I too love to share with my family what I have canned, baked or cooked. Like you, it is my way of blessing them.<br /><br />Blessings to you! and I'm glad you found a recipe for an air freshener with the essential oils, I am just learning how to use them (taking a class tonight)but I and my hubby are loving them!
