Simmer Fruit Peels For Holiday Home Fragrance

Near the the holidays, I find myself buying more apples and oranges than usual. I love the aroma of baked apple pie or the smell of oranges. Whenever I peel an apple or orange, I throw the peel into a pan of water on the stove. I add some cinnamon, or cinnamon sticks (whatever I have), and let it simmer on low. Eventually the fragrance fills the entire house and it smells wonderful!
