I love the idea of your blog and hope you find an audience. Question, using canned soup makes cooking easier. But I hate washing out the can to recycle. Especially the can from cream of mushroom soup. I, too, have to adapt my cooking and cleaning up due to physical limitations. Do you think it awful to throw the can in the garbage headed for the landfill? Can I skip being green to make it easier to clean up my kitchen?Suzzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03070831818387139779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8330459061974010650.post-64848544824406942472013-03-02T11:18:33.730-05:002013-03-02T11:18:33.730-05:00Thanks, Lynda.

I remember many years ago when people would scoff at someone who claimed to have one of these illnesses; I do hope that people have learned a lot about compassion in recent years.

Some tricks for the fridge: put things that are hard to handle or reach in plastic shopping bags in the fridge so you just have to hook the handles with your hand or reacher. <br /><br />Things dropped on the floor in their containers are more easily picked up by the reacher if you scoot them into an open paper gift bag with the reacher, then grab the bag handles to pick it up.<br /><br />A good reacher can be found at quadtools.com, custom made and only require wrist extension to grip solid.<br /><br />JeffJeff Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08762137240753209646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8330459061974010650.post-46615956590163365832013-02-10T18:52:54.149-05:002013-02-10T18:52:54.149-05:00Oh that "wheel thing" is lethal!Oh that "wheel thing" is lethal!

The blender is a Godsend. <br />I no longer chew gum and a stay away from Tootsie Rolls for the same reason. While they are yummy, they aren't worth making your jaw so weak you can't close your mouth.
