[Ag-eq] Adaptation

[Jody W Ianuzzi]

Hi Nela and all,
 
I have been thinking of the adaptations I have made in the kitchen and I agree I just use standard equipment with the exception of a talking timer and bump up dots to mark my appliances.
 
I use an oversized mixing bowl so I don’t have to worry about making a mess on the counter. 
I have a flat top stove which I hate.  I wish I had an old fashioned stove with burners, it was so much easier to center the pans on the burner.  I also wish I had dial controls.  This stove has a touch flat pad which reacts just by touching it unlike my microwave which only reacts once you press the flat pad.  I have bump up dots on both stove and microwave flat pads but I have to be careful not to touch the stove pad except to find the raised dots. 
 
I also go by time and smell to tell if food is cooked.  I do have a reputation for over cooking things.  It is funny but my kids prefer over cooked bacon, eggs, grilled cheese and pancakes because that is what they grew up eating.
