For some cooks, the gratification of preparing a meal at home can be overshadowed by anxiety and frustration in kitchens that aren’t set up to accommodate limited mobility or vision, fatigue or reduced limb strength.

For example, a few weeks ago, my s'mores shopping spree led to some amazing roasting sticks that I never thought I'd own.
