[Nfb-idaho] request for a braille version of our Idaho potato cookbook

[Ramona Walhof]

We sold quite a few of the Idaho Potato Cookbookk.  Every recipe has
potatoes in it.  There are a fair number of cookbooks available in Braille,
but lots of people can't get too many.  My definition of a good fundraiser
is how enthusiastic the membership are about it. They have to get behind it
and make it work!   Perhaps the electronic availability would make sales
easier.  Is there a way to lock the information so people don't just copy
it?

Ramona,

Thanks! Fantastic!

I suspect we could assemble a large set of recipes across a whole spectrum
of food types and package them into one cookbook.

It would be the * Treasure Valley NFB cookbook,* and could be offered in
electronic braille, embossed braille (perhaps on plastic pages so it would
withstand typical kitchen materials), and hard copy or digital large print.

Could this be a fund-raising opportunity?
