A few days ago my husband came back from Hamburg, from the Hive Meetup called BuzzParty Hamburg 2024. I knew I could not go this time to meet other Hivers, which is always a great experience, but I sent some little painted rocks to two users I had already met in real life last year.
However, being a Hiver and having my husband there I also got some cool Hive goodies (thanks to the good organization of @tibfox) and a personal gift:
The black T-shirt is my size and the black cloth bag with the red letters is also my size... I declared it mine actually, as a bag is a bag and could be used by anyone but I am the one who likes them more than my husband so the answer to the question of who will use them is clear. The little Hive notebook is cute as well as the pens. We can certainly share that, I wouldn't be so greedy and grab it all for myself... would I?
And do you see one little transparent package full of pebbles... there, on the top of the black cloth bag?
Here is a closer photo of it.
I immediately knew what it was, although its appearance can deceive us. You can think they are pebbles for my new addiction hobby, however, they are rock-shaped candies! :))
We already tried them and ate a few rocks from this gift that @ninaeatshere sent me. A big thank you 🤗. But you and this gift made me want to do a prank. 😂 To pretend in some public place that I am eating real rocks and offer passers-by to try that too, but on second thought it wouldn't be a good example because I am sure some people would get it wrong and even try the real ones from the beach... They would blame me for the broken teeth... Dentists will be happy with more work though.😁
That idea was ditched as I didn't want to show a bad example even if it would be fun... in any case, talking about examples or promoting the best platform - I took this new Hive bag to our walk today!
The person you see in the mirror is me, carrying the Hive bag on my shoulder. Too bad the mirror was placed much higher than I am so the reflection is tiny - barely can be seen. When we sat on one bench to rest a bit, I took a better photo, the proof that our new and loved cloth bag took this walk with us.
On the same bench, I ate one loquat. It was small but sweet - almost the same sweet as the rock-shaped candies that Nina sent me. Btw, my husband's bag was checked at the airport... maybe they thought these candies were other things. 😅
After this stage, I made half of the loquat disappear too and we continued the walk.
It was a nice one (the walk), around one part of the town called El Romeral. Well, it is located between two municipalities, with some forests around, orange plantations and very nice houses and clean streets.
Unfortunately, not all the plots were this clean as you see here in the photos. In one part, by the road, there was a lot of garbage. When we see such a thing it makes us wonder why people can't take care better of their garbage... Do they throw empty cans and plastic bags out of the car window while driving; or it was the wind that blew the empty bottles and cans there, from a bin?
Whatever the reason is, people litter out of negligence or there are other reasons why garbage ends up in nature, we came to the topic of one of the activities my husband did with the other Hivers in Hamburg. It was the cleaning up activity they did on one beach in Hamburg.

They had some devices - garbage sticks to help them with the task. He said these sticks were really useful and precise, that even a cigarette butt or small, thin pieces of cellophane or plastic could be easily picked. It was an interesting activity but it is alarming why more and more garbage ends up in nature... We should definitely stop littering around... and try as much as possible to preserve the landscapes like this one!
It is also a gift we got from this world. 😉

Upvoted 👌 (Mana: 20/60) Liquid rewards.
Thank you 😇
ha ha... .I thought you had been gifted pebbles for your new addiction too, till you said they were edible and I wondered what flavor rocks would be.
Such nice gifts !
It was a perfect gift from Nina, she knew how to connect it with my new hobby 😇
You should do this prank somewhere near dentist's cabinet 😁
I should! And take a commission too 😂😂😂
What nice gifts. Wao! I had never seen a candy shaped like a stone, they really are very good for a joke jjj On the other hand I totally agree with what to take more care of nature, daily I see the little conscience of many people and the truth is that I do not understand it, it is very nice our house and we should love it like nothing else 🌎❤
Sometimes we act incomprehensibly, we destroy that we should take care of. And the gifts - they are cool, aren't they? 😇
Yeiiih What a pleasure to read that you liked the gift hahahaha the idea of puzzling people by offering them can be fun, but better with a guest at home than on the street. Hahaha
How crazy that they checked his suitcase, I hope the ingredient label was helpful in clearing up any doubts, wow I didn't think of that possibility.
I'm also super happy with the Hive merch, it's great to be able to use elements that promote blockchain.
I love the gift, don't you doubt! 😍 Hahaha, yes, I should do it with guests at home 😁 maybe even with my students haha
Husband - they didn't tell to him why his bag was suspicious 🤷♀ something like the machine can make a mistake hahaha. Well, all finished well, he arrived home and all the things from the luggage
Thank you once again!! 🤗
It was a pleasure. I'm glad you liked it enough to get through them fast! And it's a treat to befeatured in such a fun post!!!
¡Abrazos!
Qué geniales regalos. Los caramelos de piedra están divertidos y lindos jaja. Yo me quedaría con todo jajaja 😂😂 nada para mi esposo jaja ok broma. Ohh tenía tiempo sin ver un níspero. Saludos! ❤️❤️
Te quedarías con todo? 😁 Te escucharé jajaja
Bueno, la camisa azul me queda muy grande, entonces esa se la dejo a mi marido :D
Los nísperos - ahora empiezan a madurar. Están muy ricos! 🤤
Un abrazo @evelynchacin 🤗 a y Olivia también
Bueno puedo prestarle a mi esposo algo jaja pero solo prestado jajaja, si me queda grande puedo usarlo de pijama jajaja 😂
Creo que la última vez que comí un níspero era una niña, tengo lindos recuerdos con mis primas montadas en árboles recogiendo nísperos.
Muchas gracias amiga! Saludos a tu esposo 🤗
Dice que gracias y manda sus saludos igualmente 😇
The notebook and pen looks very nice!
That's so sweet of @ninaeatshere. Have you considered painting these rocks with edible paints or icing pens?
Yes, it was so sweet from Nina 😇
And your idea - how cool!!! 😀 but I am afraid the candies will disappear until I find edible paints hahaha 😁
Thank you! I believe that gastronomy is always there to please everyone and it was impossible not to think of our friend with these pieces of candy typical of this city. It was a gift that I had in mind for a long time, I was delighted to be able to send it to ☺️
You got wonderful gifts from Hamburg from your husband and Nina (he's an honest guy, he didn't take the gifts they sent you for himself, OK, I don't think he'd use a woman's shirt, but this purse suits a man too, doesn't it?) 🙂
When we were kids we ate "rock candy". I remember the fun we made while walking around Belgrade's Ada Ciganlija lake. Several of our friends had rock candies in their hands, and when a group of people came by, one of us would bend down, say out loud: "What a wonderful stone I found", allegedly pick it up and put it in his mouth and swallow it. I remember, people looked in disbelief 😁
Tell me, please, did you pick that loquat somewhere along the way or did you buy it at the market? It's a Japanese and Chinese fruit, and it's only available in Spain in the spring? Does it last or is it available in the markets until the middle of June?
He brought the gift, yes 😇 Nina would anyway tell me and ask me about the gift haha, so my husband had no other choice but to bring it to me :D
Hahaha, your childhood memory about these rack candies is so funny 😂
Loquat - yes, I picked it from a tree. They grow here and no, they can't be found later, just now when it is their time to mature.
Thanks🙂
So, if.I want to try Loquat, next time I have to plan a tour of Spain in the spring and not at the beginning of the summer 🙂
Exactly :)
So you planning to visit Spain at the beginning of the summer?
Malgrat de Mar and the surroundings (from Barcelona to Figueres)... The first half of June.
I just need to make a good plan for those 8 days, the wish list is already too long...
Yes, make a good plan and enjoy the stay. It's a bit far away from our place and June is a crazy month for me, especially will be this year... I can't promise a hive meetup, though it would be cool :)
Those meetup are really fun! And your husband sure really enjoyed it , I wonder if you know about some other Hiver living in Cayman islands or I'm the only one 😅😅
Good job señorita Mipiano de las rocas de caramelo 🤗
You are unique hahaha
No other Hiver de los caimanes 😂
Well, I am joking, I don't know, but I haven't met any at the moment ;)
Well the people in this island as far as I can see they are very busy all the time, and here is pretty expensive maybe for those reasons it's difficult to find hivers here I suppose 😂😂 I just have two months here 😅
Y cómo pasaron ya estos dos meses? Espero que bien. A lo mejor podemos ver un update algún día? 😉🕊️✨
Si me ha sido un poco difícil adaptarme porque son muchas horas de trabajo y el tiempo restante estoy muy cansado , espero encontrar mecanismo para manejar mejor el poco tiempo pero ya depende también de otras personas
What a nice touch to send you a gift from the meeting. And the bag...it was definitely for you!!! XD
How original those rock shaped candies!!!! The idea of the prank is great 🤣, but...better not to do it, though...if you were to become a dentist? 🤔 Good deal!!! 😜🤣
The garbage problem is a serious thing. In our country that is a big problem, especially the bad environmental education of the people and the lack of actions of the entities in charge. Yesterday Eddyss published a post about this topic. You will be surprised to see what the bad weather takes out of the sea and throws it to the shore.
Nice and necessary activity the hivers did on that beach in Hamburg.
Definitely, for me, you see :D
Well, well, I could become a dentist, not a bad idea - thank you for the suggestion hahaha, but then I need to offer to others real rocks and not just candies 😂
Littering around - that is sad, and your country is beautiful as far as I know, but how sad that people can't learn and change habits. 😒
Por supuesto!!! Naaa, es broma...aunque sigue siendo buena idea 😂🤣.
If you could see how the garbage is on the corner of my house right now...it's very sad and pitiful.
Love those Hive-goodies!!!!
!PIZZA
Me too 😁
I can imagine 😂

Hmmm I really thought its a pebbles. Cutie candies
They look like real pebbles, but then you have it in your hand and you feel they are candies ;)
deceive by the looks
These are small stones like this, they are very special. I myself collect them whenever I go to this river. I also wish to meet all those people with whom I have a long life I have been working for a long time.
Oh oh ..I am now afraid about people trying to eat my marble sculptures jajaja...
😂😂😂 protect them somehow then... or become a dentist 😂
What delicious stones, hehehe
I would have liked to see the result of the joke, but you can do it with the neighbours or the family.
@mipiano 😂😊
My family already tried, so maybe guests or neighbours hahaha ;D
All those gifts are so cute that you should keep them all! And the loquat looks good after your intervention. 😉
When I saw the sweet stones (hahaha, I never thought I would say this) the first thing I thought is that there are curious things in the world. Oh, I'm always like a little kid amazed with everything, even the simplest things. 🤷♀
The loquats always suffer these interventions haha - what would the book of good manners say? I didn't have a fork and knife with me 😂
Why? The little rocks I decorate are not sweet? 😳
...{crying emoji}...
😂
Oh! 😶🌫️ Yes, they are as sweet as honey. Everything here is sweet. 😄😅🤭
Yo tampoco me guiaría por ese libro para intervenir frutas. Jajaja ... Ay. Qué manera de reírme y me acabo de despertar.
Debería probar el cloth bag para ver si también es sweet 😂
😅 ay ay ay...
Pebble candy story is just interesting. As you said the dentist profession would boom if anybody tried it in beach. Nice gifts from Nina through your hubby. Abive all nice place to walk through
I am grateful she sent me these candies through my husband, not because of the candies itself but because of the detail and the meaning they have 😇
Surely, the sender of the pebbles knew that you like collecting pebbles hehe.. I remember your article regarding that.
I love the hive bag, btw 😍
I think now everyone on Hive knows that I collect and paint pebbles 😂
It was a super cute detail from her side ;)
Oh man.. now I want friends like yours, lol!! Would die to have some of these on my own!
😂
I hope you get some Hive goodies, soon. 🤞
Friends are always great - especially Hive friends 😇
I can only agree that! :)
What beautiful gifts! But I won't eat a stone hahaha I said to myself.... I ate a stone and then... it hit me.
But for sure someone on the beach would try it, there are people who do hahaha
On the other hand, usually everything is clean but sometimes... not. Anyway, Spain is super clean compared to other countries... you have no idea what I've seen!
You would eat these ones haha, come and be my guest so we can have a cup of coffee and a few rocks 😁
Yeah, Spain is cleaner than other places, I know, but still, people are sometimes ignorant and don't take care of nature.
Better coffee and cake... or coffee with... something else hahahaha🤣
It's true that many people don't take conscience, they throw rubbish or throw it wrong... it's sad.
Coffee with Baileys maybe? 😂
I can't stop laughing!!!!!! Or else I'll put it on the mate!🤣
You didn’t attend the Buzzparty but you were able to get some gifts that has the Hive logo and those rocks too
I’m glad you loved then
Kudos to your husband!
Wow does it look like a super experience ❤️ Hey! The stones look very realistic!
Realistic but luckily they were candies when I tried them 😁
Lovely post!... Hive's world is beautiful indeed! ;)... And that nispero (here we call it "japanese nispero") looks delicious, many years ago there was a plant in our house, but it dried up :(... Thanks for sharing, happy week!

I thought they were real pebbles you got from a fan 😅. Does the candy come in different flavors?
Seems like you took almost all the gifts your husband brought from the event for yourself 😅.
