OCD's support is expanding!
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
Hello everyone! This is the 1616th 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-154">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:

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>I offer cakes with a completely edible decoration, therefore the decoration figures are made with sugar paper printing on fondant, which I use on a cake with either chocolate ganache frosting, which is the most practical and recommended, whipped cream or cream cheese frosting. Obviously, each one has a different cost and the customer can choose the one that best suits his budget.

In my beginnings as a pastry chef and due to ignorance, I once put fondant letters on a cake that was covered with whipped cream. A big mistake, because it was a disaster because both the whipped cream and the cream cheese frosting are very humid and the fondant becomes soft and chewy when in contact with humidity.

I've noticed that some bumblebees are returning. Last year, we didn't have enough bees due to heavy rain and cold days during spring and summer. This spring, the weather has been pretty mild so far. Hopefully, we won't experience any extreme weather.

There is still list of unfinished stories ready to be written. Today I will talk about another unfinished story. If you just woke up and still need to get breakfast, wait with reading. I’ve been in Portugal many times and heard a few stories about my temporary destination, I finally had the change to experience it. It’s part of Vanlife and we Vanlifers like to check out other vans. I did, and the driver made me sick.

<blockquote>Hello HIVE kids, 🦋 happy and blessed Wednesday! A little bit of a week, as some people say hehe. I woke up in the morning active, and thinking that the week went by very fast. This Sunday is already Mother's Day, and that date always makes me happy, however, I have always thought that I don't know why it falls just days before you get paid haha, it should be in the fortnight, when you have money hahaha right? But well, anyway, this time I came across the initiative of the beautiful community of LADIES, and they caught my attention.

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>Hello friends who love crafts. Recently I had the opportunity to acquire a material with which I had never worked, but as I am an adventurer in the world of crafts, from time to time I dare to try new things. So today I bring you a video tutorial of how I made a floral ornament using pipe cleaners or chenille wires as it is also called. I loved how to work with this material because you can give it any shape you want, I can imagine how many things I could do with it. In addition to the texture it has, I loved it, so plush, it makes the piece look more tender already elaborated. I hope you enjoy it, I hope you find it useful and if you have any suggestions or doubts, please let me know in the comments.

<blockquote>Eggplants are a rich food that I eat frequently, it is always present in my menu, it is so versatile that sometimes I roast them, I use it for stewing, sometimes I also fry them, but today I decided to make them canned!
In times of crisis eggplants were sometimes the only filling my arepa had so I feel a special gratitude for this food, and precisely while I was ordering groceries with my husband I told him ..look how big and beautiful these eggplants .. and I did not resist in making them immediately 😁🍆.
If you want to know how I prepare them, join me !

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>Greetings to everyone in this prestigious community! It's nice to be present once again. "Así fue", is the theme that I have brought in week 82 of the Hive Music Festival, it is a song originally from the incomparable singer-songwriter Alberto Aguilera Valadez, better known as Juan Gabriel, I must say that the interpretation of this song in Bellas Artes, Mexico in 2013, was one of the most beautiful and impactful things I have ever seen. It made my skin crawl, and made me think that we truly lost a super artist but one who left a wonderful musical legacy for all generations in Latin America.

The lyrics of this song are quite harsh, as the person is telling the other person that love is over forever, but no doubt that in the past he/she loved him/her with all his/her strength, but it's over and it's over. This can be very painful to accept if one of those people is still clinging, as in the case of these lyrics.

<blockquote>Just 1 patient tonight, instead of my usual 2. That means, i have less to do, and i can chill a little bit. I also have a student here with me, because i have been doing this job for about 15 years now. To those who havent seen me talk about the Sleep Study, basically a sleep study is when a patient comes in for a test. We look at a lot of different parameters, including respiratory, EKG (heart), EEG (brain waves), EMG (muscle activity), oxygen, and couple other things. They stay hooked up with a lot of wires (which are annoying of course), and for about 6 to 8 hours, until about 5am when i have to wake them up and clean everything up. Then i finish the study, mark everything, finish my notes and report. Eventually i am done with tasks, scanning, made a couple calls already, and then its time to finally go home.
