Delicous Fall Aroma

I absolutely love this time of year! Fall brings a relief from the extreme summer heat, with crisper, cooler evenings that make it perfect for walking.  You just want to drink in the scenery of crimson, red, orange, yellow and green leaves.  Warm comfort foods replace outdoor grilling and the yummy spices make their way back into your recipes.

One of my favorite things to do on a weekend, is to take a medium size pot and fill it with three to four whole cinnamon sticks, 15-20 whole cloves and two oranges, sliced.  Fill the pot with water, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.  Refill with water every hour or so.  The delicious aroma fall aroma will waft through your home and make you feel like you've just stepped into a bakery filled with pumpkin and spiced pies.
