My mam seems to be losing the ability to use a knife and fork. Foods like soup, served in a bowl and eaten with a spoon are no problem at the moment, so dad and I are trying to think of easy to eat foods that she could have like this.
But dad himself has dietary problems and there is such a lot that he can't eat, such as red meat, spices, etc, so finding such meals that will suit both of them is difficult. He really doesn't want to have to cook separate meals for them both if it can be avoided.
Having read Norrms post about coloured crockery made me wonder if there is anything that would help mam to use a knife and fork, any specially shaped ones, for instance, or whether anyone has any other tips that we could try?
