Keep a short menu change log when several relatives give instructions
A shared household can generate many reasonable requests that become unreasonable when combined without coordination. A short change log helps the cook identify the current instruction. It should record decisions, not monitor every conversation or turn ordinary cooking into administration. The household owns resolving disagreements before expecting the worker to act.

Record only decisions that change work
Include cancelled dishes, extra diners, changed serving times and approved ingredient substitutions. Ordinary comments need not become entries. Keep each change short enough to read during preparation. A useful note says what changed, who approved it and which meal it affects. This is clearer than a long conversation containing several abandoned suggestions.
Use one place for the current plan
Choose a notebook, board or shared message format that suits the household and cook. Do not require the worker to search several personal chats for the latest version. If an instruction is given verbally, the household contact should update the agreed record. The format matters less than everyone knowing where the current decision is kept.
Resolve conflicting requests promptly
When two instructions disagree, the cook should know whom to ask and what to do while waiting. Continue unaffected tasks where appropriate, but do not require the worker to choose between relatives. The household contact should settle the conflict and communicate one answer. This protects the working relationship from disagreements that belong within the family.
Review whether the system is too heavy
If recording changes takes more time than it saves, simplify the categories or reduce the number of people issuing instructions. The log should support cooking rather than become a separate office task. After a week, ask which details were actually useful and remove unnecessary steps while retaining the clear current menu and approval contact.
A practical example to adapt
Hypothetical example: one relative cancels dinner while another adds two guests. The menu contact confirms the final count and writes one updated instruction on the kitchen board. The cook follows that version. The family no longer expects the worker to infer the latest plan from several messages sent at different times by different people.
