OCD's support is expanding!
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
Hello everyone! This is the 1461st compilation post of OCD's latest curation efforts. It has been known that OCD has been supporting leading niche communities under its <b><a href="https://peakd.com/hive-174578/@ocdb/ocd-communities-incubation-program-update-149">Community Incubation Program</a></b>. However, there are still a lot of other niche communities not supported by OCD. This curation initiative will help in supporting those communities.
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
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. 
</div>

<h4>How this Works</h4>

<div class="text-justify">
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.
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
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.
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
Speaking of boost, here are the curated posts for this batch:

<blockquote>Have a good day my dear friends🤗. Are you all well? I wish you all a very happy new year 2024. A little less rest these days. It is due to my son's work in preschools. But all work should be balanced. With that effort, my aim is to bring a new way of preparing food to my friends.

<blockquote>Why kakanin? One of the businesses my mother had before was making 'kakanin' and other local delicacies. Since my siblings and I were just kids, we were already exposed to the process of making 'kakanin' as we assisted our mom in the kitchen, especially when there were bulk orders. It was amusing because when our mother cooked our regular meals, she didn't let us help her. However, when she made 'kakanin,' she would really call us to assist her. The reason why we also know how to cook 'kakanin' and why we love eating 'kakanin' and other local delicacies.

And up until now, this is the bond that I am always excited to do and we promise to practice at least once a month.

<blockquote>I was convinced that relationships needed strength and fortitude more than anything. That those that broke were because of a lack of will, determination, fortitude. Despite having endured many things, having made an effort and having suppressed many feelings, it ended anyway. It was an existential moment. While I was trying to resolve the tangle that I had in my head, I came across Osho's phrase that I placed at the beginning of this post.

<blockquote>Hello friends. In 48 hours we will be saying goodbye to the year 2023. It has been a long year, of many changes in my life and also of goals achieved. Professionally, it allowed me to take solid steps as a teacher; in the family sphere, a better home, consolidate bonds of understanding and well-being; and personally, to be accompanied by good friends and with my entry to the Hive BlockChain, to find many more.

It has been a good year for me and an assessment of the results achieved, allows me to conclude that they are thanks to the good friends I have had during all this time, those who have accompanied me and built bridges with their good deeds. For these reasons, in this publication I would like to make some reflections in this regard, in addition, to share with you a selection of photos taken with friends and colleagues of the university where I work.

<blockquote>Many will know me as the grinch of Christmas food, but they are not right, I mean, I see myself as a fighter for good causes and I offer alternatives to be repeating that Christmas dish that aha! I understand that many people love it but I get tired of it after the second day and I want to eat something else or something Christmasy but prepared in a different way.

The rice that I bring today is like my usual recipes: good, easy and with ingredients that we have at home or that we can afford to buy. The rice has its own ingredients that are used in my country at Christmas to prepare the typical dish that is the hallaca or marinated pork leg with them, so I recommend that you set aside a little of them to prepare our rich and delicious dish.

<blockquote>I know, you wouldn't usually drive to the supermarket at that time, but the market is something else. Vendors start coming in in the middle of the night, maybe 3:00 or 4:00 am and start setting up their stalls. By 6:00 everybody is ready to go. Fresh fruit, meat and the catch of the day from the sea.
