OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 1144th 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:

There were ventures that I already knew and others that I didn't, so it was pretty cool in that sense. The one that caught my attention the most was a personalized carpet store called D'Lana Store and that was due to several reasons. They had exhibited different models of carpets, they had a screen on which they played videos of the process of making them, there was also the wool they use in different colors, the device they use and a list of prices.

As you know every day we are getting closer to Mother's Day, a very special day to celebrate that beautiful, brave and generous woman who brought us into the world, that's why every detail we make for her must be up to par.

That is why today I bring you the step by step of how to make a beautiful mini cake in the shape of a heart, decorated with Chantilly cream. This is a very beautiful gift that will sweeten her day a little.

Everyone in life goes through difficult moments, unfortunately some stay on the road without trying to fight, others cling to life and full of optimism and hope we get up ready to move forward, I am not one to back down, I always say while there is life, there is hope, who said fear.

"Father and son are two. Mother and child are one" Lao-Tse. Describing motherhood from another perspective, I have written this as an entry to Hispaliterario 20 in honor of mothers on their day. Writing I realized that I wanted something different, because not all women can be mothers, understanding motherhood as something more than procreating.

Greetings to all foodies, it has been a long time since I have shared a recipe, however, I continue to exercise my passion at home and every day I enjoy cooking for my family, especially my grandchildren, that's why when I saw the I wanted to participate in the Blue Desserts contest, that same day I went to the pastry shop and bought blue food coloring, but I still hadn't decided what to do, that's when my grandson asked me to make Cupcakes, so I agreed, but I didn't want to do some simple ones with only vanilla, that's why I decided that the flavors would be special, including banana, coconut essence and my family's favorite which is dulce de leche. I hope you like my recipe, I think you can make it for birthdays or simply to share with the little ones in the house, because being blue it draws children's attention. I invite @/drhueso @/chacald.dcymt to participate

This morning I woke up SORE! My back, my arms, my legs! Everything! And to be fair, yesterday was the first day I'd woken up and done a small exercise routine in a long time. So this morning started with a 20min Yoga 'workout'. I must admit, although not something I would usually do, it's given me a nice little buzz this morning.

While the museum and shop are open every day, they usually only have tours into the mine on Saturday/Sunday. However, since this was the week after Easter and spring break here in NJ they offered their tours also during the week - yay us!

The below pictures will give you an impression of the mine including the way workers got to their workplace back when it was run. Being a zinc mine as opposed to e.g. coal the interior of the mine was really pretty clean. I mean rock and water and all but no dust or such.

Last week, logistically, was a very intense week for me in which I started my work week in the north of Spain, on the Cantabrian coast, where I spent the beginning of the week with abnormally high temperatures and spectacular weather.

This drink combines the sweetness of the cambur with the acid and fresh flavor of the orange, creating a perfect, healthy and natural mix. In addition, this juice is rich in vitamins, minerals and fiber, so it is also an excellent choice to start the day with energy and vitality, has a creamy texture, is beneficial to the body, the orange is rich in vitamin C and other antioxidants, while the banana is a good source of fiber, potassium and other important and essential nutrients, contributes to good mood.

Today I woke up thinking about the Rubik's Cube, the one invented by Rubik. Yes, one can become somewhat obsessive about anything without intending to. While washing the dishes, ideas were swirling around in my mind. I know some people think that's not a man's job, although others say it will help me connect ideas. Well, I read that somewhere. Maybe it's a feminist strategy to emancipate oneself from such work.

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.
