These are standard items for making meatballs and kneidlach. They are not specifically meant for one-handed individuals, but they work!

Card Holder
I use something like this when I play a card game with the kids. Old Maid, Skip-bo, any game when you want see your cards.
Here is the link
Activehands.com
I’m excited to announce my discovery of a new website, activehands.com. I ordered a few things, let’s see how it goes.
Skirt Hangers
Sick and tired of dealing with skirt hangers that you have to squeeze open with one hand and try to catch the edge of the skirt in its mouth?
These hangers can be opened flat. You can the position the skirt (or pants) neatly in place, the fold and clip into place.
I haven’t been able to find long ones for sale anywhere, except for packs of 100. The longest ones I found at a decent quantity are 10″ wide. If you find wider ones, shoot me an email. Or, want to split a pack?
Shirt Hangers
I had two criteria for shirt hangers: they had to be thin enough and smooth enough that I should be able to tug at a top and it should slide off the hanger with minimal stretch..
These hangers meet both conditions. They are thin plastic hangers with none of that (in my opinion, ridiculous and) annoying flocking.
Here’s the link:

Bag Clips
I use them for everything!
Bread, barley, shredded cheese, if it comes in a bag…it gets a clip.
This comes in all sizes, and in various assorted sizes. Here’s the link to the variety pack shown above.

Just a tip: I stand up bags of pasta, lettuce, beans, etc, in tall containers so I don’t have to support the bag while I cut it open.
Shirt-Folding Board
Back in the days before my stroke, every year I would not the “Most Useless Product of the Year.” On year it was snowball making tongs; the inventors obviously forgot about hands! Another year it was a washable mat for under the high chair; you know, babies are always careful to splatter their food only on the mat.
And one year, it was actually this: the shirt-folding board. I mean, really!
But now, I hang my head in shame. If you’re trying to prove that you can do everything to the same standard as before, (and dong it once is all it takes to prove your point – you never have to fold laundry again once you showed yourself you can.), using this board makes it possible.
For example, before travel, if you want your clothes to fit neatly into your suitcase…it really works.
Rechargeable Lighter
Another simple one: When it’s hard to find a match, use a lighter instead.
I actually prefer the torch lighters for lighting Shabbos candles; they keep the fire going for long enough for me to light all 12 candles
Magnetic Necklace Clasps
These are genius! Have someone link them onto your necklaces, and you’ll be able to snap them closed on your own. (You keep one end of the chain in your mouth with the magnet dangling out, pull the chain around your neck, and let the magnets jump at other. )
They come in a variety of sizes and finishes. Here’s one link: https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71wWDdD9V6L._AC_SX679_.jpg
Vegetable Slicer, Dicer
These come in all types, with a lot of options for different sizes and shapes of slices. I’m not sure that this the one that I have, which is the reason I’m not sending a link. Also, it’s not news to most people, but I did want to mention it
