[1.01] Introduction
For my neverending quest for Sims 2 Domination over the entire world, I will
mark this as my 29th guide. Note that I won't do the Deluxe edition as it is
the same as the Base Game and Nightlife placed together or the expansion
compilations since they are just games grouped together. Have fun reading!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[1.02] Version History
Version 0.1 [7/1/08]
The first guide for the new year, but misses out on the first update honours.
Version 0.2 [8/1/08]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[2.01] Holiday vs Stuff
There have been questions about the difference the Holiday version and the
Happy Holiday Stuff pack. It is relatively simple actually, and here are the
differences.
* The Stuff Pack contains all the items from the Holiday Version and a few
more as a bonus.
* The Holiday Version contains the Santa Claus and him deliverying presents to
your home.
* The Holiday Version delivers the New Years Baby as well
* The Holiday Version comes with the Holiday Roast and the Santa Cookies,
that unavailable to the Stuff Pack.
Therefore, gameplay wise, the Holiday Version or Upgrade will be better than
the Stuff Pack hands down. However, the Holiday Version is available only
in the Holiday Version of the Sims 2, which is combined with it. The Stand
Alone Pack, which I have, is not as widely available as the Stuff Pack. In
summary:
Availability : Stuff Pack
Gameplay : Holiday Version
Items : Stuff Pack
Overall : Holiday Version
You might be thinking, your maths are wrong, Stuff outnumbers it 2 to 1.
Since I'm writing here, the Gameplay is worth infinite points, therefore,
the Holiday Version is your best bet. There was a minipack for Happy
Holiday Stuff for the Holiday Version, but whatever happened to it, I do
not know.

"The "Classic" Wreath is the perfect decoration for any family. Each wreath is
painstakingly pieced together by hand. Every twist of the tiny metal wire
about each pine branch was painstakingly crafted by the children of the Tis-
the-Season Sweatshop. Finally when the last piece is in place, we carefully
shellac every inch of this beautiful wall hanging so that it may last a
lifetime. Let our wreath tickle your nose with the fresh fragrance that comes
from every spritz of the imitation pine scent (spritz not included). The

[4.11] Magic Mistletoe
"Ah the joy of kissing under the festive Mistletoe ... it makes sense this
nutty ritual began as a pagan fertility rite. Ancient druids used to harvest
the sacred plant off mystic oaks during the winter solstice to use in animal
sacrifices to insure a good harvest. Luckily, the only thing YOU need to
sacrifice these days is a few simoleons to enjoy this legendary holiday
decoration."

"S?ince Roman times, trees have been decorated with lights to honour the gods

[4.19] "Share the Bounty" Nutcracker
"Who better to crack your nuts than a symbol of tyrannical military power? In
the 17th century, nutcrackers were cleverly designed to resemble powerful
people like royalty, policemen, and soldiers. These caricatures of rulers
were place on holiday tables to perform the lowly task of cracking nuts. The
villagers would laugh and laugh as they crammed nuts into the little toy's
mouth and thought of how often the fruits of their labour were taken by
those in power. These days nutcrackers are widely viewed as a joyous symbol
of holiday cheer.

[4.21] Gingerbread House
"Sugar, almonds, ginger, nutmeg, tiny silver balls that crack your teeth ...
its just doesn't feel like the holidays without them does it? Yet just a few
hundred years ago these spices were unknown to Europeans until Medieval
Crusaders brought them back from their "travels." Catholic monks created
elaborately craved and spiced "cookie boards" depicting saints at Christmas.
Ironically, the modern gingerbread "house" instead of "saint" was invented by
the Puritians, who rejected traditional Christmas images."

doubt that flocked trees cause cancer, balding, fatness, aging and hunger.
Alternative tree coating methods recommended by the study include glossing
and flat laquering. Both techniques are guaranteed to not only protect the
family from the horrors of flocking, but will keep the holiday tree fresh
for decades to come! So when it comes time to buy your holiday tree, remember
don't flock it! Frock it!

about the tree at the end of the road. How did it get there? Was it happy?
And then I saw my mother coming towards me with a giant stuffed llama, and I
