Speaking of breakfast, this Asheville-made granola is made with plump cherries, crunchy pistachios, and NO refined sugar--made with both taste and nutrition in mind. Trust us, Pete really knows what he's doing.
3. The Nashville Blanket Project Blanket
Gift one to a friend, and the Nashville Blanket Project will donate one to a person in need. We love it when you can shop local AND help people experiencing homelessness, all while gifting the gift of comfort this season.

It's getting darker earlier, so why shouldn't your honey? Tenneessee Artisan Dark Wildflower Honey has a satin appearance and rich molasses flavor, and adds a rich, natural sweetness to biscuits or your afternoon tea.

Loveless's own, Crystal, recommends mixing Loveless Sweet Potato Butter with a bit of cream cheese and dishing on top of cinnamon pita chips. Trust us, we heard about this yesterday and we've already got Stacy's on our weekend grocery list.
