Making Progress

The girls are steadily making progress, but nothing super exciting happened for a while so, naturally, I had to stir the pot. And so, I'm gonna tell you ALL about it.

A typical day for the Maxwell ladies is comprised of Nikia getting up, eating leftover pancakes for breakfast & running off to work leaving Janet to care for the house & little Rebecca. And Janet is only too happy to oblige.

First Celeb Gift!
 
First of all, Rebecca aged up into a super cute toddler.
 



Who is actually pretty easy care. Mind you, I do have the walker & playpen (with the mod to make them realistic) so it's super easy to plop her in one & let Janet clean house or garden. I try not to let toddlers wander too much since I wouldn't in real life. Just sayin'.

A typical day in Janet's garden.
 
Now, Janet has been so good to Nikia & I've actually grown a little more attached to her since I play with her all day while Nikia is in the rabbithole. Besides that, she's going to be the nectar-maker... so I sent her off for a small vacay in France.
 
... And I'm unsure if France is ready for Nikia.
 
"Bonjour mes amis!"
 
France! Woo! Janet was pretty stoked to be there & decided to take in the sights.
 
 
 The park was a natural starting point, surrounded by little shops & a cantina.
 
 
The first stop was the general store since she *had* to have an incense burner. She also bought a Chest of Alouette to store seeds in.

 
Next was the relic shoppe. Nothing really interested her much, but she bought a couple of cheapy French vases to give as gifts.


The bookstore was a hit with Janet, of course. She decided to park herself there for quite a while... until I got bored & urged her onward.

Only you would come to France to read.
 

Next up was the Art Gallery.

 
Naturally I got bored in 2 seconds there. Off to the Nectary!!!

Janet was very impressed with the Nectary. She kept 'Ooh-ing' & 'Ahh-ing' at all the cases of nectar; then she tried some.


And that was the beginning of something great, apparently. She drank a lot of nectar.


I mean a lot of nectar.

So, once she was effectively soused she stumbled back to the base camp to sleep it off.

The next day was pretty much the same, though she decided to mingle with some of the locals. Most were cordial at best, some downright loony, but two really peaked her interest.


Laurent Durand was the first. He was happily fishing when Janet decided to accost him & trade kitchen secrets. It was an instant attraction. They talked for hours, no flirting (he's happily married) but they're now good friends.

The second was Yves Bernard.

Awww... Floaty hearts.
 
Lust at first sight. These two BSed for *hours*. From mid afternoon until the wee hours of the next morning. And in those hours, it got interesting. Went from chit-chat to jokes to expressing fondness to 'Oh my... you are sexy..."
 
Girlfriend? What girlfriend??
 

Then dear Janet made her move & he was more than accepting. I guess Mannon Goddard doesn't mean as much to him as he thought, eh?

Last day in France. Janet decides to buy a nectar maker, some grapes & try some Ratatouille. Then she wants to hang out with Yves. Sure... why not?

These two love to talk about food.
 
He was just chilling in his house so she decided to visit him & make conversation, but it quickly went from trading recipes to trading other things...
 

Geez Janet. I suppose even the helper needs love, right? So what if it's a guy in a whole other country you met the day before. Go ahead, have your fun.

And so that's how the vacation ended, with Janet finding forbidden love in France.

Back to reality...
