Aaahhhhh...There's nothing better to bring you into Fall like the aroma of Oranges and Cinnamon in the air. I remember as a kid this smell gave me the urge to curl up by the fireplace all day!
This cooler weather has had us running our heater some nights. It's nice to stay warm, but the dry air takes a tole on us! Sure, we could buy a fancy schmancy air humidifier, but I like this trick better, and I think you will too. (:
My Mom always had a small pot of water with orange peel and a cinnamon stick simmering on the stove at home during the fall and winter. As a kid, I thought she did this to make the entire house smell yummy and cozy! Those two are a huge plus, but it really helps to put moisture back into the air. It wasn't until I had my own place and went an entire winter without our "humidifier" that I realized how great this little trick works.Now, I've made it sort of a tradition to simmer orange or apple peel and a cinnamon stick and sometimes a few whole cloves when fall comes around. Try it! You might find that you love it too. (:
