[Nfb-krafters-korner] ideas for a bracelet

[NCBootman]

Good job Henrietta! Just remember, you may not get points for age and may 
not get as many as he, but, he has more control to exercise too. So, be 
proud of your little 21 and I know from experience, you will do it. And, 
isn't it challenging and fun to see just how good you can eat and have so 
much more food to eat? Kind of like a bite of cheesecake or a pile of fresh 
grapes! Or, all that huge pile of popcorn for a point with a little 
seasoning! It works.

Sighted people have these creative and pretty recipe boxes. Or, they 
decorate a notebook and have them in that. Does anybody in the group do 
anything like this? I have to admit that I just stick recipes in a plain 
notebook or a stack in my office cabinet. Surely some of us are more crafty 
since there's no reason we can't do things like scrapbooking and 
beautifying.
