Scenting the house, questions

[Mahagonny Bill]

Mahagonny Missus and I are in the incense camp. We like to use "Song Of India Temple Incense" which is a melange of different scents rolled together. We put the incense sticks and/or cones throughout the house to use like potpourri and only occasionally burn it. Works great in the car too!

Good cooking.

Take some apple cores and skins, or overripe apples, throw some cinnamon in and simmer on the stove for a bit.... Heaven.

The house never smells so good as when I'm making my special recipe porridge, with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, cardamom, ginger, blueberries, cherries, vanilla & almond extracts.

I was trying to remember and finally found it. This brand diffuser is so strong I moved it to 3 different rooms. Never found anything smell so good for a home.
last forever and definitely worth the price. Nice looking bottle also.

Having read many horror stories of various "air fresheners" causing indoor pet birds to drop dead, I have avoided them. That being said, I have tried Frankincense from a local Ethiopian market, love the smell, and still have the bird. It is a bit tricky to keep it from just burning up (the Frankincense, not the bird).

It would be kind of cool to have a phoenix, though.

A vanilla bean in the fridge keeps bad smells at bay.
Orange essential oil is good for taming spicy, meaty, greasy kitchen smells.
Orange and Cedarwood together is great.

fftopic: sorta....saw your vanilla bean tip and was reminded...I got a new fridge over the weekend and the delivery guy told me before stocking it up with food to wipe it down with a mix of water, baking soda and vanilla.
