Just For Fragrance

For a natural fruit fragrance, to water in your crockpot, try 2-3 slices of oranges and apples, and 2 sticks of cinnamon. Add a handful of cranberries for that festive fragrance. Leave on high for 3-4 hours before guests are due to arrive.

For a floral scent - a handful of dried flower petals in water.
