Note Factory, vol.2

Note Factory produces also squirrel ears and wasp parts.

Note Factory

A dear friend of mine asked if I could make some prop for the childrens organ concert she is giving with her friend. I love those kinds of jobs and she hates them, so I said yeeees and set up a lil note factory. It was fun. I can hardly wait for the concert... :)

Playing the Organ, vol.2

Playing the Organ is sooo yay that I can blog about it twice in a row. Today I practised Johann Kaspar Ferdinand Fischer's Praeludium et fuga and enjoyed. :)

Playing the Organ

One of my favourite things is playing the organ. Watch me practising Dietrich Buxtehude's Nun komm, der Heiden Heiland and feel free to giggle a bit. But only a bit - I'm goodish enough considering that fact that I started to play only a year ago. :) Here's another clip - Domenico Zipoli's All Elevazione II.

Bugs

Fascinating little creatures.

Doing together

I had a great day at the cottage with my parents and my nephews today. I cleaned and organized the shed with my mom, and the boys were sawing firewoods and making some other wood work with my dad. And ofcourse we had a campfire and some nice food [veggie soup, roasted whole grain bread with a peanut butter and jelly, a big pot of coffee, vegan cocolate chip cookies...] Yum and yay.

Knitting

One of the best things in autumn is definitely knitting! Dark starry nights, good music, candles, hot chocolate and knitting = yay! I think music is the most therapeutic thing but knitting gets the second place. [Okay - maybe a shared second place with hugging and snuggling but anyway.] And nothing warms up like mittens or socks knitted by love.

Home

I love travelling but I also love my home. I live in a lovely hundred years old wooden house in the city center of Kuopio [which is the ninth biggest city in Finland]. My home is small, only some 32m², but it's big enough for me. It's cosy and full of goooood energy. Come to visit sometime. You can find me from CouchSurfing.

Photographing

I always have my little camera with me. I love photos and capturing all the oddish and normalish [those are rare though, even with the -ish] moments in my life. Once when I was walking in the city center of my home town Kuopio, I saw this sparrowhawk having a little feast with a poor pigeon... It wasn't that pleasurable to hear the pigeon's neck to crack but I didn't vomit... and was fascinated enough to take some pics.
