Odd things I noticed about Seasons
Karen:
I just had one of my playables eaten by a cowplant while visiting another lot. I saved the game and went to her home lot. To my surprise, there was no ghost-image of the dead Sim, no "So-and-so has died on another lot" message. Everything else appeared normal, all her family members have memories of her dying, but I just thought it was strange. That message has been in the game for a very long time.

Mr. T and Albert Einstein had a water balloon war yesterday. It was actually quite entertaining, but I noticed some weird glitches in the animation. I noticed the sims 'flashing' from one spot to another just before they actually moved to a different spot. You have to watch very carefully for it. (I was getting close up for a photo or I wouldn't have noticed it.) Has anyone else noticed this?
My Kakashi and Iruka sims had a water balloon fight yesterday - and yes - I noticed that weird flashing thing too. I think I noticed it with the snowball fight as well, but i'm not sure on that one. (And I must admit that I find the idea of Mr. T and Albert Einstein having a water balloon fight very amusing)
As an aside:

the lone exception was with cep as usual that is broken
The CEP is not broken, you just need to reinstall it. It will work just like it did before Seasons, it just won't have the extra recolor options for Seasons objects yet. When correctly installed, it doesn't "break". Also, objects can blink blue for other reasons than a missing CEP, too.

Sim time moves slower in this game.
Sorry I jumped in with this, even though I'd just played one family. I moved the family, leaving behind all their stuff, and now they work fine. It was really weird - the clock only moved forward one Sim minute every eight seconds. But the garden acted like time was actually moving forward - it needed watering every couple of hours.
I haven't had any other problems - except I had to quit without saving last night because one of the kids got too cold building a snowman and passed out in the snow before I could get her inside - and I was afraid the social worker would come and take the kids away. The Prima guide makes it sound like it takes quite awhile for them to get that cold - but it seemed to happen pretty fast. For adults, it they're getting cold and you don't want to go through bringing them inside, just have them make out a little bit - that raises their temperature.
Plants (except for trees) will still grow and produce even in winter. And trees will go through their production cycle up until winter. Also, if you use enough of the ladybug houses, you never have to spray (you don't need them in the greenhouse, of course). Finally, I also noticed that a greenhouse attached to the house has to have more than half it's walls be greenhouse walls. I had two walls that were greenhouse walls, and only weeds grew. Then I replaced a wall between the house and the greenhouse with a greehouse wall, and they started growing - go figure. Actually, even though I haven't tried this, the Prima guide seems to say that it doesn't matter where a greenhouse is, if it has greenhouse walls. It just has to be on the ground. I want to try to have one in a basement...hmm.... :-\

Something that happened that I'm assuming is intentional is the Garden Club lady came, and during her inspection she went up to a flamingo and said something to the effect of "Eww, this garbage you have laying around in your yard is disgusting."
According to the Prima guide, flamingos are considered one of the "messes". I guess the folks at the Garden Club are snobs - go figure. :D
