Cooking Odors

i have this little resipe for homemade potpourri: one orange quartered, tablespoon of whole cloves and whole cinnamon sticks. put them in a small sauce pan and cover the mixture with water. let it boil and your house will smell really fresh and earthy. i do this every winter. :) if you try it, i hope you like it. :)

I know this really doesnt help much but to let you know they now make ranges with odor eliminating factors for when you cook and when you self clean ( i sell appliances) but other than that i have never heard of anything

I would recommend a high end product called Lampe Berger. It ranges from around $30 to some very exclusive pieces that go for thousands. It basically burns alcohol..scented or unscented that destroys the bacteria causing odors. Simple to use and beautiful to display.

I highly recommend purchasing one at Boobe, which is an women's boutique in downtown Kenosha - just upstairs from Carolyn's Coffee Connection. It's definitely worth the higher price tag...

This sounds weird, but I promise it works! Take a capful of fabric softener and add about a cup or so of water to a saucepan on the stove. Turn to about med. high and get it to a boil...then, turn off the burner and just let it sit. You'll be amazed how great your house smells!! I do this sometimes right before we leave and then when we come home, it's great.

Good luck!

I agree with vinegar. Cheap and it works. Put bowls of white vinegar in inconspicuous places (like top of fridge, etc).

I usually boil a pot of water with cinnamin and apple peels.
