Family Favorite: Citrus Potpourri

Fall is a season in which my home should smell good. The cooler weather makes me want to burn candles and feel cozy. When I was young, my mom often had citrus potpourri simmering on our fireplace. Today, the same potpourri is simmering on my stove. 

To try it, just add the following ingredients to a small pot and simmer:
  • Orange peels
  • Water
  • Cloves (I stick them into the orange peels)
  • Cinnamon sticks (or just cinnamon)
Enjoy!

P.S. I'm not sure this concoction fits the definition for "potpourri." Potpourri is supposed to be dry. Do you have any ideas for a better term?
