Who are the Tiny Tarts?

The Tiny Tarts are the Country Tart's two young daughters who help out so much in the kitchen, in the creation of this blog and in the production of the SERVING up a SMILE weekly column, that it only seems fitting that they get their own space to share what it is they do.

Kids Can Write Healthy, Too!




It seems I have been blog negligent as of late and my Tiny Tarts are not terribly happy about having to be cast aside for my many other ventures.  Here we have our six year old  as she began writing in her journal to create her own entry.  Way to go, kid!


It didn't take long for her to decide she needed to type it directly into the computer.   One more person in this house vying for use of the laptop.  Sigh.   I am one proud mama, nonetheless, so please find her first ever self written Tiny Tarts blog, below:

My Blog, Kid's Can Eat Healthy Too:


Kids can Eat healthy too. Lots of kids think they do not like Healthy foods, but guess what I found out when I eat junk food the taste gets stuck in my taste buds. One day my mother served yogurt. And I asked if I was able to have some. And I liked it. and That day I found out that I only like home made Greek yogurt.

Here are some things that will get kids to eat healthy foods. Brownies with black beans. Vegetable dip with Greek yogurt. Banana and blue berry and baby spinach smoothie.
Almond chocolate milk. If you like lots of not good for you things Try these things.

Rock on, little Matava!    Expect additional kid-inspired entries to follow~


Food Journalist in the Making: In this house, it seems it's expected that someone will come to the dinner table with a camera in hand!

Just a Quick Note...
