As what @ybanezkim26 always tells me, "Gil, you really enjoy what you do!" 

It's true, I love and enjoy organizing small events since I moved to Cebu. I remember I wrote a blog about three years ago [Over A Decade & Counting (Celebrating Friendship)](https://peakd.com/travel/@purepinay/over-a-decade-and-counting-celebrating-friendship), where I invited my high-school best friends to Cebu and offered them to stay at my place and toured them around Cebu for a whole day! And this is where I started hosting group gatherings. 

And just this month I orgazinized two events for my #hiveawarnessprogram; 
- [OCD's Onboarding Seminar](https://peakd.com/hiveseminar/@purepinay/starting-it-right-cebu-s-1st-on-boarding-seminar-for-hive) | 3rd of July 2021. 
Where the goal of the event was...
> The goal of the seminar had been fairly simple. It was (1) to introduce to talented people in Cebu how the Hive platform is the perfect space for them to explore their creative minds, (2) to show them the creative and financial benefits and demands of using the platform, (3) and finally to guide them step by step in developing their own personal pages.[→](https://peakd.com/hiveseminar/@purepinay/starting-it-right-cebu-s-1st-on-boarding-seminar-for-hive)

 - [Purepinay's Zumba Party](https://peakd.com/hive-189306/@purepinay/a-sneak-peek-purepinays-zumba-party-or-celebrating-4-years-on-the-blockchainshort-preview-description-short-preview-descript) (Celebrating 4 years on the Blockchain!) | 20th of July 2021.
A mini celebration  for a new milestone. Sharing the fun with my close friends, some Cebu Hivers from our group, and our new onboarded members.

Now, that we have more active members of our Hive Cebu Group; @itsmiessyonpeakd, @sassycebuana, @jongcl, @kcownders, @eeventuree, @aldrinadventurer, @blankgamer8, @intoy.bugoy, @hiraya, @explorewithsasha, @geneveive, @onifled, @gerel, @ybanezkim26, @indayclara, @thegaillery, @chillwithshanna,     besides communicating with them online, I also like to motivate by gathering the group to keep the spirit of the team alive!

Another goal of these events and the upcoming Hive events is to simply bring #hiveawareness to our local community.

Although this is just one way of how I fund my Hive events. Am lucky that I have very supportive friends and fans. Just like when I had my [Zumba Party](https://peakd.com/hive-189306/@purepinay/a-sneak-peek-purepinays-zumba-party-or-celebrating-4-years-on-the-blockchainshort-preview-description-short-preview-descript), one of my followers sent me a grab credit where I used to purchase two roasted chickens through grab food delivery. And I still have a grab balance that I can use within this month! I am grateful for all these blessings. =)


Anyways, back to the main topic. So, two days ago, I was able to sell six orders of my Protein-Packed Pasta.

I thought I would have to book a delivery man for the orders that day, but luckily all of my customers are from my neighborhood. One of them is @hiraya, (thank you so much for the support!<3). Before dusk, I was able to sell six.


![Just Sold Circle Light Blue Postcard.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/purepinay/23w387VNN4hXk9ajcYfZWyC38pfLK6C228VQebMmuQg8Hjy61GPpbhPvSpvUZvrU9bcbe.jpg)

I know I don't really have to sell some of the dishes because there's not a lot of profit selling it at a very low price considering the price of the ingredients (lol), but I just enjoy it and I also like to try something new. Besides I have to eat anyway so might as well cook a bigger batch and one thing I like about this pasta is that it was so easy to make and the simmering process wasn't a fuss. I was still able to get other things done while cooking the sauce.

Fyi, I edited the photo on [Canva](https://www.canva.com/join/xsh-hvf-fmj) so it looked more appealing to my customers. How does it look?

Am not sure what will be the next menu, I would like to try again my best cookie recipe but I have to calculate the expenses on the ingredient. Or I could just use whatever available ingredients I have in my pantry and something that would be a little profitable. Do you have any suggestions?

I hope you get inspiration from this post and be creative on how you can motivate your group. It doesn't have to be costly, but once in a while, social gatherings are one of the funs ways to interact with each other.
