As the Christmas season continues so does Matts and mines desire to go to as many Christmas markets as possible!
On Sunday we went to our local Christmas market in Cochem. It was a chilly day and kinda cloudy but still very nice. This Christmas market is smaller that then one in Trier but more charming. We enjoyed walking around the city together looking at the vendors wares and sharing a cup of gluhwein. We have quite a collection of glasses started!
We went to our favorite little shop in Cochem that sells liquors, wines, and olive oils by the mililiter. I was on the lookout for a cherry liquor and I wasnt disappointed! They had a couple varieties but I settled on the winter cherry...delicious! I put it in my diet coke and it tastes like a cherry coke! We have also started to collect liquors/wines/beers for our new years party :)
It was a lazy sunday but still a funday!
