SIMMERING POTPOURRI

OK, so you can't eat this, but it sure smells good!

1 cup dried pine needles
6-8 small pinecones
1 T whole cloves
1 T whole allspice
3/4 tsp nutmeg
1 orange peel dried
3-4 cinnamon sticks

Mix everthing together in a large saucepan, and add 1 cup hot water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer. This smells wonderful, and can be used several times.
