It's a new month and only two months to the end of 2020. A year that the world will remember - everyone for the same reason. I don't believe I'm alone in wanting to see the back of it. Equally, I probably not alone in my uncertainty for 2021. What is certain, though, is that I'll be hiving on. In one way or another.
Monthly ritual
Unlike last month, I have powered up and in advance of doing so, converted 5HBD to Hive. I am, however, keeping most of my HBD liquid. Because of 2020. Anyhow, I do want to grow my account because it is both an investment and allows me to do more on the blockchain and which is a win-win: for me and the people I connect with.
Proof of power up - 1 November 2020
Of badges and busy bees - an unashamed punt
Powering up, I'm told, will garner me one of those little badges - and I love bees. Taking photos of bees is a challenge. One of my favourites has been turned into a design on products like these rather twee coasters.
You can buy it - and other products that make great gifts - here
Oh, and a word to the wise: if you have a thing for black cats and flowers, you may well find something in my shop that rocks your socks... You can even cuddle with Princess Pearli on your couch...in a belated nod to Haloween...
...or in your bed...she's a strumpet. We know she goes with anyone!
Until next time, be well

Post Script
I am doing my best to post every day for November as part of @traciyork's twice yearly #HiveBloPoMo challenge. This is my third attempt. Why not join the fun? Traci's full post is here
And then there's more:
- If this post might seem familiar, it's because I'm doing two things:
- re-vamping old recipes. As I do this, I plan to add them in a file format that you can download and print. If you download recipes, buy me a coffee. Or better yet, a glass of wine....?
- and "re-capturing" nearly two years' worth of posts because of this.

Awesome on the power up Fiona! Starting the month on a positive note and let's crack on with the #hiveblopomo and hope we can get a bigger power up going for next month and some more bees 😁
Thanks, Nicky! Something to aim for...
Yeah goals keep me motivated so at least the blopomo can keep us on the straight and narrow

Have a great start to November @fionasfavourites I messed up and missed out this round with family commitments, great that you are finding ways to rearrange what is important.
Family commitments. The best possbible reason to have missed out! Hope you enjoyed your time together

Just got back from a short break with my brother, this alas was not so good assisting sister-in-law setting up a dongle connection after Telkom took the lines down... However still good to be out for a short spell. Trust you are all well slowly finding your feet again.
Urgh! A nightmare. Thanks Joan. Slow is most definitely the operative word. lol
