Hi, Kaitlyn. You really "unlike" the quote at the end of my emails? I'm not 
sure what you mean by that, but yes, I agree with you about cooking. Hey, 
even sighted people make mistakes when learning to cook, and many sighted 
people don't know how to do some things that come second nature to me, so I 
know blindness has nothing to do with that. It's all in learning how to do 
it young, and of course, some people just don't like to cook. That's OK, 
too. Take care.

Hi Julie,

That is so true! I knew other girls when I was growing up that were visually
impaired and they weren't let to cook and do a lot of things I did. Hey, we
made mistakes but we learned just like everyone else.

OH, and I really unlike the quote at the end of your emails.

Hi, Cindy. I think you're right. My Mom did let me help in the kitchen, and
she showed me how to do a lot of the basics. Once you know those, you can
usually teach yourself the rest, and that's what I've done, but I love to
cook now. I think it's probably true that if you let them do it young,
they'll grow up liking it, or at least that's how it seems to have worked
for me. Take care.

I loved reading, that, Sarah. Thank you for taking the
time to write it.

What's O & M?

Your mother sounds much like me, except I'm not as
much into hiking, etc. I guess I did enough little
hikes and walks with the kids, though, because my
daughters, especially the young one, love it and
camping.

We did plant vegetables--tomatoes and pumpkins--easy
to plant and care for and delicious to eat. And we
tried to plant corn, but we did't really have enough
room in the back yard to space the ears as far apart
as they should be. And we planted an avocado pit which
did grow into a tree but ever bore fruit. We didn't
know there had to be both a male and a female, or that
you could graft (we did try that but it did't work)
but it was fun seeing the pit grow. Notice the only
"gardening" we did had to do with food and didn't
require any work--just plant and watch grow.

I was like your mother re cooking, too. But I had
read, when the children were very young, that if you
let your children help you in the kitchen, when they
are grown they'll like to cook and bake and you won't
have to. So I gritted my teeth and let them help and
that advice was true. My daughters like to cook and
bake.  Now that they are grown and gone I don't cook
at all.

Cindy
