Feature Item: Chocolate Pecan Fudge- $15/dz

Tis the Season to Spread Cheer

As many of you know, the Worsham household might as well be called the North Pole from Thanksgiving to Christmas. My beautiful and talented mother began Gracious Garlands, a Christmas greenery business, over 15 years ago. Gracious Garlands has the honor of bringing the joy of the season into the homes of Nashvillians. With wreaths, trees, garlands, "kissing balls", bows, paper whites, and ornaments, my mother decorates others homes just like one of Santa's elves. Her creative eye and premier greenery truly transform homes into winter wonderlands. 

So, it is with that spirit I offer to you gift bags of Chocolate Pecan Fudge. Perfect for teachers, co-workers, family, or friends, the fudge comes festively wrapped and ready to give. This fudge is a fabulous treat for any holiday party whether it be caroling or cocktail. The fudge can also be frozen to have on hand for those last minute gifts!  Spread cheer this Christmas with Full of Lite's Chocolate Pecan Fudge.

Feature Item: Thanksiving Torte- $15

Something to Be Thankful For

I am thankful for my grandparents' table in Blowing Rock, NC where my family has gathered for almost 20 years to celebrate our blessings of grace and freedom on Thanksgiving. We have shared laughs and tears, graduated every grandchild from the kiddy table to the grown-up table (finally), and enjoyed delicious food prepared with dedication and joy around that table. This Thanksgiving Torte is a delicious morning treat that is easy to reheat in the oven before the crew wakes up. Its almond flavoring, cranberries, and pecans harmonize flavors of Thanksgiving. It may have you thinking about what you're thankful for! I wish everyone a blessed and safe Thanksgiving. Thanks be to God!

Personally Pumpkin


Feature Item: Pumpkin Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Icing- $16/dozen

Getting used to change can take a while. Since starting nursing school, my days in the kitchen have been few. I've missed the joy of cooking and tending to Full of Lite. Finally, the dust has settled, the leaves have started falling, and I have started cooking, again. My inspiration for these Pumpkin Cupcakes came while I was on fall break in Dallas and feeling the spirit of fall. These moist personal pumpkin cakes pair perfectly with a warm cider or your afternoon coffee. The cream cheese icing adds to the comfort of every bite. Celebrate the changing of seasons with these delicious treats!

Feature Item: Full of Lite Quiche- $20

This Full of Lite Quiche is easy on the waistline but loaded with flavor. The homemade oat crust, egg/egg white combo, and veggies "liten" up your old fashion quiche, but deliver the same southern comfort. Unlike certain "skinny" meals, with its caramelized onions, sauteed mushrooms, fresh thyme, and Gruyere cheese, this Full of Lite Quiche is promised to satisfy your palate. 


Perfect for any meal. Pair with fruit in the morning or an eclectic salad for lunch or dinner. Easy to freeze and have on hand as a quick fix meal. At only 270 Calories per slice (6 slices per quiche), this quiche truly is Full of Lite!

Feature Item: Heirloom Tomato, Herb, and Cheese Pizza Tart- $18

There's truly no better combo than heirloom tomatoes, fresh picked herbs, feta and mozzarella. I got inspiration for this tart from an article in Southern Living and a episode of Barefoot Contessa. I picked up tomatoes from the amish produce stand in Green Hills and used my garden's fresh herbs that I bought from Creekside Garden Center in Belle Meade.

As summer is slowly coming to a close, I knew I wanted to bring my love of summer's most luscious fruit to your family's table. The best feature of this tart is that it comes FROZEN and ready to pop in the oven whenever you decide to indulge! Just preheat the oven to 300 degrees and bake for 25 mins or until heated through. This 12" tart serves 2-3 and is perfect paired with a salad for a light but delicious meal. Hurry while it's hot because once tomatoes are out of season, this tart will be, too.
