It seems certain items such as food or paintings are culprits. The bug affects all types of players (console, never-modders) so IS NOT a mods/cc issue.

My Paranormal Investigator is limited to offering spectres floral arrangements so far as the bug affects Paranormal Stuff. I haven't tested knits or woodworks yet but it rather limits my PIs ability to do their job. ... Just flowers..only flowers. F**k this mess EAxis creates.

For what earthly reason would an update for a Stuff Pack need to break so much sh*+?

I recently encountered that as well when my teenage Sim wanted to give her crush a gift for the Sim equivalent of Valentine's Day. The menu simply didn't open, even though she had gifts in her inventory. I thought it might be a bug.

Here is another thread on EA Official;

Including the link in my comment above, these are all related to EAxis's UI_dialog_picker bug which is affecting a whole host of game packs from Cottage Living tasks, Seasons holiday gifts, werewolf pack contributions, university Society offerings, Scouts activity, and even giving toddlers food from inventory on the daily. (+more)

Welp..traditions are broken so that's my game left unplayable.
My legacy family's children are always Scouts..The bug prevents giving Charity gifts to complete the Giving Back badge.
All of my uni students are Secret Society members..The bug prevents offering sprites food which is required. (NPCs also offer food, which isn't within player control and may possibly throw LEs.)
All my spellcasters are werewolf pack contributors.
And of course..my Paranormal Investigator's problem was described in the previous comment.
Who knows what I hadn't yet come across.

Update news. everything fine now in my game.
i don't know what happened maybe they just minor update or something.

[Sovereign Dark]

They've done nothing. Players have reported it works sometimes and other times it doesn't. I have no idea why/how. But I do know it affects (ruins) far more gameplay than just offering sim to sim friendly presents.

Anyhow, whatever's happened, it's one part of it. I'm glad that's at least sorted for you.

FYI: There's another emergency patch coming out. I hope they patch the hell out of this bug,
