Happy to report that a lot of the stuff from my recent To Do list is done!

Almost all of the special or seasonal items sold, even the XMAS stuff that I couldn’t get rid of. I pulled back some things that I can use, and sold more than a dozen scripted lunchboxes (filled and empty). Everything else is shifted to vendors at Reyes DFS Market – mostly ingredients and just 4 “special” items. Cooking down what I have to fill one of 3 remaining lunchboxes for future sale – 2 of which are an annoying kind that have to be worn to fill or use.

I have several batches of things to queue up and use ingredients; I’ve got animals rezzed out again to get 2 essential ingredients and will have to deal with the “meat” they provide so that it doesn’t build up again.

Considering doing “cooking kits” again on the “just add salt” theme – it’s annoying that salt is such a limited, expensive resource (one of the reasons I am divesting in DFS). There’s an oxtail recipe that uses a lot o beef and requires annoying side dishes so that may be the next kit.

A LOT of prims opened up after the sale items and vendors were taken down, and the large parcel will be prettified with trees. I’m keeping fruits that can be turned into high-EP booze so I’ve put Zaida Gearbox’s shotgun house on the “roadside” parcel with some cute planters on the portch. More trees and flowers there to come.

I took down the shop buildings and replaced them with lower prim versions for my non-DFS products (I need to get creative again). There are 8 fields in production on the main Tweddle parcel, and Dhughan now has his little farm over in Steelhead City on a 512 parcel of his own on the southern shore.

He went on a shopping spree, buying good quality trees, flowers, fencing, and furniture for his rustic cabin, and it’s really got curb appeal. It’s behind the “memorial chapel” so he may take on a sexton role. He has 3 fields, 6 beehives, and eventually will have the chicken coops (they don’t die if their “care” or happiness stat goes to zero). I may risk having him raise calves and heifers (which can die) but I have plenty.

Now, need to get him to “landscape” the Tweddle parcels as beautifully.

I’ve got 4 more stills that need to be started up to make tequila – one of the types of liquor that doesn’t require yeast. There are some newer, quick-brew recipes that only take 3 hours, so I have to start them when I can be inworld for the whole thing. I may keep those 4 stills working on just the quick recipes.

I have more re-arranging to do to make it look attractive AND work efficiently, and I have other buildings and trees to put up to screen the operation from the road. There’s an airport runway right next to me now (part of the popular ‘GTFO (Get The Freight Out)’ inworld game. So a sign is going up on the roof of one of my buildings to advertise Dhughan’s products (“Get On The Stick at Froobert’s”). LOL, and maybe put his old giant walking stick back up with a blinking red navigational light.
