Don't Ask Deaf People If We Can Lipread...Just Don't.

May 28, 2026

As many of you know, I started a series a few months ago titled, "Things I Wish Hearing People Would Stop Saying." I got great responses on YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram. I posted one of them on LinkedIn last month, and that video was flooded with comments, too! I am so glad people are responding well to them.

Last week, I uploaded a video about hearing people asking if we can lipread. This is such a common misconception. A friend of mine had asked me why I thought this was such a common thought, and I was stumped for a second. I honestly think it has to do with A.G. Bell and the Dark Ages of the Deaf Community. Do you have any thoughts as to why? Comment on this post or reply to this email.

I uploaded this one to YouTube yesterday.

Saturday Was Filled with Honey, Lavender and Laughter
Thank you all so much for attending last Saturday. I truly enjoyed chatting and teaching you all how to make Honey Lavender Scones! They came out beautifully! I have been chatting with a venue for our next in person ASL baking class! Still ironing out details but it most likely will be in October. I am not sure if I can handle doing an event in August but I will let you all know. My interpre...
My Biggest In-Person ASL Baking Class YET!
This just might become the biggest in-person (aside from my test class) ASL baking class I have hosted yet! I am so excited but incredibly nervous. New venue, new faces, and new interpreters! I'm ok! The other thing I am nervous about is making sure I don't forget anything! I will be triple-counting the ingredients and tools on Saturday morning! If you still want to join us, there are two ticke...
