I don’t know which post to leave a comment about the cordial cherries so I’ll post to both. As long as I can remember it’s been a Christmas tradition for my dad to give us cordial cherries as gifts. When my dad passed away in July of 2012, my mom took it upon herself to keep up the tradition and has bought them for me and my sister every Christmas since. We only like the milk chocolate-covered cherries, though. The dark chocolate ones can go die in a Christmas fire.
hershey’s kisses are christmas though – unless only in canada – but they have the peppermint flavoured kisses
