SMELLS LIKE CHRISTMAS

1 cinnamon stick
10 whole cloves
1 teaspoon whole allspice
1 1/2 tablespoons pickling spice
1 orange, cut in half

Place spice ingredients in a spice bag or piece of cheesecloth tied with a string.  Place spice bag and orange in 1 quart of boiling water.  Simmer on top of stove, being careful to keep covered with water.  Can be reused for several days, if kept covered with water.  The whole house will smell like Christmas.
