Dialogue[]

Hotel introduction

Well hello, dear. I'm Grandma Ruthie. I'm known for making Grandma Ruthie's Oatmeal Cookies. I'm also president and CEO of RuthieCo., a division of Hollard Foods Inc. Isn't that neat?

Accept move-in

Well, that sounds lovely, dear. I'd be happy to live in [town name].

After building her house

Oh, this house is just fine, [player name]. It reminds me of the little cottage where I whipped up my very first batch of soft, chewy oatmeal cookies.

Request for more stuff

Oh, dearie, this is just fine. Don't feel like you need to give me anything.

Star Level 4

I personally add the dash of cinnamon that goes into every batch of Grandma Ruthie's Oatmeal Cookies. It's pretty much a full-time job!
My Oatmeal Cookies taste better because they're made with love. And 23 different kinds of flavor enhancement agents.

Star Level 5

That's my picture you see on every bag of Grandma Ruthie's Oatmeal Cookies. It was taken many, many years ago, and then artificially aged so I would look more charming.
When I saw my granddaughter bite into one of my oatmeal cookies and grin ear to ear, that's when I knew they were a success. That, and the day I made my first million Simoleons.

Best friend

Dialogue: Oh, isn't this neat? Aren't you just a perfect dear? Thank you, [player name].
Reward: Chair - Rocker blueprint
Message: Grandma Ruthie has given you a new chair blueprint! And with just the right dash of cinnamon, too!

In MySims Kingdom (Wii)[]

Grandma Ruthie moves to Spookane and opens up a cookie shop there in order to make sales with the citizens, whose demographic don't really buy her products. She plans to change this and hopes to run a successful business. Unfortunately, to Ruthie's surprise, her cute and "delicious" house frightens Yuki, since she saw bright colors fit with Yuki's age group. Goth Boy informs her that bright colors do not appeal to Spooky Sims like Yuki. That's where Ruthie depends on the Royal Wandolier to redecorate the interior and exterior of her business in order to attract new customers in the spooky demographic. After redecorating her cookie shop, Yuki asks for a cookie and Ruthie happily gives one to her. Ruthie even gets a makeover herself to dress accordingly to her new cookie shop!

Profile: Do you want to know the secret ingredient that made Grandma Ruthie's Oatmeal Cookies such a colossal success? Marketing. Sadly, Spookane's demographic just isn't buying her wholesome, homespun advertising campaign.
