Silver Bloggers' Community Smorgasbord - 8th Edition 2025

1 day ago

Hello, Silver Bloggers!

Here we are again to showcase another bunch of posts from our Silver Bloggers - it's that time when we share some of your gems.

We appreciate your posts in the community, so as long as we have posts from our Silver Bloggers, we will try to highlight some of them.

But first, let me tell you how we selected the posts.

Selection criteria

All the posts are chosen from posts in the community, and from accounts that have subscribed to the Silver Bloggers' community. Also, the topic must fit in with our general themes as set out on our community page -

a keenness to learn more about blockchain and crypto
life experiences
musings and memories of lives lived
planning for (and doing) life beyond formal work

Posts that are a response to #BOM and #SilverPrompts or any contest in the community are not considered.

If you missed some of those awesome posts, we encourage you to go back and read them. If you would still like to support the authors, even though some are past their payout dates: don't waste your vote, leave a tip. (The web versions of @peakd and @ecency offer this facility.)

The "Smorgasbord" - 8th Edition 2025!

Everything's Moving Too Fast! - PART ONE.

by @stevenwood

The TV would stretch out a couple of feet from the wall and need a special sturdy TV stand to sit on. They were certainly built to last though. If you drove a tank in to the TV at high speed, your tank may not survive!

🌈 Holi - The Ultimate Celebration! 🎉

by @sanjeevm

The beauty of this festival is that there is no differentiation of who can apply color to whom - you just need to step forward to the ground and it's almost assured that you will go back to home unrecognized but filled with happiness.

Early Retirement Plan from Hive and Investments Should be Done Now and Will Secure My Self at 50’s

by @antonette

All that I have from Hive blog posting will be saved here in Hive Savings. I would like to target also to get a thousand of Hive Power because I made a power down before, which was a very wrong decision of mine.

Birthday

by @shanibeer Silver Moon

The other day it was my birthday, one of those big ones with a zero at the end. I had some lovely cards, a lot of chocolate, and my daughter's boyfriend cooked a beautiful supper followed by a birthday cake with candles and singing and then heaps of presents.

I was touched by the attention they had paid to all the rituals.

Organizing A New Freezer and Ruebens for Dinner

by @sunscape Silver Sunscape

When corn beef goes on sale every March for St. Patrick's Day, I purchase a few to enjoy throughout the year. After slow cooking the tip in the Ninja pot, it looked like this: It was so tender and oh my, it smelled amazing. I had homemade sauerkraut in the fridge and all the necessary ingredients to make Reuben sandwiches for dinner.

A Happy Birthday

by @charjaim

Greetings, friends of the Silver Blogger community. Today I want to tell you about my birthday celebration, seven days ago. I say "my" because celebrating is also a personal act, where I choose to give thanks, hug myself, pamper myself, and wish myself the best for the new journey.

As a reminder

The #bom and #silverprompts are meant to encourage and inspire. So remember that you can write about any of the topics that have already passed if you have writer's block.
We always look forward to reading your posts. And we manually select and recommend good content to be supported by OCD.
