Here is an easy way to add a freshening fragrance to your home, while at the same time increasing the level of warmth and comfort on a Winter day.
	We call our suggested warmup a boiled potpourri, but it's a lot easier than harvesting and drying wildflowers or buying expensive essential oils.  It's as easy as a large saucepan on the stove, filled with three cups of distilled water and two ounces of vodka (the vodka helps the mixture evaporate, and adds no extra odor.)  Bring the mixture to a boil, and add any one of a number of fragrance- producing items you probably already have around the house.
One of the best sources of fragrances is the spice cabinet, where cloves and cinnamon sticks can be found.  For a subtle savor, toss in some chamomile tea, or experiment with other herbs and dried flowers from the garden.  The candy jar is an easy source of scents . . . try a handful of cinnamon imperials or starlight mints (the red and white cellophane-wrapped kind).  If you're using herbs, an ounce per panful is suggested.
	Once the seasonings are added, let the mixture boil and neutralize that Winter mustiness.  You're also doing your home's heating a favor, since the humidity added by boiling potpourri makes the indoor temperature more comfortable!
