Scents of the Season (Simmering Potpourri)

This is just a fun one that I got from my sister-in-law. She makes this and give it as gifts for her neighbors at Christmas. You can use food dehydrator or dry in the oven. Just place dried ingredients a small sauce pan and simmer potpourri for days on low, it lasts a while! Just keep adding water! (Or use potpourri crockpot) It makes your house smell so festive!

1-2 oranges, sliced
2 lemons, sliced
1-3 cinnamon sticks
1/2 c. cloves
1-2 Bay leaves
1/3 c. fresh cranberries

Add one quart water and simmer on low heat. Add water as necessary!
