It is with great delight that I announce that rq is joining the blogging team here at Affinity. Many of you are familiar with rq from the comments section of the blog where she has been contributing for many years. She is now ready to step up and do some blogging herself and we couldn’t be happier. She brings a lot to our team and we can expect posts on an interesting mix of subjects ranging from Baltic culture to the arts. Perhaps she’ll even share a peek into the random and interesting things that cross her path. For now there will be no fixed schedule for rq’s posts. Instead, they will come as happy little surprises that surface amidst our already mixed bag.
So now we are four. Four bloggers in four different countries, all with different interests and different points of view, but all wanting to share our worlds with you. We’re also a curious bunch and we want this blog to be a vibrant international community where other people share their worlds with us. That’s one of the best parts of Affinity. It has many voices and you just never know what will pop up. We also hope that one of those voices will be yours. We still invite you to share your favourite recipes, photos, arts and crafts with us. You don’t have to be a great photographer or a master artist to contribute. I’m certainly neither of those things.
I would also like to take a minute to acknowledge the founder of Affinity, Caine. This blog was her vision and she always welcomed contributions from her readers. Her voice was always encouraging and it is because of her support that I even dared to try blogging. Caine expressed a desire for rq to become part of this blog and I know that she would be thrilled by the news.
Affinity just became more interesting. I hope you’ll all help me welcome rq.
Yay and welcome here onboard.
I’m so happy to finally have you join us.
Congratulations, rq! You are part of a great team, and thank you, all of you, for keeping Affinity going!
Yay! Wonderful news!
Hooray and WELCOME to rq! This is great news. Really glad to hear it and I agree, Caine would have been so happy about this. I am so looking forward!

Saw the thread listed yesterday on Recent Posts on FTB, and thought it might be announcing the addition of rq to the Affinity posters. Congratulations and welcome to rq. The more the merrier.
Congratulations, rq, and welcome!
