Oh, I may just provide some feedback. I suppose Cheryl told Kevin that
there are a lot of people from other places who really enjoy the service.
They also have articles on pets that they have continued. I think if he
knows that people enjoy all the work that Cheryl put in for 20 years he will
continue. Most of the Have You Seen This articles dealt with food products.
They still have a lot of grocery ads and since many of them are for national
chains like Wal-Mart they can help us too because they mention brands and
things that just may be around my stores in Michigan.
I think I will stop talking about that subject in here but I should take
more time and explore a lot of things besides the recipe of the week. I
used to use their TV listings when they used to have it and the sports
section when this one nice gentleman used to do the college bowl schedules
and the NCAA basketball brackets and times and stuff. They always took that
little extra time with some things you could not even do on Newsline.

Hi Laura, thanks for your info on the older blind line. As I don't live
in Oklahoma either, I won't plan to provide feedback. I am glad to know
the service exists.

Hi Becky,
The number is 800-829-3255.
You press 1 to get into the system.
You go into newspaper articles, which is 2, and then features which is 2
again. Then recipes is 8.
But there are many other features on that system. I have not looked it
over since it has been changed so there were a lot of things still there
since Cheryl used to run it. It has just made a transition to the
Oklahoma Library For the Blind from the agency that Cheryl worked for so
patience has to be taken with them while they still work on it. I suppose
it was just for Oklahoma people but now I know there are
a lot of us who really like it from all over.

I love those recipes and have a very large collection of them but have
not transcribed them into braille. I put the audio recordings of them up
in my phone system recipe group. If you braille the ones you get I
would appreciate it, but I still intend to do many of the ones I have
from when Cheryl was reading them. She always did three or four recipes.
Now they only do one or two but I am glad they are continuing them.
They now read them on Monday, not Tuesday so if you wait until Monday
night or Tuesday you are out of luck. Lucky another girl also records
them into another recipe group or I would have missed it this week.

hi everyone,
A weekly recipe is usually read on the Older Blind Information Line.
If there is enough interest, and if I can remember to record and post
them, I'll send them to the list.
This recipe comes from the Tulsa World newspaper, the Scene section.
Enjoy!
