Author: \u00a0Spring (Jordan)<\/em><\/h3>\n

I have been enjoying the fragrance of my paternal grandmother’s stove-top potpourri every fall and winter for as long as I can remember. \u00a0Every year she sends a big bag of it to me. \u00a0Finally, I decided to get the recipe, and I would be a bad blogger if I didn’t pass it along to you. \u00a0Unfortunately, you’ll have to take my word for it – It smells GREAT! \u00a0Remember, this is not to be consumed. \u00a0It is for simmering and smelling, only.<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

STOVE TOP POTPOURRI<\/h3>\n

Use equal amounts of the following.<\/h3>\n

All spice<\/h3>\n

Dried orange peels, cut into small pieces<\/h3>\n

Whole cloves<\/h3>\n

Cinnamon sticks, cut into small pieces<\/h3>\n

Juniper berries, optional<\/h3>\n

Rose hips, optional<\/h3>\n

A few drops of cinnamon oil<\/h3>\n

Mix all ingredients well to distribute the oil. \u00a0Store in an airtight container. \u00a0It can be put in plastic or cellophane bags for gift giving. \u00a0To use, sprinkle a few spoons full in a pan of water, and simmer gently without a lid. \u00a0Do not let it boil dry.<\/h3>\n

Note: \u00a0Grandma, who is 87, has always purchased all of her ingredients from The San Francisco Herb Company<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em>(She writes out an order to them).\u00a0\u00a0Their prices are great because you buy in bulk. \u00a0She adds the rose hips and juniper berries for color only.<\/h3>\n

Have a great week-end!<\/h3>\n

Cheers<\/h3>\n
