Day 225: $2 to Cincinnati Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired

This year marks the 100th anniversary for the Cincinnati Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired. To mark the occasion, the organization teamed up with Busken Bakery to offer braille cookies. The cookies are $2 with $1 going directly toward funding CABVI. I purchased two cookies (and already split one of them with my sister). The cookies come with a printing braille sheet that lists the alphabet and numbers with a brief explanation. They also come with a little bag of dots to add to the braille symbols in the cookie.  Are the dots edible?  Good question; it doesn't say anywhere. Anyway, I just think this is a cool idea, and a wonderful way to make money. After all, Busken cookies are some of the most delicious in the world, braille dots or not.
