Greetings ma'am @dasudi and all community members. I'm so delighted to be here writing down my entry on this lovely topic. "Special Engagement Challenge Season 9". Indeed the season 9 engagement challenge was a success and I'm so glad I was part of it despite my busy schedules last month I was able to take part in numerous contests.

In the last season of the challenges I was able to participate in four(4) contests organized by this noble community and I must say that all the topics were so unique and I enjoy it to some extent.

Week 1: Art in food. This was the first contest the community organized during the season of the engagement challenge contest where we were to make art out of food, it was an open check to select food but the most important part of the contest was to create art with the food one selected.

Week 2: What do you prefer? This is another unique topic in which I participated. And the contest was very simple, a menu was given to us and we were asked to select what we prefer and give brief reasons for our selection.

Week 3: Mothers' delicacies. In week three, we were asked to write about our mother's delicacy and a brief description of the meal our mum do prepare for us when we were young. I'm so happy that was able to take part in the contest and share my mum's delicious meal with the world.

Week 4: My favorite ingredients. This contest was so amazing and I was able to learn from others' recipes and ingredients across the world.

Well, I must say that all the topics were so special and interesting but the one that I liked the most was the week 1 contest, Art in Food. This contest makes me learn something new, seriously I love cooking but it has never crossed my mind to make art out of it. With the contest, I was able to explore and make sure that I come up with good art food even though it was my first time but I enjoy doing it.

Coming out with the beautiful flowers was not easy for me but I'm so glad I was able to learn from it.

Sure I was able to interact with other users even though it was not that much due to my tied schedule but I took my time to read from others just to learn from their content. And the two pieces of content I read were an entry by;

Ma'am @mariami :where she talked about her favorite ingredient which was garlic, seriously I'm not a fan of garlic but reading through her entry on how to make special meals with these ingredients I decided to give it a try and it came out so sweet especially the aroma of the pepper soups I made with it was just perfect.

Ma'am @drhira :I loved her creativity in the art food contest, wow. She did extremely well by making a beautiful butterfly with cucumbers, it was so amazing and she shared the steps in a very simple way for others to understand. I can say that I learned from her art food.

As a lover of food😄 of course I will love to see the community in the future season of the engagement challenge contest. Seriously I usually learn a lot during the engagement challenge contest. New recipes and how it is prepared from different countries it amazing. The community is indeed trying with their choice of topic.

So if the opportunity will be given I love to see the steemit-iron chef in the future season of the engagement challenge contest. And the contest I will love to see is more art food contests, traditional meals,s and others.

In conclusion, season 9 was so amazing even though I was not able to take part in all the contests but I usually take my time to read through others' publications just to learn from them and also support them with my little vote.
