Wandering through life one season at a time
I was browsing a site with Christian avatars when I came across an odd pic. It was right smack in the middle of several pages of Bible verses. I started laughing, called the girls in, and started singing the ‘One of These Things’ song from Sesame Street. They of course guessed immediately. Can you pick it out? LOL
Open my eyes, that I may behold
wondrous things out of your law.
Psalm 118:19
Now that Fall is here, I love to fill my home with seasonal scents – pumpkin spice, apple pie & cider are some of my favorites. I go through a lot of candles, but I also like to use a simmering pot on the stove to scent my home.
I fill a pot with water and throw in a little bit of whatever I have on hand: vanilla, cinnamon, apple cores, orange slices. (I keep a baggie in my freezer for apple cores – just toss them in the bag instead of the trash. You could do the same thing with orange peels.)
A bonus is the humidity added in your home – great for dry winter air. **Be sure to keep the temp low & check the water level occasionally.
