Dehydration Preservation- Five Cherry Tomato Varieties Plus Basil & Tomato Infused Olive Oil

The cherry tomato varieties have been growing beyond their trellis. I've been gathering one of these green bowls full of cherry tomatoes each week. You can see a Roma tomato on the top - from the other garden. Sauce making can be tedious with cherry tomatoes, these tomatoes will be preserved for later use by drying them

See how @jackdub turns garden tomatoes into a delicious infused oil you can enjoy all year long.
Don't pay too much for this in a specialty store when you can make you own!

Satellite Data Study Shows Earth Has More Trees Than It Did 30 Years Ago

There is no doubt that the world is facing serious environmental problems, from trash and chemicals in the ocean to toxic fumes in the air.
However, a new study led by Xiao-Peng Song and Matthew Hansen of the University of Maryland gives us some good environmental news for a change, there are more trees on the planet than they were 30 years ago. The researchers used data taken by satellites from 1982 to 2016 and found that despite ongoing deforestation and forest fires, the world’s tree cover actually increased by 2.24 million square kilometers, which is an area the size of Texas and Alaska combined

Who would have thought, especially after all the years of environmentalists telling us we were using up all the trees; which we need for survival, that there are actually more now... then three decades ago. Read @johnvibe's post to learn more about this.

Ulog 37: My Definition Of A Perfect Relationship

You and your significant other are "lovey-doveys" that you always agree with each other and have never had a disagreement about anything. You don't stir each other up
You both never get angry at or annoy each other. Your priorities are the same and your responsibilities are shared equally. And you REALLY hate spending time apart because you're completely in love with each other and just absolutely absorbed in each other's company

This may sound perfect... well, too perfect for a relationship. See what @evlachsblog has to say about a “perfect relationship” in this post. Where do you and your significant other fall?

Communication Of Education 1: How To Avoid Flag From Orca

As a social media service, the Steemit platform has provided space for users to interact with each other. We can build communication among users through various services.

Important News:

Introducing Referral Bonuses!

Dear Qurites,

We know times are tough now and we all have to push a little bit harder. We came up with two programs that will help you earn some extra upvotes and visibility from Qurator, and will also help Qurator to reach more Steemians/your friends that need some extra help.

Write a post about Qurator.

Our long time members know how it all works. You have been with us through thick and thin.

Share your experience with your friends and followers. We would love to know how our members see Qurator and what they like (or don't) the most about the project.
Feel free to write in your own native language. We are open to all languages and have already translated our main Qurator post to several languages.
Well written posts will receive some extra upvote love from Qurator and a resteem. :) Feel free to drop your post link in our Daily Qurator comment section, so we don't miss it.

Invite a friend.

Do you know someone who is starting out? Or maybe someone who is posting great posts for a while but still need more exposure? Refer Qurator to your friend and after they get approved and become a member you will also receive a bonus 1SBD upvote on your most recent posts.

There are two ways to do it and this is how it works:

	Option 1 - Referrals	Option2 - Sponsorship
1	You refer a friend to Qurator	You sponsor a membership to your friend
2	Your friend sends registration fee to Qurator and mentions your name in the memo: `referred by @your_steemit_username`	You send registration fee to @qurator with your the person's name in memo: `@your_friends_username`
3	Our team reviews the account	Our team reviews the account
4	Your friend is approved - you receive a 1SBD upvote	Your friend is approved - you receive 1SBD upvote

Keep in mind that all registration rules still apply and all account will be reviewed by our team. You can read about content requirements in THIS post.

Note: Both programs are open to everyone, not only Qurator members.

Steemauto Curation Trail


	The new curation trail is active and running! If you would like to support your fellow Qurites or just earn some extra curation feel free to join our curation trail that is active on Steemauto. Steemauto guide and registration info

We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.

Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprise for a lucky trailer. =P
