BOOKS ON TAPE FOR THE BLIND



Here is the link for information on books on tape for the blind. Being able to listen to books has be wonderful. I also like to listen to podcast on iTunes. Most public libraries offer a service to download books and movies directly to your MP3 players. You have to be a card holder to receive this service. The picture above is the new digital tape player offered.

THE KITCHEN

When I first lost my sight cooking was a big challenge. We had just moved so I had an electric stove with a flat top. It's is exactly what I recommend. I spilled over many posts of pasta, pored outside of the pot....
I only have vision in one eye so I had to adjust to not having depth perception. My husband and sons cook most of the time but we love our flat top stove. We can clean the spills up unlike a gas stove.
