·       Original holiday cookie recipes to make you the talk of your annual cookie exchange.
·       Make sure your kitchen is stocked with the essential items you need for every day of the week.
·       Take a trip to the CIA (Culinary Institute of America) and to dine and learn without needing to enroll.

Sometimes the most powerful voices are the ones you can’t hear—until someone gives them the tools to be heard.

Judy Chinitz, the founder of the Mouth to Hand Learning Center (M2H) in Mount Kisco, teaches nonspeaking people in our community to communicate by typing. She was inspired by her son, Alex, now 31, who is completing his freshman year of college and considering a double major in math and English literature. 💡📚

We spent time with Judy, Alex, and several of the M2H students for this video in 2023—and we promise, it will move you. It’s emotional, heartwarming and even surprisingly funny. These students are some of the sharpest, wittiest people we know, and we’re honored to share their words with you.

If you want to dive deeper:
📖 Judy & Alex co-authored an article in our Sept/Oct Education issue (in print & online): “Presume Competence: A Teacher’s Power Move”—a call for educators to take responsibility and teach their students in a way that allows them to succeed.
📖 You can also revisit their feature from our 2023 Education issue: “F-O-R-C-E O-F N-A-T-U-R-E” on our website.
📝 And don’t miss “Out Loud,” a recurring page in every issue since Sept./Oct. 2023 where we publish poetry and short stories by M2H students (this issue, you’ll find it on page 90); all are published on our website.
We are continually inspired by this community, and we think you will be too. ❤️
