This is a quick post, today, and confirming my August delegations to redfish that participated in the most recent edition of #hivepud.

If you don't know what I do or why I do this, it's a combination of paying it forward and walking the talk and I've been doing it for exactly a year, this month.

August Power Up Day

If you don't know what happens on Hive Power Up Day and how accounts stand to gain, read @traciyork's Power Up Day post and join next month?

A reminder about my delegations - if you didn't follow the link...

Each month, I set aside 300 HP that I delegate an equal share among three accounts that meet the basic Power Up Day Criteria.

In my case, though, and given my focus on redfish, the accounts must also be -

be less than 6 months old

have **at least two qualifying posts since the previous power up day.
Posts that qualify must have 200 words or more and exclude posts for Power Up Day, and Actifit. As a reminder, the reason I added the second criterion is because - Hive is a social blockchain: it's for socialising, ruminating and just generally hanging out.

a reputation of less than 61

not more than 500 HP in their accounts before** they power up - both on the first of the month

Qualifying accounts for August

Unlike the last two months when we were spoilt for choice, there were slim pickings this month. Only two accounts met all the criteria. Just. So @yems and @trippymane have already received their delegations. In consultation with @traciyork, we decided that the third delegation would to last month's big winner who is also a Silver Blogger @bartolomee's and which is consistent with my ongoing promise to support noob members of this community.

Proof of delegation

Delegations were made on 5 August and should already be in your wallets.

This screencap is out of date as I'm drafting this ahead of its being posted some time on Saturday...life....

But that's not all

Remember that in addition to the delegations, these accounts are added to my fanbase and receive a daily 100% upvote; I also ask @ginabot to notify me each time they post. If I have an opportunity, I pop over and have a gander and occasionally weigh in on whatever the post may be about.

A last word - or two

Thanks as always to @traciyork, @victoriabsb and @hivebuzz for all the hard work they do each month - and around the blockchain, generally.

Thanks too, to @doze for the super Hive graphics that he develops and shares for us all to use. Do check out his posts and perhaps drop by and show some Hive love.

Until next time, be well Fiona The Sandbag House McGregor, South Africa

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.
