OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 1758th 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 friends, happy weekend to all; welcome to my blog. Today I want to address a very emotional and money-consuming topic, as Christmas is 🎄. And I say that it requires a lot of money because in these dates we usually spend more than the account and, mostly, we want to eat the traditional dishes of our country, such as the rich hallacas, the black cake and others. Each custom ends up adding more and more to the expenses we usually have at Christmas. And one of those that requires an investment are the premieres, especially when we have children and we want to buy them new clothes to receive the baby Jesus and the new year. This is one of the biggest expenses in my case, because it includes clothes, shoes and so on. This is not to mention the Christmas gift that tends to be more and more related to technology, being the favorite ones for children cell phones and video game consoles that every time they bring out a more updated version.

Yes, I know that from the beginning you have wondered what are dumplings and for those who do not know them here I will tell you what they are, dumplings are commonly small sweet or salty buns that are made from wheat flour, salt, water and butter, there are people who for more fluffiness to the dough add 1 egg yes since the egg gives us that soft texture like clouds to our buns, also for flavor I always saw that my grandmother added a tablespoon of vanilla and lemon zest, oh I don't know but this combination to my taste I love it when a cake has them, that delicious lemon flavor and vanilla essence.

Hello, happy day to all. With pink October all the activities scheduled in the city of El Tigre begin to give strength to the awareness campaign for the prevention of breast cancer, and also to support patients suffering from this painful disease.

Happy evening friends of Hive Food, hasn't it happened to you that sometimes you miss someone so much that you decide to cook their favorite food to feel them close. Today I felt nostalgic for my son who is 4 years away from me and I decided to cook his favorite food, he liked me to prepare vegetable pie and he liked it so much that he told me to teach him how to make it and then he would cook it for me. So let's move on to the ingredients and the step by step so you can enjoy it too, the vegetables are up to each one's taste or with the ones you have in the fridge, the important thing is to cook with love, that is the magic and secret ingredient.

Today has been quite a rainy day, in fact the electric current was absent for quite a long period, even so I had the time to study several songs that I have been browsing for a few days, today I recorded the song of Osvaldo Farres - Tres palabras... A quite soft and harmonious song, it has been interpreted by Luis Miguel (excellent musician).

After the rain stopped this afternoon, I decided to take a walk around the rice fields and small forests around my village. The expansive green scenery is truly stunning, with fresh rice fields as if covered with dew after rain. The evening sky is no less beautiful, with the clouds opening, displaying soft bright colors, as if providing a magical view after a storm.

I didn't miss the opportunity to capture the beauty of the sparkling rice fields under the twilight sky. In one of the shots, I captured a view of vast rice fields with distant mountains in the background, giving the impression of peace and tranquility. Every corner of this rice field seems to have its own story that I want to tell through the camera.

We understand that the autumn season is in full effect when the hawthorn ripens. This year, where I live, the hawthorns ripened early. I used to pick hawthorns as a child and this usually coincided with the last week of October. There is a 3-week change in the ripening period. We can clearly see the effect of global warming here.

Life is a journey full of learnings and moments that we treasure. When I reflect on my life, I realize that I am grateful for many things, that I have had what I want, love, family, friends, personal and intellectual growth, but there is always room to grow and improve, so even though I have everything around me that I have built and love, I always aspire to build new things and grow.

Greetings to my dear community, today I want to share a simple project with my costume jewelry followers, a new bracelet design made of small pearls, red beads and black beads that you can wear on any occasion. This bracelet is easy to make and the best thing is that you can combine the colors you like. It is a super easy design to make, and you invest little time. I invite you to follow me step by step.

The two clone troopers are supposed to have small visors on them which they didn't come with, which is a shame, but still, they're pretty cool.

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.
