Fall is in the Air

Every fall I remember my mom bringing out a small pot and throwing in some whole cloves and a few cinnamon sticks. She would let it simmer on the stove and it would fill the air with the smell of Thanksgiving and Christmas. It's been getting colder so I thought it was time to bring out spices and let them simmer. This morning as I was eating a grapefruit I thought that the peel would be a nice addition to my spices, so I trimmed off some of the skin and threw it in. It smells amazing!

Grab some spices and let them simmer on your stove for a bit. Just don't leave it on overnight, that would be bad!
