Food
Expo 2003 opens this Sunday
May
29, 2003 - by Bimbo NL
Its!
I
never really cared about the nation's food traditions, what my great-grandparents
ate, or whether my pixled body would prefer a flamingo egg over chocolates.
Not untill I got to know a distant neighbour, Mrs Johanna Grumblin. She
has been contributing to Simmerville web for more than a year, and she
has already influenced on sims' kitchen routines all over Sim Nation. And
she is not satisfied with this - this Sunday she opens the annual SimCity
Food Expo 2003!
- Mrs Grumblin, this must be a big day for you?
- But of course! I've been working so hard with this, and so have several
co-hosts. It will be a delight to finally get it all started.
The Food Expo will last for 3 months. Never before did the Expo get this
much publicity.
- That is right, when I asked the Sim Nation Food Association to host the
Food Expo here in Simmerville, my thought was that by having the event
ongoing for the entire Summer, there will be less stress and hurry about
it. More sims will get a chance to experience the good ol' market atmosphare,
and I think it will be easier to reach the goal, too.
Many volunteers - one goal
- So what is the goal for this huge event, Mrs Grumblin?
- Thank You for asking just that! Well, there is only one goal and that
is to reach out to as many sims as possible with food related knowledge
and inspiration that will enrichen the kitchen traditions all over the
nation. If we manage to raise the general interest in food, we will have
achieved a lot, I tell you!
- How will you manage this?
- We will offer neighbourhoods to become co-hosts. In that way they might
form a local Food committee that most likely will consist of the most food
interested residents. With some luck these groups will carry on the ideas
even after the Food Expo closes August 31st.
The Expo contest is open to both new and old objects
Secondly, we will invite all sims to create items, accessories, appliances
and recipes to be introduced on the many Food Expo markets. Each creator
can competite with 1 item per month, as we will award a winning item every
month! The prize is 500 Simoleons! Both old items and new items can be
sent in to me for participation, and it doesn't mind if the item was already
available on the web for years. The point of this all is to reach out,
you know, not necessarily to invent everything over again.
