OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 1092nd compilation post of OCD's latest curation efforts. It has been known that OCD has been supporting leading niche communities under its Community Incubation Program. However, there are still a lot of other niche communities not supported by OCD. This curation initiative will help in supporting those communities.

This newest curation effort aims to encourage authors to post in appropriate communities even if those communities are not under the incubation program. This will also encourage users to explore more into the different communities in Hive.

OCD curators and community leaders will find posts from other niche communities and recommend them for an upvote. Unlike those communities in the incubation program where curation is focused, this curation initiative is spread out. This will help find undervalued posts from smaller communities that deserve support.

This will highlight both the author and the community where the post is located. This way, smaller niche communities can focus on growing their subscribers and increasing the engagements within their respective communities. A small boost goes a long way.

Speaking of boost, here are the curated posts for this batch:

Hello, I wish you a great day. It´s my first post in this beautiful community. In my house we have many plants, some of them give very small flowers that are charming with all those miniature details. At this time of year, only four of the ones we have are in flower, so I took some photos to share with you.

As you know, over the past year, we have visited quite a variety of places. On many of our walks, I have encountered waterfalls...some were smaller in size while others have been quite impressive. In general, I love waterfalls. Whether it's small or big, just a little trickle or powerful, I love water, especially if it makes noise while it's moving...lol.

I tell you that a few weeks ago a cousin with whom I shared almost all my childhood and adolescence came to my house, but she moved more or less five years ago to Colombia and I had not seen her in all this time, so meeting her again has been very comforting and having her around and talking again after so many years is very nice. On her return trip she gave me some little boxes to make custard and fritters that are very traditional during the Christmas season in our neighboring country Colombia. I had never tasted the custard, and I was very curious to see how to make it and also to try it because everyone I asked told me it was delicious so of course I had to make it and show the result of it. I had no idea how to start but I did the best I could, so to all those readers from Colombia I apologize in advance, in case I did something wrong haha.

I don’t know exactly when, where, or how it started. Yeah, I have a round about idea when I started to wall myself off from the rest of the world. If you ask my wife and kids, it was about the time my physical health started declining. It came full circle once my brain decided to short circuit a couple years ago. Truth be told, if you asked me, and I was being honest, I went completely dark to the world once I medically retired last year.

When I was a teen, one of the first jobs I got was an overnight gig at a sports bar/restaurant. We were in the middle of a recession, and the only position I could find was as the dishwasher, and after the quickest interview ever, they hired me.

Tossing me the keys in case I had to get in when it was closed (they could tell I was trustworthy), I was left alone with a mountain of dishes in the kitchen. As I was coming in, the 2nd shit was leaving, and some of the adults would spend some time chatting with me.

This Weeks challenge will really get your brains working as you have to forget all of your normal strategies and think in a totally different way as the monsters will lose all their abilities and it is easy to forget this when you put your team together.

It's time to make an entry for ASEAN Hive Community Challenge#51. Joining the community's challenge is something that I look forward to every week. There might be times when I can't participate, but I told myself that I'd do it as long as there is something for me to write about and my schedule allows. This week's topic is "What Condiments Do You Have At Home?".

Today I brought a practical and delicious recipe such as lentil meatballs, hahaha I know you are wondering how they will be right? Well, I am going to share its quick and easy preparation. I have to be honest with you, this will be my first time making it since I knew about its existence when I ate it some time ago at my mother-in-law's house and I tell you friends I could not believe it haha that day I was delighted with its taste and how easy it was to prepare.

Today I woke up at five in the morning, my eyes opened automatically and there was no need to listen to the alarm (I don't like it) I get in a bad mood if that happens, but it is necessary many times, all at once I went to the yoga mat without thinking much and I put on the phone a 20 minute meditation, the truth is that I really liked it and it was great. I really concentrated a lot, it is rare, since after only two days meditating it is difficult not to think about other things.

Spring is approaching and like most animals, peacocks are now beginning to mate and show off in all their glory. They beat their wheels to scare off enemies and to impress females.

This concludes this batch's curation report. We would like to congratulate those who are featured and supported. Keep up the good work and continue to explore Hive Communities.
