Let’s start today’s showcase by mentioning one new member of the Hive society. This amazing mom and wife went from being a full-time nurse to the content creator and we love the courage and inspiration she brings to the table. 

> *My name is Josie. I am half Korean (mom's side) and half Puerto Rican (dad's side). From my ethnicity, some of you probably already guessed correctly - YES I grew up in a military family. I was actually born in Germany when my parents were stationed there for a few years!*
>
> *That's where content creation started for me! With my husband's support, I was able to leave my 9-5 job to focus on recovery, reducing stress, and pursuing my passion in content creation. Fast forward to November of 2020, my husband and I found out that I was pregnant again!*

> *One of the most common excuses I hear from people for not eating healthier foods is often the price. And it's a freaking good excuse since fresh foods are often still more expensive than pasta, rice and bottled sauces - making many people more resistant to eating a healthier diet.*

> *I hope these tips will help you to get more for your money and create that vibrant, healthy life all of us deserve!*

Dive into the red colors of the world as Chrislybear shows us how magical a single detail in a photo can be. This amazing photographer always has something new and exciting to show even when he is just cleaning up photo libraries.

>  *Red is the color of Hive. Why not use red as the main color of photos then?*
>
> *By now I have almost 1.5 TB of photos, so I guess a little bit of clearing out won't hurt ;P That's when I got the idea for this post. :)*

>  *So I decided to make my version of savory tart and stuffed with shredded chicken*
>
>  *We stretch the dough and place it in a mold to later fill with the chicken that we have reserved, do not add the juices that were left of it because it will moisten the dough a lot and when we finish cooking it will it may break and not work out.*

Explore the wonders of St. Petersburg and the great historical monuments that Marytraveldiary captured. Come for the photos and stay for the story that this adventurer talks about.  

>  *When we first saw it, our eyes were naturally immediately drawn to the huge gold dome, which also bears the name "God's Inkwell". The largest main dome is built of almost pure gold and decorated with a full 12 statues of angels. Despite the museum style, church services are still held in the cathedral on major occasions*
>
> *At first it was intended as protection, then it was supposed to demonstrate strength and power, until it became a symbol of the uprising during the February Revolution: During that time, the fortress functioned as a prison and during that revolution, soldiers stormed the fortress and freed the prisoners. For me, the different functions of the fortress at different times in history were super exciting!*
