It's Beginning to Smell a lot like Christmas

So yesterday I might have gone a little bit crazy in decorating for Christmas... I LOVE Christmas! And one of my absolute favorite parts is the "Christmas Smell."

You know what I am talking about. 

So after I was all done decorating (which took a surprising amount of time, considering our apartment is, umm, one room haha) I dragged Jean Paul to the store to buy spices to make the "Christmas Smell." 

And I have since fallen in love with it, and so I've decided to share the recipe, which I found online, so I don't claim it as my own.

Enjoy!

5-6 Cinnamon Sticks, Broken.

1 tbsp. Lemon Peel

1 tbsp. Orange Peel

2 tbsp. Whole Cloves

1 tbsp. Nutmeg

1-2 tbsp. Whole Allspice

1 tbsp. Bay Leaf Pieces

3-4 slices dried apples (optional) 

Mix all ingredients with a good amount of water and simmer on your stove for as long as you want your house to smell like Christmas!
