The most important challenge around #marketfriday, initiated by
I'm in a big dilemma
I promised not to post in this challenge anymore ... in this most successful challenge that I know. It's successful not only because of the theme: #marketfriday but as much because of the initiator and host: . Denise, the person you want to be friends with in Steemit. With amazing ability to help, communicate and sustain. I know what I'm saying, I was returned twice by Denise in my decision to leave this platform.
What is this dilemma?
I made many mistakes, one of them was linked to #marketfriday challenge. I made a proposal to both, the participants and Denise. A proposal to change this challenge, a proposal with far too many details ( You can see the post HERE if you are interested) There were four comments, two supporters (maybe polite ones) and two who criticized the initiative. They were very angry with me and accused me of things I did not think. Maybe they were right. Considering that they were right, I promised I would leave the challenge and not post again. I kept my promise so far. Instead, Denise thinks I have no reason to stop posting and asked me to come back. The dilemma is: to respect my promise (as is normal for any man) or to listen to what Denise said, the host of the challenge?
Choosing
As I have done many mistakes, so I made many wrong choices. I choose to post in Denise's challenge again. If you have a feeling about it, if I did well or wrong, I'd be glad to find out! It helps me a lot to understand and choose again.
Posting
A month ago I made a trip to Iasi, one of the most interesting cities in Romania. I know the city pretty well because I have visited it many times. I want to present many parts and aspects of life in Iasi. Today I will show one of the markets. For Denise and her friends.
The Underground Market
The market closest to the hotel where we usually live when visiting Iasi is built underground. A very good choice, especially when the weather is unfavourable. I went winter there and I was glad that the market was protected from snow and cold.
The square, seen from above, looks like that. Its uncovered part is under the snow.
When I got down, I disturbed some birds that were sheltering from cold and snow.
We have entered in the market, the first one is welcoming are flowers. We have to buy some for our friend who invited us to Iasi.
A last look at the world above and we will leave the market. It was just a reminder, we stay at the hotel, and we cannot cook anything.
The Usual Recipe
I usually end the post with a recipe. I used to cook with the products I bought on the market. This was the novelty of my posts in #fridaymarket. Because I was not able to cook in Iasi, I present you a very short recipe that I did at home.
Bean Paste
Boil half a pound of beans with a carrot, onion and salt. After the bean is boiled, soup is poured into a bowl.
Crush the bean with the mixer.
While using the mixer, add the soup from the boil, add olive oil and garlic paste until the consistency you want is reached.
This is all. The result is a very tasty bean paste. I hope you will try it too. Good appetite!
