This is what I understood:  I went to the kitchen cabinet and pulled out something, it smelled bad so I put it back, Jelly felt something, I washed my hands, took out chips?, I threw that away, I need to go to the store.

Some tips:  Keep your finger spelling level and calm.  You tend to bounce your fingerspelling, that makes it very hard to understand.  If you need to, use your other pointer finger to hold at the base of your palm to keep your hand steady.  

Don't swap hands.  In ASL you need to pick a dominant hand.  If you are right handed it's usually your right, if you're left handed it;s usually your left.  But pick one.  That is the hand that will be your dominant and you will use that for your fingerspelling.  It is bad form to switch hands when signing.  It makes things confusing for people when you swap.

    • Bad choice of words my apologies. Strike “them”. 
    • My name is Giuseppe. I found this forum to learn ASL and converse regularly. I’ve had a few encounters and felt bad that I could not communicate with them other writing on paper.    When in college I “ “ heard if you don’t use the knowledge of what you learned in 6 months you lose it 🙂 I’m hear to learn  from you all any day.
