Nice to meet you!

My name is Tova and I believe kids are absolutely amazing. I also believe good food is life giving and soul nurturing. I am a graduate student earning a Masters of Science in Nutrition Education from American University. I am a wife and mother of a 4 and 7 year old. I am a woman who loves to write, run, garden, sing, and climb trees. I am also passionate about how kids learn about food. Growing up, I learned that food was calories, and that calories were bad. I don’t want that for my children. I want my kids to learn that food can be fuel AND joy. Food can make you feel capable of running faster, creating more passionate art, and laughing harder with friends. Food is not the enemy, food is life.
