Christmas-time just would not be Christmas unless all of our senses were involved. This tradition is for the nose. We like to simmer a festive potpourri all month. The neighbors love to poke their head in to see if there's something baking because it smells SOOO good. "Sorry guys, it's not for eating!"
Here's the recipe:
Christmas Potpourriorange peels
ground cinnamon or cinnamon sticks
water
Mix all ingredients in a sauce pan. Simmer on low for 1-2 hours. Replace ingredients each time you simmer. Enjoy!

I am totally doing this. I love it. I think that this will be one of my NEW traditions.
