Hello Macular Degeneration Aids for the Kitchen Using Contrast, Convenience and TouchWith the holidays approaching it's a time for gathering friends and family, sharing conversations around the dinner table and serving loved ones their favorite recipes.

Use easy to see large number measuring cups, ask Alexa to set your timer, and cut up your food on a cutting board that provides contrast. Add a stick on tactile bump to your oven for the bake mode. Enjoy the convenience of providing guests with coffee, tea or hot cocoa by using a Keurig and "no spill" pre-packaged pods.
