-click/step foundations but will work with just about any space in general.

For the last three years, R. Madhana has been reaching out to women’s self-help groups to teach them about the commercial potential of flower pots made with coir dust, a waste product derived from the fibrous mesocarp (middle layer) of the coconut husk. She is now trying to empower local businesswomen to venture into this full-time.

With the help of a hot press die cutting machine installed at a demonstration unit in Srirangam, Ms. Madhana’s firm, ‘Saini Eco Products and Exports’, creates six- and eight-inch planter pots, and smaller ‘root trainers’ that can replace plastics in gardening and agricultural operations.

“Coir dust used to be thrown away earlier or burned by farmers. Few people are aware of the value-added products that can be made with it. These pots are completely biodegradable, and since the material is naturally absorbent, can reduce the amount of water used in gardening,” the entrepreneur told The Hindu.

Ms. Madhana maintains a training workshop in Srirangam and a production unit at Aranthangi for client orders. Coir is sourced from farmers in and around Aranthangi while the natural latex needed to bind the matting is brought from Kerala.

“I am trying to help more women join this sector in our district,” said Ms. Madhana. As a pilot project, she has tie-up with producers in nearby cities, to buy back the coir pots made with her machine.

The archive contained what you would expect: the manifests of slavers; ledger books of trade goods; inventories of foodstuffs; bills of sale; itemized lists of bodies alive, infirm, and dead; captains’ logs; planters’ diaries. The account of commercial transactions was as near as I came to the enslaved. In reading the annual reports of trading companies and the letters that traveled from London and Amsterdam to the trade outposts on the West African coast, I searched for the traces of the destroyed. In every line item, I saw a grave. Commodities, cargo, and things don’t lend themselves to representation, at least not easily. The archive dictates what can be said about the past and the kinds of stories that can be told about the persons cataloged, embalmed, and sealed away in box files and folios. To read the archive is to enter a mortuary; it permits one final viewing and allows for a last glimpse of persons about to disappear into the slave hold.

Port District

In one of her posts, Hancyan said that the area down by the port was a tourist destination. So, I decided to add to that idea.

Where the Wan-Goddard house used to be, is the Drea Salon. I plan on making a family of designers named Drea, so in my town history, the old owner of the property died and the city fathers decided to foreclose on the property and put it on the auction block to try to recover back taxes. Realizing that there was a dearth of skilled stylists in town, the Drea family decided to use all of their savings to purchase and renovate the property, and bring some much-needed fashion to Sunset Valley. And this is the result!

This lot came with the town and other than change out some of the interior furnishings for stuff from that Storybook set - and add a couple of mud-bath tubs from Around the Sims - I really didn't do anything to this lot. Oh! I did arrange the tattoo chairs to look like they were part of a barbershop, but nothing major.

Next door was a house. But since there are more houses in this town than I will have sims to stick in them, I decided to change it into a commercial lot - in keeping with the tourist-trap thing.

This is another lot from that Magic Kingdom Disney world, called the Crystal Arts and Music Studios. The ground floor has a bunch of musical instruments, and the 2nd floor has some artist easels. Anyway, it was originally on a much smaller lot, so I had room to add stuff. Like the parking for buggies and bicycles, the planters and the small stage in the back, and all the rest of the landscaping. The building itself was sort of a pinky brick color. Again with the Pepto-Bismol theme the creators of that world seemed to like so much. So, I aged it up a bit to better fit in with its new surroundings. On that tiny stage in the back, I used that "singing spot" that I think I got from @danjaley, plus some instruments. That little table with the umbrella came from Around the Sims 3 and is a foodstand.

Then next door - where Claire Ursine's lot was in the original town - is my firehouse. There was a pretty little park there, but since there is another park right across the street, I moved the one that was here elsewhere in town. Mostly because I really wanted my firehouse down in this area and didn't have anyplace else where it really fit.

Then - where the Frio lot was in the original - is this little lot. I haven't done anything to it yet, but I plan on using that industrial kitchen set and making it into a restaurant. Right now, it's a little tearoom - although to make sharing easier, Hancyan left the interior of the build almost empty. So, that works perfectly for me.

This is the final lot on this side of the street - and the only residence now. It did have wood siding, but I changed it to brick. Again, to fit in better with the area. I have 2 sims lined up to live here. The owner is a naive dude in the science track who took in a young, homeless "lady" who was wandering aimlessly around town. Unknown to him, she has "sticky" fingers and is on the run from the Pinkertons.

And this area of town is now done! I did build a tiny Asian eatery using that one store set down by the port. But I'll show that to you on another post. I've also started creating sims for this town - something I HATE doing, since I have to go into the hated CAS. And, I remodeled the Goth residence - getting rid of the graves since none of those sims have died yet. In fact Gunter's father is a little boy in this town. I do have to create some more "dead" sims for the town cemetery to replace all the Landgraabs and other sims that wouldn't have been around when the town was founded. Oh well. Gives me a reason to use some of that period stuff.

People keep listing these old commercial tire rims as fire rings, but I admit to a strong desire to get a few and paint them (preferably loudly for maximum kitsch) to use as planters. I don't even need planters. But the older I get, the more fully I find myself embracing classic blue-collar country decor. Who knows how long it'll be before I unironically get myself a welded junk sculpture of a rooster? What more perfectly defies the idea of sophisticated perfection like an old tire rim overflowing with marigolds? That's punk, in my heart.
