  1. This was really nice. Infact, I felt like tossing this into the bath tub for a real relaxing bath. This has a great relaxing smell that is best enjoyed when the mind's off mood and you feel like tearing your head apart. This is the state I was in today and this fragrance soothed me. Thanks so much for it. A very good one.
     
  2. I used 1/4 apple, 2 cinnamon sticks, lemon juice and quite a bit of ground cloves (good way to use up that spice). Will be using this alot during holidays. Made for Think Pink 2009.
     
  3. It smells so good. I used maybe 8-9 cloves. I used 1/2 apple and 1/2 lemon. Thanks Nancy for posting this recipe. Made for Holiday tag
     
  4. Made the whole house smell like Thanksgiving and Christmas! I threw in a star anise because I had one that needed using. I did this on the stovetop, but will be using it in my little crockpot also! Thanks for sharing.
     
  5. A wonderful fragrance which I used in a Le Creuset fondue pot on top of my Godin woodburning stove! I found that the 10 to 15 cloves took over the other fragrances a little bit - so next time I do this over Christmas, I will put about 5 cloves in, and maybe 3 sticks of cinnamon! LOVED this however - it last for 3 days, being stored in the fridge at night as you suggested! Thanks for a lovely festive scent.....loved it! FT:-)

Hi, I live in the Ozark mountains in north central Arkansas. I'm married to Jerry for 27 years now and he had our two kids when we married. I didn't have any so he gave me his and I was happy to get them!8-) We have two other boys, JJ and Andy who are a daschund and a maltese respectively. JJ left us to go to doggy heaven in 2004. Now we have another Maltese and her name is Keisha. I usually call her "Keter-bug". I worked with developmentally delayed individuals in a state Human Development Center for 12 years and wouldn't change it for anything else. My favorite cookbook would have to be Joy of Cooking because it's like a Cook's Bible...if you can't find something anywhere else you will find it in there. I don't use it all the time but if I have a question it's the first place I turn. The one I use the most is a Louisiana Junior League cookbook called "Cotton Country Cooking". It has everyday food in it that is what we like to eat the most. I've cooked just about anything I can think of from lobster to raccoon. We even cooked turtle. The thing that I really get peeved about is when people try to be someone they aren't. If you are just yourself you'll come a lot nearer to being who you want to be which is probably accepted and liked by all. I'd like to go to Europe if I had a month off. I've always wanted to go to France because that's where one side of my ancestors are from, England and Wales since that is where the other side originates and then Scotland where even others are from. I think everyone should know their heritage.
