OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 615th 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:

Being an adult means having to come up with ideas for dinner everyday and then actually having to make them reality - it’s hard to be imaginative everyday especially when you’re tired, but still want to please your family. That’s why I’m such a fan of single-pot sauces, you know, the easy dinner ideas that can be put together in less than 30 minutes, but don’t come up short on flavour or nutritional punch.

Hello my creative DIY people. It's about to end this week that God gave us, thanking that this one that is about to begin will be of much benefit and blessings. Today I bring you one of my creations that I made with love for my dear Father.

The pros of having a well paid awful job is being able to save up quite some money for a few years, and use the money to buy happiness after or invest in an own business and leave the shitty job. In my case, I might choose to invest in a small bed and breakfast and restaurant in Ghana or something else that can make me happy and make the years of working hard in an unpleasant job an opportunity for the future.

Traveling is the greatest enjoyment in life and there are many types of trips, those we do for pleasure, for work or because we need something.

The first time I had to travel alone was to the United States. My serious brother operated in Miami and my mom needs a company to move from the hospital to the hotel and vice versa.

As I have already mentioned in previous posts, the countryside is one of my favorite places in the world, I really like being there, being in contact with nature, enjoying the animals and all the spaces of this place, which, although it is very remote from the city it is worth the trip to be able to spend a pleasant day outdoors. This time I was able to see all the animals, something I hadn't done for a long time since they take them away from there to eat, but this time it was different and I made the most of it, I'll show you a little of it.

I've always loved singing and dancing since I was little. I wasn't really the songbird but my siblings made singing fun and enjoyable, you can say I come from a family where everyone loves music. My dad particularly loves music more than anything, he has told us the history of his love for music and how he started writing and composing songs and also wanted to venture into the music industry, likewise my mom who also loves singing with her sweet alto part. My sister is a soprano/treble singer and so are my immediate siblings too. Music completes the family to say the least.

I've been living independently for more than four years here in Hong Kong, and I could say that it isn't easy. Budgeting my monthly salary is the hardest. So most of the time, the needs are always placed on top of priority, next to my family's monthly financial support, before buying my wants.

The past few days I have been very hectic with various tasks and I had to travel up to the farmhouse to do some gardening. The orange cats were much bigger within two weeks; my gardener has been giving them more food than usual. The rainy season has settled down for three months of grey and wet days. I had managed to trim several plants as they grew too bigger and too fast in rainy season. I have to try to keep the garden from growing too dark and other plants need sunlight to flourish too. I had encountered two medium size snakes in the garden recently so it’s important to keep the garden from becoming a jungle.

It's just about the end of June now, so I wanted to give you a little "show and tell" of my gardens at home. The plants are growing pretty well right now, although a few things are a bit behind because of late planting. I think everything will work out ok for harvest time.

Hello everyone, I hope you have had a wonderful week, today to finish with sweet recipes I will show you how to make a delicious cold strawberry cake, using the recipes I have shared with you these days. We will use the 3 ingredient sponge cake which we will decorate with the delicious and shiny Italian meringue and the lemon pastry cream filling.

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.
