OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 1585th 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:

Maybe you find yourself in the same situation as me, or not? In my family, for every eight or nine out of ten birthdays, I'm in charge of making the cake... And they love chocolate. As for the birthday boy turning 53, he loves a big piece of sponge cake.

Well I don't know what happened to the price of Hive suddenly, started the day at .40 now below .30, hopefully it's just a quick tumble while the momentum regroups to make a comeback in a few days. I wasn't planning on writing anything, I was reading my big book but it's like 500 pages and was getting heavy to hold, my arms need a break.

Sunlight is the lifeblood, especially for all creatures on Earth. In farming, sunlight is crucial. Apart from providing warmth, it's the energy source for plants to sustain their lives.

A few days ago, I moved my two-week-old Butternut squash seedlings to a spot with direct sunlight. Not all were two weeks old, as I had to replace some damaged ones, but the initially planted ones grew larger than the rest.

I hope everyone had a great week and had a restful weekend. On this occasion I share with you the recipe for a delicious meat stewed with potatoes. I will be totally honest with you, I don't usually prepare meat or chicken in sauce because they are not my favorite dishes. Generally, I like these ingredients as a simple sauce or with garlic, onion and salt, but I know that many of you like these recipes, as does my family, and I am not going to lie, it makes much more to eat for several days

A few hours ago, I had an immense desire to eat a sweet, maybe go to a bakery and buy something, however, lately I've been trying to eat in a more natural way, so I decided to take a deep sigh and think about it.

I looked up some recipes on Youtube and although the one I decided to prepare is nothing like what I initially imagined, it has really calmed my cravings for sweets and the best part is that it contains no artificial sweeteners and is still very sweet and delicious. Also, very satiating, just imagine, it contains oatmeal, banana and shredded coconut.

Greetings, dear hives and friends of #dailyblog. Today, I want to share with you how my workday went today, which surprisingly was quick and concise. Today my brief tour will be in the municipality of Maneiro, Nueva Esparta State. To fulfill the only task I had pending, for today, which was only the delivery of an invoice in the residential complex Mar y Sol, located in this picturesque municipality, which led me to undertake my trip to the city early in the morning.

Different TV shows, different storylines and different feeling for viewers, it's a hard one for me to decide favourites when it comes to movies but I can say I have a favourite if it's by the country they are produced from and that is k-drama series for me. Although, I won't be reviewing a k-drama series today but it's going to be one of the few series I've seen outside Korean series that I enjoyed every bit of it.

On my way to work, I found some time to take some photos. Warmer days are here again and the streets are slowly coming to life. From the crowd on the boulevard and the still unavoidable shopping mall, it took me ten minutes to get to the center and the pedestrian zone. Considering the lack of time, the heat and the position of the sun, it was not time to take photos, but despite that, the desire was stronger than anything else.

Yesterday was a busy day as it was the last weekday. I started my day with a scheduled appointment at the health center to get the Depo birth control.

As it was within walking distance of the public market where I work, my son and I took a stroll there together. The morning sun was still gentle, as it was only 7:30 am.

I chose three activities to illustrate my ideas about what me-time means to me and how I get a little of it: my longing for the sea in solitude, my need to feel nature and its creatures, and the importance of my cats to my emotional well-being. I also had some fun picking the photos to show you 😄 That said, I must be honest and admit that sometimes the hustle and bustle gets the better of me and I seek refuge in the first moment of the day, when I have my morning coffee; this is usually enough to repair the damage of a crazy day.

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.
