Cologne, Germany

Our first Christmas in Germany!

First Christmas after being back

So, Christmas Market is a must!!!

We decided to do an impossible mission of doing a Day trip by train!

I definitely do no recommend

But it was an experience!!

haha!

We walked around an explore first

The boys wanted to ride the Ferris wheel,

So we did!

This was actually fun!!

You can see all of the Christmas markets above!

Then we headed to the Cathedral,

It was definitely crowded

I highly suggest don't go during the Weekends!

I got my wine to warm up!

So good!

This Cathedral is amazing!

IT was Beautiful

We definitely have to come back and explore more!

Just amazing!

We head back home

with food to eat in the Train!

IT was relaxing!

Burger king Germany is sooo good!!!

Had to get me something Soupy!!

Trier, Germany

Cold days are almost here,

But before that happened 

we enjoyed the Sunshine in the Beautiful places close by,

I've heard Trier is a good Day trip and we did.

The old town is so charming.

Something about European Architecture amazes me.

It was a semi busy Saturday.

The Cathedral was Beautiful!

I'm glad we had a chance to go inside.

I highly recommend!

We did more walking around its so pretty and clean everywhere!

We headed back to the Old town for some Gelato and Snacks!

Wine in the center was so unique!

I had to have a glass!

It was a beautiful day!!!

Highly recommend Trier!!

German Sausages Board

 

I was planning on making this Board for Oktoberfest,

But we had plans so I didn't get to do it.

I was gonna wait till next year,

But I couldn't wait any longer.

The endless Sausage options here in Germany made me do it.

It makes me excited to try all kinds!!

Of course,

my love for Prosecco will never change =)

We bought everything from GLOBUS!

It was soooo good!!!

Hubby also Grilled some Marinated chicken with side salad.

It was a perfect dinner!!

I would be so happy to have this all the time!!

Thanksgiving 2024

Our first Thanksgiving in Germany was nothing but amazing!

It was a lot of cooking but so worth it!

My favorite Table Set up

Love how it looked!

My Big boy loves to make something and help us with cooking,

So I let him make something creative like this!

The Oreo Turkeys.

And this amazing Turkey Cheese Ball.

Oh my god,

We couldn't stop nibbling it while making the Main dishes.

It's a perfect Appetizer before Thanksgiving meal!

I will come back and Post the Recipe of this when I can!

The perfect drink.

Mango Mimosa.

We are definitely all festive here!
