I have accepted a mission: to explore strange new blogs, to seek out new posts and new minnows, to boldly go where no Steemian has gone before! *yes, I'm a geek...*

# <center>The Mission</center>
<br>I will be trawling through this very platform hunting out those hidden gems, the undiscovered countries of newly arrived promising authors, freshly spawned minnows if you like. I wish to put a spotlight on those I think are deserving of a much wider audience.

I have decided to write these posts Monday to Friday, so expect 5 per week. Sorry for not producing one yesterday, I've had a lot going on in the background.

I like to follow fellow artists on steemit and was overjoyed to run across @kristyglas

She is from Croatia and among her talents she has a great flare for excellent pixel art, as seen in the GIF above @kristyglas created for a contest here on Steemit.

He has been a real asset to the community and has created a t-shirt for the project members.

Very stylish I think you'll agree. See his post to get your hands on one.

@nidhisrecipes is next on my list and is a new arrival.

https://steemit.com/food/@nidhisrecipes/tutti-frutti-cookies

As you would expect the blog is dedicated to recipes and this one in particular caught my eye. Very colourful and tasty looking.

Oleg is from Sweden and is an enjoyable read.

This one caught my eye as I have a love for cats and the affection he shows for a poor orphaned kitten is apparent in his post.

@myours is an artist, an actress and a great singer from Italy. Her real name is Giada.

In her latest post she does a wonderful cover of Rihanna's 'Stay' while playing the piano. The video is below for you to enjoy.
