[Nfb-krafters-korner] OT: Measuring liquids

[Terry Knox]

Barb,
Being totally blind and doing a whole lot of wash, I am am an expert on this
one. I ALSO USE THE BOTTLES THAT HAVE the pour spout on the bottle. I pour
the liquid while holding the cap for measuring directly over the machine,
top loader, and after pour in the soap I wash out the lid in the water flow
going into the machine and reseal bottle. I will say, I HAVE A SMALL
PLASTSSIC BOX THAT I have my soap sitting in in the cabinet over the washer
which I will clean out when I change bottles. I REALIZE THIS MIGHT BE A
LITTLE MORE DIFFICULT WITH A FRONT LOADER BUT USING MY FINGER AND NOT
WORRYING ABOUT A LITTLE OVERFLOW IS NO BIG DEAL.
Terry K

Joyce, I have the measuring cups that I can use, but I want to know how you
pour your laundry soap into it without making a mess or overflowing or
having to take it into the kitchen, risking drips, and rinsing it out each
time.
I want to know how total blind people do it.
