I just spent my very first "low-carb" Advent.
We lit candles...drank coffee and herbal tea....I made a plate with "aufschnitt" (sp.) and cheese and pickles...(lots of schinkenspeck. YUM!)...fried eggplant...cucumber rounds topped with cream cheese and lox and smoked tuna...veggies and dip...my homemade SF truffles rolled in coconut...SF orange mousse cake with an almond-butter crust....
Did I miss the Niederegger marzipan, speculaas or Lindor balls?? NOPE!!
I sat and ate for 9 HOURS...we had such a good time...I've lost my voice for talking!
See? Even us 'Krauts can manage a low-carb Christmas!! I have faith in you...YOU CAN DO IT!!
My next Christmas project is going to be a low-carb trifle....
