Another mod I was glad to find: Retextured Potions. The vanilla Oblivion potions weren't bad, but a little dull. These retextured ones make me want to set them out on a shelf.

And the other mod I've been taking a look at is Trade and Commerce along with the Trade and Commerce Update/Patch.

Using a test save, I consoled myself the needed funds to buy the shop, the shop's furniture and hire a shop keeper, and I must say I like the way the store is set up to sell the player's items. You can of course sell the usual armor, weapons, and other things you get from dungeons, but you can always specialize. In Aeronwen's case, she would sell her potions and crafted items. This is the sort of mod I've always wanted in Morrowind; a place where crafted items could be sold. I've heard that there are such mods for Morrowind, but I've never found one.

The only thing I wish was different is the location. The shop is in Chorrel, right next door to Northern Goods and Trade. Seed-Neeus and her daughter are such nice people. Like a number of people who left comments, I feel bad about opening a shop right next to hers that could take away from her business. Of course from a roleplay standpoint it might not be so bad if the shop is selling Aeronwen's potions, pottery, paintings and bolts of cloth that she has woven.

Another reason I wish the location was different is because it's not close to any place where Aeronwen's family could end up living. Ideally I would have liked the shop either in Anvil (near Highwood) or Cheydinhal (near Millstone).

On the other hand, perhaps it's good that the shop is in a more neutral location since I will likely be greedy and have the family end up owning both farms; Millstone first since it's more like a private farm and the baddie they need to kill is a bit easier than the horrible lich they have to deal with the get Highwood, which seems more like a "commercial farm" with its brands of drinks and honey bars.

Anyway, there appears to be no problems in the test save and could be something for Aeronwen and Neldor to shoot for down the road since they don't really like raiding caves and basically killing bandits for a living. No matter where they are living, they can occasionally take a break from tending their farm and go to Chorrel with a load of crafted items to add to the store's inventory.
