How Gourmet Grazin' came about

I'm Teresa, and I established Gourmet Grazin’ LLC in September 2023. I love to entertain and bring families closer together.

Gourmet Granzin' was established in September 2023 this time of year has aways been a painful time for me due to the death of my only child, Desiree’ Lynn White, who was born on December 15, 1998 and killed on September 13, 2018.  I’ve struggled over the years from September through December, trying to fill the emptiness in my life and trying to find something that would bring me joy again.

My daughters best friend Heaven who has been like a daughter to me, traveling and staying with us over the years. Heaven was expecting her first child in October and her  mom was creating a baby shower and I offered to do a 6' grazing table and that started it all.  I received an overwhelming amount of responses.

I finally found a love of creativity that I can share with family and friends.

The significance of the arrow is my daughter, Desiree's tattoo that I took her to get. I wanted my business to have a part of her that most of her close friends and family would recognize.

   I put everything I got into this business passion my money, love, sweat, and tears. I have events booked and every time I do an event, I realize I have found my true calling and something I truly love to do. I want to bring families together by creating wonderful foods and memories.

            I have several people I want to thank that have supported me through the years  and have been there for me. My sisters Trish, Allison and Debbie for loving me and never judging me and supported me.  I love you all and so blessed to have you. My best friend Deniece Cavell for never giving up on me, Mauria who has helped with photography, graphic design, and moral support and always being a friend to my daughter. Heaven for being a true friend to Desiree’ and loving her and still being here for me and for the new little life that she is bringing into the world Emma Jean Desi King in September 2023.

  I want to thank God for all the blessings he has given me through my life.
