So Fresh and So Clean Hostess Gift

So I was just tickled to death when my friend AK popped in the other day and exclaimed how fabulous my house felt- she couldn't quite put her finger on why it was so welcoming. I immediately dragged her to my stove and showed her the above pot simmering away.   It makes your house smell fresh and delicious!

Another Pinterest idea- found here


Super simple- fill a small pot with water, add a sliced lemon, 2-3 sprigs of rosemary, and 3 tablespoons of vanilla extract.  Bring it to a simmer, and sit and sniff like I did!





Another idea? Wrapping the ingredients up in a little pot and bringing them as a hostess gift to the next party you attend!  Add a cute little tag with instructions, and that hostess will have a lovely day cleaning and airing out her house the next day post party!
