This Mod is Compatible with AMB + FLS + LN + OLS + GEN
--------------------------
What This Mod Does:
This mod allows your Sims to have longer parties and I have tweaked how much food is brought to each occasion. There are three versions to chose from: less food, regular food and more food. This mod was originally made by freakishmanda. The mod seems to have been abandoned since it was never updated for Ambitions. Also, you can now invite 25 Sims instead of 15. If you do not have AMB but have the base game and/or WA.. you can download a compatible version here: http://nene.modthesims.info/download.php?t=397631

The following list is from the original mod: (this is the RB_LongerParties_RegFood version)
