>Imagine for a moment that nothing in your house is labeled in braille.
>Or maybe you don't have to imagine it! Do you reach in the fridge for
>some OJ and grab the milk carton instead? Ever sprinkle some cinnamon on
>your French toast--but it's cayenne pepper instead? And are you wearing
>your new maroon silk blouse, or the one with the plaid pattern that
>clashes with almost every skirt you own?
>
>These examples may be extreme, but think about it--are you expending
>more mental energy on identifying things than you would like?
>
>In Label It!, author Judy Dixon sorts through the labeling strategies
>that she and her friends have used through the years and identifies the
>very best ideas and tips. Focusing primarily on labeling with braille,
>Judy covers all the bases: clothing and accessories, medications, food
>containers, appliances, and a hodgepodge of other items, from postage
>stamps to chargers and cables. She also discusses what to do when you
>can't label something, and tricks to employ when you're out and about
>and nothing is labeled. An extensive resource list at the back covers
>labeling materials and products. This is the most useful book you'll buy
>all year!
