Saturday Savers Club with @sally-saver | Year 3 | Week 46 - Saturday 18 November 2023 | Win EDS for Comments

happy saturday.png

Hello Everyone,

Mama-mia! Have you seen the Savings Chart? Success emojis everywhere πŸ’ͺ πŸ’ƒ 😁! Well done Savers! Final push to the end of the year now! 😍

It's a right chilly day here today in the British Isles. I made a lamb stew yesterday for my tea, perfect comfort food. The great thing about stew is that you can extend it with whatever you have to hand or can afford. Here's my recipe:

Comforting lamb stew

500g stewing lamb (I like middle or scrag end of neck)
150g onions, diced or half-moon wedges
150g carrots, chopped
150g turnips, chopped
50g pot barley
1 x 400g can butter beans
bayleaf
salt and pepper to taste

Prepare the meat and vegetables to the size and shape you want, add to a stewpot, add the bayleaf and water to cover, bring to the boil and skim any scum, turn down the heat until the liquid is at a gentle simmer, cover and go and write a post for an hour. Either: add the can of beans to the stew for another twenty minutes or so Or: gently warm the beans and their liquid in a pan, strain (retain the liquid), mash the beans with olive oil to your taste, add some of the can liquid if you want a looser mash. Get your bowl and spoon and serve. 😁

If you're being very healthy, you can add some spears of seasonal purple sprouting broccoli on the side, or maybe a handful of peas from the freezer. If you want some extra warmth, add a dumpling, with or without herbs, for the last ten minutes of cooking time.

What's your favourite comfort recipe? Add in the comments for an HSBI sponsored by @shanibeer.

So @eds-vote is sitting there with 145,000 HP delegated 😍 At that rate, we will see a flip in the EDS APY within six months. That would be nice timing for the bull market πŸ€‘. Thank you to everyone who has delegated - it's a win-win-win! 😍

You can help by delegating or increasing your delegation each month after HPUD - every little helps and you'll be minting EDS tokens - and, especially, by voting for eddie-earner posts. You do that, don't you? πŸ˜‰

EDS and EDSM Queries

The quickest way to get any queries about payments resolved is to post a message in the #eddie-earner channel of the SPinvest discord: https://discord.gg/RQZubGeeTH and tag @silverstackeruk. Most problems that happen are technical bugs and are quickly resolved once we know about them. Housekeeping for @eddie-earner, EDS, EDSM and EDSMM is usually done on Monday UTC.

Ground Rules:

  • The SPI family motto is Get Rich Slowly. This covers EDS, EDSM and EDSMM, the home tokens for the Saturday Savers Club, as well as SPI, LBI and CL. The bottom line is that we are looking for well-researched options which bring a steady income. Good options will have an identifiable and easily accessible team (with emphasis on more than one person involved), a clear plan and use case for the token, and transparency and accountability through regular reporting.
  • Individual members are free (of course they are) to publish guides to tokens under their own account - and any number of members can do that.

Airdrops - RAGNAROK and GLX

Check the RAGNAROK Air Drop in this post.

Information about the year-long GLX airdrop for SPS stakeholders. Here's more information about checking your GLX airdrop and an interesting post and comments about DLUX.

4. Savings Goals for 2023

Remember for success - Start Small, Start Today

It can be any day, and it can be any day when you've had a break and want to start again.

  • the best way to build wealth is to save small amounts regularly.

Hi, that certainly looks like a nice recipe. I'm not a great cook at all (I could burn water) - but I love it when my wife cooks a sunday roast. More often than not we have chicken, with yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes, carrots, parsnips and brocoli - especially nice in winter !
I had another very good week with a gain of 128 HP. I also bought a little more DRIP and finally saved the 30 HBD needed for the DAB Club Token. Full post here:
https://hive.blog/hive-167922/@hoosie/saturday-savers-club-progress-week-46-bought-my-dab-club-token-and-little-more-drip
I can confirm that I have voted in this weeks #topauthors poll.

All the best to everyone for the coming week - cheers @hoosie

That lamb stew sounds really yummy and perfect for cold weather like today. My favorite and easy comfort recipe is just a pack of instant noodles cooked with soup and some eggsπŸ˜…

It's nice to see that the delegation to eds-vote is growing, yay! And congrats to everyone who has ticked off their goals earlier than expected and still working for more. Let's keep going!

Voted on the polls and will see if I can make a post about the week's progress. 😊

And her is my recipe

Vegan Bolognese Sauce

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 carrots, peeled and finely diced
  • 2 celery stalks, finely diced
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup brown or green lentils, rinsed and drained
  • 8 oz (about 227 grams) mushrooms, finely chopped (cremini or button mushrooms work well)
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)
  • 1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
  • 2 cups vegetable broth or water
  • 1/2 cup red wine (optional, use a vegan-friendly brand)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari (ensure gluten-free if needed)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnishing (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Vegetables:

    • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
    • Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. SautΓ© the vegetables for about 5 minutes, or until they start to soften.
    • Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
  2. Cook the Lentils and Mushrooms:

    • Add the rinsed lentils and chopped mushrooms to the pot. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have released their moisture and started to brown.
  3. Add Flavor Concentrates:

    • Stir in the tomato paste, dried oregano, dried basil, dried thyme, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. Deglaze and Simmer:

    • If using red wine, pour it in now and let it cook for a couple of minutes to reduce slightly, scraping any bits off the bottom of the pot.
    • Add the crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, and soy sauce or tamari. Stir to combine all the ingredients.
  5. Season and Cook:

    • Bring the sauce to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover with a lid slightly ajar and let it simmer for about 25-30 minutes, or until the lentils are tender. Check occasionally to stir and prevent sticking, adding more broth or water if the sauce becomes too thick.
  6. Adjust Seasonings:

    • Taste the sauce and season with salt and pepper as needed. If you prefer a smoother sauce, you can use an immersion blender to pulse the sauce a few times, but this is optional.
  7. Serve:

    • Serve the vegan bolognese sauce hot over your choice of pasta, garnished with fresh basil leaves if desired.
  8. Store or Freeze:

    • Any leftover sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw and reheat on the stove or in the microwave when ready to use.

Enjoy!

Happy Saturday to all my #SaturdaySaver friends !

Here's my update for the week.... https://inleo.io/@alonicus/saturday-savers-2023-progress-report-week-46

Also I voted for the Author of the Week. If you haven't voted yet, go and do it ! You might even win an EDSMM 😁

That lamb stew sounds amazing ! Why is it that I end up reading about it just as lunchtime comes along and I'm feeling hungry ?

I reckon my favourite comfort meal is chicken nadan, but I've got no idea of the details of the recipe, my wife cooks it and I just get to eat it. It's a south Indian dish, and includes chunky crunchy slices of fresh coconut, a vegetable-stock based sauce with lots of onions and about 25 different herbs and spices. Just the right balance of sweet, rich, and crunchy. Yummy !

For my HP and HBD new goals, I am doing great with it..I added 75hp in the last one week through my post reward, and added 5 HBD to my savings... interestingly, I am getting a bit closer for my new goalπŸŽ‰πŸ₯°

Congrats to everyone that writes and votes and wins tokens, I have voted this week.

A stew now sounds cool, as it is dreich up here.
Our comfort food is slow cooker cooked pinto beans with pork, coriander, garlic garlic garlic and more coriander chillies white pepper black pepper.
Then can be beans on their own with cheese tomatoes and onion, or in tacos, burritos,so many things to do with them...

Todays post written today!

Gave myself 9.5/10 partly as I gained over 100HP and 200 LP but also as I sent 50 LEO to @zyzymena so she could power up for LPUD and she won a delegation prize!

Have a great week people..

I was nominated for the poll this week! So a massive thanks to hoosie for that.

The lamb stew sounds pretty delectable. The only things I can find around here are onions and carrots. Never seen the rest before...heh

The last month was a really good one for me. My HP grew by 480, my HBS savings exploded, and I have even surpassed the recently-set 125 HBD. My secondary goals for NEOXAG and LEO are doing very well too. Here's my report for the month:

Warm greetings savers!

While I have definitely noticed Lower payouts on posts recently, and therefore slightly slower growth, this was overall another great week with 2/3 of my weekly goals surpassed, and I got really close on the third! I also made the comittment to reaching dolphin level by December 1st #HPUD, and I'm soooo close, just two steps remaining.

Given that the threshold for dolphin level is presently approximately 5,715 HP, I'd like to update my HP goal to that. Hopefully I'll far exceed it!

What's your favourite comfort recipe? Add in the comments for an HSBI sponsored by @shanibeer.

The closest thing I presently have to a comfort recipe is perhaps my version of a cheeseburger, made with local organic and free-range meat, seasoned with local sea salt, garlic powder, onion powder, dill weed, nutritional yeast, cayenne powder, smoked paprika powder, black pepper, curry powder, with some olive oil and an egg added and mixed all, cooked on a cast iron pain, on organic toasted sourdough bread, with spicy brown mustard, sometimes my hot sauce if I made any, raw onions, raw tomatoes, and garlic-alfalfa sprouts.

Sadly I could not vote in the #SaturdaySavers Club #TopAuthors poll because the poll wouldn't come up, either via the Hive Keychain Android app of via the website on my laptop. This has happen to me twice already. Doh!

On to another excellent week of building, growing, and saving on this incredible Blockchain! Onward and upward, together! 😁 πŸ™ πŸ’š ✨ πŸ€™
