One of my resolutions for the coming year should be keeping this place alive and kicking. I will do my best, anyway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are some highlights (in random order) that have kept me busy and happy during the ending year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Returning to Estonia. Taking up a country home deep in the woods of South Estonia. It is wonderful to be just where I am!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YnqSrCiuEVo/Tv9cHuZCTzI/AAAAAAAAADo/d5iWZV31b8Y/s1600/DSC02299.JPG"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YnqSrCiuEVo/Tv9cHuZCTzI/AAAAAAAAADo/d5iWZV31b8Y/s320/DSC02299.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. New Zusak (Estonian translation of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Messenger_(Markus_Zusak_novel)"&gt;&lt;i&gt;The Messenger&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/a&gt;), published in November.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7UKC1z5p5Xs/Tv9cbJY-RiI/AAAAAAAAAD8/OBREnRwGnk4/s1600/R128702.jpg"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7UKC1z5p5Xs/Tv9cbJY-RiI/AAAAAAAAAD8/OBREnRwGnk4/s400/R128702.jpg" width="262" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.

Translating for &lt;a href="http://www.nationalgeographic.com/"&gt;National Geographic&lt;/a&gt;, issued monthly in Estonian since October.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6hpKV0ZIqfA/Tv9cZHHsVqI/AAAAAAAAADw/3W7Uf166Qvs/s1600/376388_162009243897861_159693204129465_247812_1325760449_n.jpg"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6hpKV0ZIqfA/Tv9cZHHsVqI/AAAAAAAAADw/3W7Uf166Qvs/s320/376388_162009243897861_159693204129465_247812_1325760449_n.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Going back to school. Yes, I'm a law student now. Who would've guessed...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Last but not least - &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/kerasoftwear"&gt;crafting&lt;/a&gt;. Indeed, it has been rather quiet in my Etsy store and I have made things mainly for myself or as gifts for my loved ones. I constantly have a WIP of two in progress, but I'm having difficulties keeping it serious. Maybe - hopefully - I will find some more time for handicrafts next year.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- - -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt; Väike 2011. aasta kokkuvõte asjadest, mis on hoidnud mind tegevuses ja rõõmsana.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Kui hea on olla tagasi kodus!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Kaks ilusat raamatut: &lt;a href="http://www.epl.ee/news/kultuur/zusak-on-geniaalselt-lihtne.d?id=63451718"&gt;Markus Zusaki "Sõnumitooja" &lt;/a&gt;ja &lt;a href="http://loterii.blogspot.com/2011/12/roald-dahl-keegi-sinu-moodi-2011.html"&gt;Roald Dahli "Keegi sinu moodi"&lt;/a&gt;. Nautisin väga mõlema tõlkimist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Tõlketöö ajakirjale &lt;a href="http://www.national-geographic.ee/"&gt;National Geographic&lt;/a&gt;, mis ilmub eestikeelsena alates oktoobrist. Järjekordne töö "hingele" - fantastilised fotod (mis muidugi veelgi süvendab mu pildistamiskrampi!) ja suurepäraselt koostatud artiklid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Tagasi kooli. Jah, ma olen nüüd juuratudeng! Kes oleks võinud arvata?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Viimane, aga mitte vähim tähtis - käsitöö. On tõsi, et aega selle jaoks kipub jääma üha napimaks, aga püüan siiski seda siit-sealt näpistada. Pea on täis uusi ideid. Kui ma murdosagi neist realiseerida jõuaksin, oleksin omadega mäel. :-)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/191681139309909138-5590581862011766481?l=kerasoftwear.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://kerasoftwear.blogspot.com/feeds/5590581862011766481/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://kerasoftwear.blogspot.com/2011/12/highlights-for-2011.html#comment-form' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/191681139309909138/posts/default/5590581862011766481'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/191681139309909138/posts/default/5590581862011766481'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://kerasoftwear.blogspot.com/2011/12/highlights-for-2011.html' title='Highlights for 2011'/><author><name>Epp</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14076645057345464884</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='33' height='29' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_NoEA0BQ6w1g/TQJlvNp6ZhI/AAAAAAAAAAY/F9jgoK9umfE/S220/Epp.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-YnqSrCiuEVo/Tv9cHuZCTzI/AAAAAAAAADo/d5iWZV31b8Y/s72-c/DSC02299.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-191681139309909138.post-7382260661767691746</id><published>2011-03-29T15:54:00.010+03:00</published><updated>2011-03-29T17:06:21.105+03:00</updated><title type='text'>Quantum leap</title><content type='html'>&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Well, I'm back in Frankfurt. One more time. A few months.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;It has always been a little surreal to leap from the snowy Estonian winter right into the German spring, in the middle of magnolias and other trees in full bloom. A kind of 'back to the future' experience; time-travel into the future at least one month ahead.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ztO1CjgO7es/TZHV5xygdmI/AAAAAAAAADY/v5OmyeJSyNk/s1600/FFM.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="266" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ztO1CjgO7es/TZHV5xygdmI/AAAAAAAAADY/v5OmyeJSyNk/s400/FFM.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;I'm so sorry I will miss the slow arrival of the Estonian spring this year (oh well, next time...), but there are so many positive things about my stay here as well, and this is what I'm going to focus on. Among other things, I am thrilled to reconnect and meet up with my fellow bloggers around here: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.applendeve.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Apple and Eve&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://bettinaloewen.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Betsi&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://frankfurtfashion.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Judith&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://zuhauseingermany.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Juliette&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt; and others.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="313" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-XAh45a_TPg8/TZHV5uHjoxI/AAAAAAAAADU/ygAK2DOjPeU/s400/FFM_2.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;In my next post I will write about a lovely (double) surprise by my fellow bloggers. An acknowledgement I'm so grateful for. At least I'm doing something right here, it seems. :-)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;- - -&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Väike "ajarännak" - mine võta kinni, kas tagasi või edasi - ja ruumis ümber paiknemine.

Mul on kahju, et kodumaa looduse ärkamisest seekord ilma jään. Aga toredaid asju on siin ka - ja nendele kavatsengi ma keskenduda.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"&gt;Järgmises postituses kirjutan armsast (kaksik)üllatusest, kahelt toredalt kaasblogijalt saadud auhinnast.

Spring? ... Shawl?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here it is: my biggest knitting project this spring: bright green silk/mohair shawl. It took me a while to finish it, not because it was a lot of knitting, but because I just couldn't bring myself to picking up the stitches for a simple lace edge. Too much math. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-8mYDuPvhksY/TYHnHUAoL2I/AAAAAAAAADM/ebRkS2xm7gQ/s1600/sall_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="300" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-8mYDuPvhksY/TYHnHUAoL2I/AAAAAAAAADM/ebRkS2xm7gQ/s400/sall_2.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oh, and of course, it took me forever to take the photos. I mostly have this problem with my finished objects. I have a pile of stuff, waiting to be photographed, but I seem to suffer from chronic 'photographer's block'. :-)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yarn: BBB "Soft Dream" (25% silk, 75% mohair)&lt;br /&gt;Needles: size 4.5&lt;br /&gt;Measurements after blocking: 72 x 144 cm&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Available in the &lt;a href="http://www.kerasoftwear.etsy.com/"&gt;store&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-KWwRqjplqHM/TYHnGIc2_nI/AAAAAAAAADI/zgz4LVCJZuw/s1600/sall_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="310" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-KWwRqjplqHM/TYHnGIc2_nI/AAAAAAAAADI/zgz4LVCJZuw/s400/sall_1.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;- - -&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Siin on minu kaua tehtud kaunikene kevadine suurprojekt - lehemustriga pitssall. Lõpetamine jäi mitmeks nädalaks toppama selle taha, et silmuste üleskorjamine ja pitsääre mustrikordade paikapanemine tundus kõrgmatemaatika. Lõpuks võtsin ikka asja käsile, ja kui juba äärepitsi silmused varrastel, kulges koera sabast üle saamine väga ladusalt. Valisin meelega lihtsa äärepitsi mustri, et see ei varjutaks põhiosa "hiirekõrvu".

Minu tegelik kirg ja kutsumus on aga sõnasõelumine. Mul ei ole kirjanikuambitsiooni, küll aga valmistab mulle suurt naudingut "vahendamine".

I was actually looking for something soft and chunky for another custom Scarflette (in mousy grey), but I accidentally happened to pass the shelf where my beloved Sevillas are stacked, and noticed something I just couldn't leave behind. They have new colours! The rich emerald green and breathtaking magenta, for instance.

Kuna neil on aastaid olnud üsna sama värvivalik, ei osanud ma isegi loota, et midagi uut võiks lisanduda. Aga need kaks nunnut, kirgas smaragdroheline ja imekaunis kuninglik punakaslilla... oeh! Kuigi seekordne missioon oli leida midagi mõnusat ja pehmet tellitud hiidmõõdus sallkaeluse jaoks, ei saanud neid juveele ju ometi poodi jätta.

I'd rather play with edgy, detailed tailoring and luxurious/smart fabrics than colours. The reason for this is that I want people to see &lt;i&gt;me&lt;/i&gt; instead of my flaming red mini skirt or candy-coloured shirt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DATUf4UnDjk/TWDtyQojfKI/AAAAAAAAABs/fY6zw-IF2iQ/s1600/memory_1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="202" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-DATUf4UnDjk/TWDtyQojfKI/AAAAAAAAABs/fY6zw-IF2iQ/s400/memory_1.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Box cover of the Visual Power Memory Game by BIS Publishers&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;This, however, doesn't mean that I don't appreciate colours. I do, very much. And to compensate the monochromity of my wardrobe, I like working with bright colours in my craft projects. The acid green shown in the previous post, for instance. But there is more where that came from. Especially after a very productive photo shooting with my friend Laura yesterday. I still need to sort through the photos, but you can expect some new items in the &lt;a href="http://www.kerasoftwear.etsy.com/"&gt;store&lt;/a&gt; soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today, instead of showing any new finished objects, I will leave you with some rainbows I found around me this morning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pwOkkyYnLBc/TWDt0TfvqeI/AAAAAAAAAB8/GrNxMIo279Q/s1600/rb1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="317" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pwOkkyYnLBc/TWDt0TfvqeI/AAAAAAAAAB8/GrNxMIo279Q/s400/rb1.jpg" width="400" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;My dear Polychromos, set of 24.

Must tint valgel paberil, must kiri valgel ekraanil... Isegi hommikukohvi joon ma &lt;a href="http://www.iittala.com/web/Iittalaweb.nsf/en/products_eating_dinnerware_taika_mug_04_l_black"&gt;mustvalgest tassist&lt;/a&gt;. Ja ka mu garderoob on suuresti must-valge (sekka mõned hoolikalt valitud (ühe)värvilised hilbud ja muidugi sinised teksad). Selle põhjuseks on mõtteviis, et ma tahan, et inimesed näeksid &lt;/i&gt;mind&lt;i&gt;, mitte mu leekivpunast miniseelikut või kommikarva särki. Pigem eelistan mängida detailirohke rätsepatöö ja heade materjalide kui värvidega.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Jwv5oQIwaDw/TWDtzAwKMdI/AAAAAAAAABw/QUD_wuFVcr4/s1600/niidid.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="270" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Jwv5oQIwaDw/TWDtzAwKMdI/AAAAAAAAABw/QUD_wuFVcr4/s320/niidid.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Sewing threads by Güttermann&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/tbody&gt;&lt;/table&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;See aga ei tähenda, et ma värve hinnata ei oska. Lihtsalt, ma eelistan neid sõrmitseda, mitte kanda. Ja käsitöös kompenseerin seda, mis mu enda garderoobis puudub.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;tbody&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wwK2kcIwpNo/TWDtzork2tI/AAAAAAAAAB0/KQP9TbxPzFE/s1600/rb_2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-wwK2kcIwpNo/TWDtzork2tI/AAAAAAAAAB0/KQP9TbxPzFE/s320/rb_2.jpg" width="318" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;tr&gt;&lt;td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Pearl threads by Coats.

A trifle too cold for my jogging routine (I'll come back to this topic some time), but the SUN is just worth killing for! There is no better way to start your day than having a nice foamy latte in a sun spot. Which I have done. Every. Single.

To bring it even closer, I have recently turned towards bright spring colours. This adorable radiant (or acid? or radioactive?) lime green, for instance. There's more coming up in this shade - especially after a very productive consultation session with &lt;a href="http://www.mustikmari.blogspot.com/"&gt;Maarit&lt;/a&gt; last night.

Tõeline luksuslik &lt;/i&gt;touchy-feely &lt;i&gt;kogemus.

I am keeping &lt;a href="http://www.koopdegrace.blogspot.com/"&gt;koop de grace&lt;/a&gt; active for the time being, to re-direct all my friends here. After today there will be no more new posts, though.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;This blog was created as a satellite to my brand new Etsy store (fresh starts, remember), &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/KeraSoftwear"&gt;K-E-R-A Softwear&lt;/a&gt;. Playing around in Etsy has become such a dear hobby to me. I have met so many wonderful people through Etsy shop-keeping and blogging, both virtually and in real life, that I wouldn't give neither of these activities up in a million years!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;- - -&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Need, kes mind (ära) tunnevad, teavad, et blogikirjutamine pole minu jaoks uus tegevus. Olen sellel maastikul (k)ekselnud juba üsna tükk aega, aga valged lehed mu elus eeldavad uut algust ka blogimises. Mu endine pesapaik, &lt;a href="http://www.koopdegrace.blogspot.com/"&gt;koop de grace&lt;/a&gt; jääb veel mõneks ajaks aktiivseks, et mu sõbrad mind siit üles leiaksid, aga pärast tänast sinna uusi postitusi ei lisandu. Siia aga küll. :-)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times; font-style: normal;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NoEA0BQ6w1g/TQPDFfPwh6I/AAAAAAAAAA8/_zFl1cItKR8/s1600/must_4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="312" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_NoEA0BQ6w1g/TQPDFfPwh6I/AAAAAAAAAA8/_zFl1cItKR8/s320/must_4.jpg" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Tere tulemast K-E-R-A Softwear blogisse, mis on loodud satelliidi ja hääletoruna mu &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/KeraSoftwear"&gt;samanimelisele uhiuuele Etsy-poekesele&lt;/a&gt;! Nii Etsy kui blogimine on saanud mulle niivõrd armsaks hobiks ja ma olen nende kaudu tutvunud nii paljude toredate inimestega, kellest mitmega oleme lausa kaitsva arvutiekraani tagant välja tulnud ja päris elus kokku saanud (ning pole sealjuures kordagi pettunud!), et ma ei tahaks sellest mingi hinna eest loobuda.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Nii kavatsen ma ka edaspidi haljastel Interneti-karjamaadel kepselda.
