You know the way your mom or your grandma's (or whoever does the baking in your family) kitchen used to smell after a long day of baking holiday goodies? Now inhale. Your place have that lovely aroma? Here's a great way to get it. (While you can probably eat this, I wouldn't advise it. It's for scent only!)

Ingredients:

1 quart water

3 cinnamon sticks

3 bay leaves

1/4 c. whole cloves

2 strips orange peel

2 sections lemon

Directions:

Combine everything in a medium saucepan and simmer over low heat for as long as you like. Check on it every hour or so and add more water as needed. This should last about a week.

Enjoy!
