Hi Florence! The scent of those warm spices in the air is a wonderful welcome during the cold winter months. You may want to try making a stovetop potpourri (also known as simmering spices). You can take your collection of cinnamon sticks (or even ground cinnamon) and other spices (like cloves, orange peel or allspice) and add them to a pot with some boiling water. Keep that simmering on low for a few hours (topping off with water as needed) or place it on top of a wood buring stove for that great armoa. While we don't have a specific recipe to recommend, a quick on-line search is sure to bring some inspiration!
