Well, I'll give that a try.
I guess I just wanted to be somewhat co shire with sighted friends around.
I want to be able to help in things as well.  I know that if I'm the one
making my own sandwich or whatever, then I either limit or don't really use
the things like ketchup or whatever.  
I just don't want my friends to think that I can't do this kind of stuff.

Subject: Re: [CnD] Better techniques for spreading

When using a squeeze bottle for mayo or ketchup I put a glob of it on one
bun or piece of bread then slap the other one on it and move them around to
distribute it on both.
Butter, when soft, is fairly easy to spread in a single swipe on the bread.
Cold stuff that isn't whipped is much harder, and I've been known to melt it
in the microwave and then brush it on, which also doesn't tear up the bread,
which hard cold butter can do.

Subject: [CnD] Better techniques for spreading

Hi,

 

Again, this may seem like a weird question but I need to find a better way.

Does anyone have good techniques for a totally blind person to spread things
like butter on toast or some kind of thing on bread?  I'm trying not to get
my fingers involved, especially when I'm around other sighted people.  I was
in a situation where we were all helping with breakfast, and they asked if I
wanted to toast and butter the bread.  I toasted it but someone else
buttered it.

What about things like mustard on sandwiches or ketchup on burgers when we
use the squeeze bottles?  And, what are good ways to practice?

Thanks!

Will
