After the parents had explored all of the projects were were introduced to one of our biggest animation studio on the African continent - Triggerfish Studios. They gave us a brief overview of what they do, theur achievements etc. and then parents and kids got stuck int a pretty cool international initiative called "Hour of Code". Each family group was given a chrome book and small animation challenge. Well, damn did it make me feel stupid haha - but mom caught up eventually! I thought you might appreciate this initiative @zord189 ;) It really was pretty awesome!

That session ended pretty late and I honestly didn't feel like going home to play chef in the kitchen, so we went out for a quick bite to eat and Jude had a little fun making his own dinner.

As for my week ON the blockchain, I would have to say that my biggest highlight was being selected by @pennsif as the South African Representative for the Steem blockchain! I am absolutely over the moon with this new venture and so very excited to start gathering all of us so that we can start organising meetups and promo campaigns for our awesome blockchain! I have kicked it off by starting our Steem South Africa profile, discord server and Twitter account so that we can get the ball rolling! You can read more about that in this post here:

Proudly introducing STEEM SOUTH AFRICA!

_{I think it is safe to say that an active Steem South Africa presence within this blockchain network is long overdue, so I am honoured and thrilled to have been selected as the representative for SA in this venture. I had a fantastic start to the day - reading @pennsif's ANNOUNCEMENT POST and then stepping into my PHC SERVER and being greeted with so many messages of confidence and encouragement. Before I go any further, I would also like to congratulate another one of our very own PHC members @zekepickleman for being selected as the representative of Canada as well as @paulag (Ireland) and @chrisrice (Philippines)!}

As for my other content creation, I had a REALLY super time doing days 16 to 22 of my "prompted mandala" for inktober and also shared some introspective thought posts...

Cayenne Chilli New York Sirloin Bowl with Sweet Bell Peppers & Roasted Asparagus

_{I always enjoy steak night because firstly, I know the man will be happy and secondly, steaks are super easy and quick, but sometimes I get tired of serving things in the traditional manner - so I decided to spice things up a little the other day... literally! haha...}

❤❤❤

Think about it...

_{I wonder how much “thought” people give to the power of THEIR thoughts and if they are even aware of the fact that what they are repeatedly thinking about is actually shaping their very existence.… honestly, I don’t think many are… I say that because if people were REALLY cognizant of this, then surely they would not consciously SELECT to fill their minds with so much negative nonsense or thought processes that will clearly only perpetuate their situation? It simply makes no sense to me at all!}

The Prompted Mandala - #inktober (Days 16 - 22)

_{The more this creative project develops, the more I am falling in love with it (be it bold to say that myself haha) Having to refer back each week to the very start of it, I re-realise just how much time and energy has gone into it, but as the swirls of symbolism grow, it puts a smile on my face because more than anything, I am thoroughly enjoying the process!}

I don't need your attitude... I have my own!

_{I suppose the fact that I grew up in a house with four men is probably the reason for my general "attitude problem" (hahaha ok, I know it isn't a problem...lol) but many of the male counterparts that I cross paths with seem to have a really hard time accepting a female with a brain, and even worse... a mouth gawd, the horror! It is interesting actually... well no, not interesting, but borderline amusing - because most men will openly admit that this quality is one which they find enormously attractive in a woman, yet most of them only seem to be comfortable with it, "from a distance" if you will... and the one primary thing that attracted them to you in the first place, often eventually becomes the one attribute of yours which they cannot handle further down the line.}

As for some other awesome Steemians and their content, here is a handful of some of the really great posts which I stumbled across whilst curating from my @theluvbug account. Enjoy!

Well folks, that is a wrap from me for the week! The weather is super Wintery here today... definitely red wine and pasta weather which is precisely what will be unfolding here shortly! Tomorrow is one of my nephews 12th birthday party so unlikely that I will be around... but will see you all on sunday! Hope you all have a SUPER weekend!

MWAH!!!

Until next time...
Much Love from Cape Town, South Africa xxx
