This year doesn’t have to be different — even if you’re eating low carb or keto. We’ve got everyone’s favorite low-carb and keto cookies, including Santa’s.

Isn’t technology wonderful? Facebook and email make it amazingly simple to invite guests over for a casual get-together. You can send email invites, create an event on Facebook or just message as a group and let everyone know the date, time, and place of the cookie exchange.
