OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 743rd 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:

For me, skin care is very important. When I was a teenager I suffered from acne, so I would start using soaps or some new product to wash my face and it would start to break out inexplicably. From there my fear of using an unknown product was born. But if I live here now, I have to try the products to see if they are good for me or if they do their job properly.

But interestingly if we were to stick to the original original recipe, no one would eat it. Why? Because like many popular dishes today, they come from the culinary inventions of poor people without resources who, with inventiveness and creativity, cooked with the products that were available to them. And so it was in this case as well. The paella at that time had rat, yes. In the area of ​​the Valencian orchards, there were rats, and with rice, from the fantastic rice fields in the area of ​​L'Albufera (a natural freshwater lake but with access to the Mediterranean Sea, with an ecosystem of animals and plants still magnificent) , the paella was made, in addition to some vegetables and the rest of the ingredients...

For a start we have these two plants that I have high hopes for: Ocumo (Taro) and Roselle or Jamaican sorrel. In previous posts I told you about how the leafcutter ants killed the previous planting of Roselle, and that I could not enjoy the harvest, this time, I put a tire around them just when I planted them to prevent them from climbing, I'm not sure what the science behind this is but it works! I have already been able to rescue a couple of plants using this same technique.

There was the gentle light of the daybreak as I loaded up the 4 barrels of grain. There were supposed to be 7 full but it seems they gave a few barrels to someone else which is all good. Now I may not have to make the trip to town Friday since they might have enough empty barrels for the weekend brews. I have no orders through the co-op for Friday so I hope to not have to go anywhere.

Guava is one fruit I love as much as the rest of my favorite fruits. I always await its season, and I get to buy them in the market whenever I see them. I used to consume too much of it that I started having stomach pains and was told to reduce its intake as the seed can lead to serious health challenges.

Finding this plant was fortuitous, like most of the ones I have shared with you. However, finding something unknown to me invites me to investigate and be able to identify what it is, and learn from it.

The first day I was really very shy, I brought some drawings I had made as an audition and the teacher liked them. I remember that the professor was very good at teaching, his method of teaching was to get us to draw objects that he put in front of us using geometric figures. This course was about realism in graphite, and I learned how to shade. He started by having us all draw only jars, vases and bottles.

Months ago, for my earth day post, I planted some paprika seeds with my baby. I loved enjoying my little one feeling the contact with the soil, her expressions of amazement and happiness were unique and that special moment I will treasure forever.

Today I come with something completely new, a different post from the others, but not for that reason it has less value. It is a love letter to my best friends, because today I was going through my photo album and I couldn't help but see my smile of happiness when I take pictures with my best friends. I am surrounded by wonderful people, yes, as I have named The Versace Combi above, but this is a little dedication to three in particular, the ones I consider my best or closest friends. Not to say I don't love the other friends, but these three deserve a post.

For this beersaturday I will cover a trip that my wife and I took. My brother in law was getting married in Castle in Washington State. My wife and I decided to take our RV and make a trip out of it. The first stop my wife and I made was in Dunsmuir California to an RV Resort that also has rooms for rent which are old cabooses. The name of the RV resort is Railroad Park Resort. The resort is located in a beautifully wooded area of northern California.

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.
