MessageI started with Gloria in braille letters I think and then we taped. Then she got some idea I thought I was better than her which was not true. I had just gotten married and was learning to cook and other things. I guess she was not able to do things independently and just because I t talked about it a lot because that was what I was trying to do in my middle 20's she dropped me because she didn't think I realized that we all have different abilities and how we learn and stuff. Oh well, I just let her go because at the time I didn't have the time to argue with people and I figured if she felt that way maybe I didn't need the negativity around me. I can't remember how Kitty and I lost touch. Lora

I think I recall hearing the name in pen and tape pals circle; Gloria? Gloria McGoff Rathbone, possibly? ----- Original Message ----- From: Lora Leggett To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, June 21, 2009 3:15 PM Subject: [RecipesAndMore] Re: TOMATO - ONION - CHEESE CASSEROLE Yeah, me too. There is a girl named Gloria that we all also knew back then and maybe she would know if Kitty is still alive. Kitty would probably be in her 80's now.

I just wrote to Cooking Friends today asking about this. I used to correspond with a lady named Kitty who was a lot older than I am. She was probably in her middle 50's when I was in my 20's and she was giving me some recipes on tape. Like a dummy I was copying it on very thin paper from old phone books with my braille writer. Well, you know what happens to braille on thin paper over time. The dots get squished down. That meal was so good when I made it shortly after we got married and i have wanted to make it again. That is so cool! Now I need to get tomatoes and onions!'You have made my weekend.
