Hi everyone, with the holiday season approaching, we’re looking to compile tips and tricks for inclusive cooking experiences for those with hearing loss. Whether it’s adapting communication in the kitchen or finding new ways to involve everyone, we’d love to hear your ideas and personal experiences. What strategies have you found helpful for cooking with friends or family members who have hearing loss?

Hey Gil,


Hope all is well.


Truth be told, usually in my family, everyone has dishes they famous for, which means they cook in their own home. Then, everybody would meet up together and feast.


However, this year, we are hosting a destination Thanksgiving and we will be cooking in our accommodations. I am glad you asked this question, for I hadn't thought about all of that! I will surely be prepared to advocate, advocate, advocate. I have a picture of my accommodations, but I'm still not aware about the acoustics, lighting, etc. I will be giving them a friendly reminder of my hearing loss, and along the way, be sharing the best way to talk with me. I am building my stamina to speak up as we speak! LOL
