On of my favorite things to prepare for Christmas is “Christmas Scent”. This is a must for when you are entertaining during the holidays. My Mom passed this to me and it is the perfect “touch” to have as a hostess.
Ingredients:
3, 4″ Cinnamon Sticks
3, Bay Leaves
1/4 cup whole cloves
1/2 lemon, halved
1/2 orange, halved
1 quart water
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a tea kettle or saucepan and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer as long as desired. Check often and add more water as needed.

I think I’ll try to do this in a crock pot. It may take a bit longer to get the aroma going but I won’t have to eyeball the water as much & use less electricity.
Thanks for all your wonderful tips; I appreciate you.
Merry Christmas to you & yours.
