stove top potpourri!

May I say before this post that I have started another blog, Ever So Sweet. It is devoted solely to baked goods and recipes for said baked goods. If that's your thing, check it out.

I'm cleaning my house today, and as I'm spraying down pillows with Febreze, I think to myself, "I want my house to smell like something yummy, but I'm too busy to bake."
Enter the stove top potpourri idea.
I went through my spice drawer and pulled out everything that smells yummy and autumn-y. Pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, cloves, cinnamon sticks, allspice, nutmeg... and threw a whole bunch into a pot of water set on low heat on my stove top. I sliced an orange and tossed that in too.
After about five minutes the whole front of my house smelled like spices!
So easy, so cheap ($0 to be exact) and so effective!
