It is the end of season three, here at Cook with Us. The Cook with Us team, @chefsteve, @offoodandart and @pandamama, want to thank everyone that participated this season. We feel that we continue to grow as a community with each passing week, month and season. It is all of you that make this community so special. You all are very supportive of the regulars and the new members. Everyone puts in so much work to make high quality content each week and we appreciate all of your efforts. The technical information, cultural perspectives, dietary point of views and incredible personal stories all add up to the exceptional value that we add to each other and the Steemit community. Our goal since day one has been to provide a place for people, from all around the world, to come together and celebrate our shared love of food. Thank you for making that goal a reality.

We are in the holiday season and this is a time of giving. This week we are not judging winners. We are just celebrating our community and how generous you all are. This week you had to think of someone else and make something special just for that person. That is a beautiful and selfless gesture. To show our gratitude to everyone that posted this week, we will give everyone 5 steem. We wish we could give you much more as your efforts deserve it.

As a reminder, we are on holiday now until the new year. We wish the best for you and your families this holiday season. We look forward to seeing you in the new year!
