Hey: Does anyone remember a book from the seventies that was in Braille, which was a Campbell's soup recipe book. In the back of that book on the very back page was a little recipe for rice pudding. I still make it, although I don't have the recipe, so I don't remember exactly the measurements, I just make it up as I go. My kids who can be so expressive tell me that it looks like ... well, not good, but they still eat it anyway because they like how it tastes. (lol) It's cooked on top of the stove.

I am sure many of you have pretty extensive recipe collections. I've been going through and adding some from cookbooks I now have, into my digital collection I keep on a thumb Drive. I also added some from this list as well, not every one of them, of course. We all have different tastes and preferences. I also copied recipes from Cooking Light for a few years when I Used to get that magazine. Now, it has been replaced by another Magazine by NLS. I can get it from Bard if I want to. There is a braille cookbook I miss having. It's called Sharing, and was produced in the 1970's. It was a nice little braille book. I have added a diabetic section to my collection and have Several braille cookbooks in my collection. I also borrowed some books from the library and copied recipes I wanted from them. There is another cookbook someone sent to me on cassette called Popular Lithuanian Recipes, which was produced in 1955. It, unfortunately, is Only available in print from a place I know of in Chicago. I realize I cannot eat many of these recipes anymore, but for the memories of Childhood when I could, it's worth having anyway. I got another cookbook from the gift shop of the Lithuanian museum in Chicago called Good Tasting. I might Have it scanned and digitized one day and put on that thumb drive Where I keep all my recipes now. I have the NFB 50th Anniversary Cookbook in print. I got that when I attended a Convention in 1996. Not wanting to bring home a big bulky braille version, I opted to get the print one, which I can scan if I want to. Perhaps, someday, I will eventually Get that one digitized, as well as another one from St. Francis Manor here in Sacramento. I kept that print book for the memories of being there for Several years. And there are some recipes in the booklet that Came with my waffle iron. I am going to have my home Worker read them because the scanner does not scan certain types of print too well. I also got some recipes from the Net and have several Notebooks with wipeable plastic pages in case I want to use them. There are so many different ways to do this. I also have some audio cookbooks on 2 thumb drives, A bunch O downloaded from NLS, and some I read from various magazines and some loose pages Someone else had. I ausre am amazed at the amount of Recipes I have.
