OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 389th 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:

Thirteen years ago, thanks to a common interest, we connected, and ever since, even though we do not talk every day, when we do, feels like time has not passed, but it has, years have gone, we've changed a lot, we now have families and many other responsibilities, we often talk about our parenting experiences, and, she introduced me (many times) to HIVE, and has now shown me the amazing ability she has developed over the years to teach others with patience and continuing being herself which is a very respectable treat!

Ana Sofia looks at the clock, it's 10 to 12:00 p.m. and the morning is gone. She must prepare lunch, also make some typical candy to keep for her friend Lían who with his wife has agreed to go home after 7 years abroad, to remember those times when as a bachelor he went with her and her husband to "hunt talent" to the boulevard, where some nights the young city people, or urban artists, as they used to call them, dueled in break dance between applause and raucous music. He and her husband photographed those flashes of movement and color, while she, recorder in hand, tried to capture those moments in words, sudden poetry born in the heat of the dance. Ah, what a time those were... But it's 12:15 and there's no time for sudden nostalgia and memories, that's what the night is for, to remember and laugh together.

For a change I prepared this appetizer and he liked it very much, he ate it all and asked me to prepare potatoes like this more often because they were very tasty. The potato (Solanum tuberosum) is a very versatile vegetable in the kitchen, not in vain important food chains promote and offer them with various dressings, each with its own particular style... Children usually like to eat them fried with tomato sauce.

I made an analytical copy to simulate with values (grayscale) the matte texture of a group of rocks. The last lesson was matte rocks, and today, it rocks with wet texture (specular).

I had been wanting to renew some of my baking utensils for a while, and I took advantage of the fact that some friends recently opened a store with these products, and I went to visit them to see what they had.

The store is small, but I was surprised that it was very well stocked as it is a place that has baking utensils, ingredients, and packaging that are innovative and of very good quality. This store has everything for the baker, and the prices are fair for the quality of their merchandise.

If you look at the outer view of the church, it is obvious that this church was built long time ago because of the structure and the materials used. But if you will get inside, things was far different from outside. They already have modernized it. When you look at the ceiling, there are biblical images painted on it.

Allow me to share photos here in this article of the various stages of pumpkin vine growth in my backyard garden over the course of the 2021 growing season.

I am really fascinated by the moon and the stars at night. Of course, I love starry skies, but sometimes, I just want to see the moon solely brightening the night sky. And so, I painted this kind of scenery.

My friend says that as everything is vibration, dirty places, where there is disorder, humidity and little light are the favorite places of low vibration spirits and attract by resonance similar people.

I don't know much about spirits, but in houses where dirt and clutter accumulate, nasty insects and animals take over the space.
So this year I decided to start doing things differently, I said to myself "I will start by practicing order, cleanliness and organization".

Shark stone beach is natural tourism presenting natural beauty. Why is it called shark rock beach? Because this beach has a rock jutting into the middle of the sea, its shape resembles a shark. The people here call it shark rock beach.

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.
