I use an old mini crock pot. I don't have a wood stove so this way I don't have to worry about it burning on my stove. Love this!!

[@pokemaster6939]

I rented a place with those old huge radiators. Winter, I kept a bowl of cinnamon sticks and cloves on them all the time. It added a bit of humidity plus smelled great

[@HalfLatinaJoy86]

Thank you! I'm going to get some rosemary and make a simmer pot when I get back from the grocery later (its 2AM, not doing it now, lol). I'll do rosemary, rosehips, grapefruit and oranges, cinnamon, cloves, and star anise (that was a great suggestion!). I may add allspice as well. Before it gets too strong, I may go ahead and take some as a tea, it sounds tasty!😅 I was actually thinking about doing a simmer pot so this is a great idea!

[@homesteadingatnorthernwaye193]

Now that Christmas is over I am making my tree into Balsam Fir syrup for the winter colds and flus and it makes the house smell wonderful

[@rosewarrior7458]

What a wonderful gift idea! So glad you are educating everyone about the toxic, chemicals in commercial synthetic air fresheners!! Thank you so much!! Merry Christmas and Blessings to You and Your Loved Ones! ❤🤗🥰😍

[@charlesbale8376]

Enjoyed the information and appreciated the information.

Your awesome keep the traditions alive

[@debichats8634]

I love simmer pots! I have enough supplies for a couple of them but YIKES! Cranberries can’t be found in central Virginia!!! I don’t even have any to make cranberry sauce….Never had a Christmas without it even though we always have ham! Apparently the harvest wasn’t as good this year as usual? Who woulda thunk it? I was going to get 5 or 6 bags. Use 1 for Christmas and the rest to freeze for making “Craisins” and more potpourri….I guess I need to go prune our little cedar tree that I’ve been trying to get hubs to cut down since it’s in a very awkward spot on our property…..REPRIEVE! I’m so devastated…..no cranberry sauce for Christmas dinner unless we get really lucky! 🥲

[@CherylBelczak]

I made these last year and they were a hit! This year I saved stems when I harvested fragrant herbs like lavender, rosemary, sage, and lemon verbena and I'm going to experiment with adding them to the simmer. Sounds good in theory. Thank you, as always, for sharing your knowledge and creativity. Happy holidays. ✨

[@kimtaylor7544]

Love your idea of saving fragrant stems! I'm gonna try that as well to use in future simmer pots😊

[@timnelson4488]

Thanks for the great video. Happy Holidays.

[@harrietpeabody2118]

[@TheHoneystead]

[@rosaramirez4730]

I was just wondering is you mom ok I have not seen her in a while have a blessed day

[@TheHoneystead]

She is doing well, we just don’t have as much time to film together with all the many hats we wear and my schedule has changed 💛

[@dancnluc1]

Years ago, I had a wood stove in the living room and lived it. I would put a simmering pot on it. Also, I loved putting a Dutch oven with soup or stew on it and let it simmer all day. The house smelled good, and the family had a meal to eat at the end of the day. Now my wood stove is in the basement.

[@jessicafairfax_Bens_Bees]

Love this video, reminds me of the winters in the house I grew up in with our wood stove. Hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 🐝💜🎄🎉

[@barbarakarman8427]

[@kimtaylor7544]

Thanks for sharing. I'm just trying simmer pots this year for me and for gifts. Thanks for your recipe and thoughts😊

[@junewrogg6137]

Merry Christmas!!!

[@maxgrimes6337]

Hello, My name is Max Grimes. I watch your channel all the time. I believe in herbal medicine but my wife don't. She has Parkinson's Disease and it is getting worse. We are both in our late fifty's. I love her so much. I was wondering if you can tell me what to do to treat it?

[@joyinthewind1]

My mother took fluphenazine and it was miraculous. She was treated by MHMR. Fluphenazine was expensive though. She would get one injection per month. My mom always thought that we were messing her up. That drug made it harder for her to slip and play with us. Prayers for your situation Max.

[@MrYisc]

Thanks for all the videos this year. Merry Christmas to you and all your loved one. Is your mom doing well? We haven't seen her in any recent videos. I hope she is just busy with other things. Greetings all the way from The Netherlands.

[@ВиталийПетров-ъ9и]

Привет!!! классное видео!

[@jessicameyer4135]

How would you recommend adding cranberries to a simmer pot for a gift?

[@Romans828girl]

I think I would just make it a refrigerated gift. I would put it in a quart jar instead of a pint, and add my cranberries and my cedar or juniper sprigs to the jar as well, and tell them to store it in the fridge and use it within a week or two. Or you could use dried cranberries.

[@hhandiman]

I wonder if you've used fig leaves.

[@12prettythings10]

Your channel misses your mom......❤

[@TheHoneystead]

With our many hats that we wear, her free time is limited and I have only been able to film on certain days with the many projects that I am involved in.

[@overbeefineart2974]

How long will something like this typically last?

[@dcsblessedbees]

Haven't seen mamma or grams for a bit, Hoping you all have a Wonderful Christmas. Hay I have an herb aroma therapy question, my mother is going to make a few flaxseed microwave heating pads what would be some good herbs for aroma that wouldn't be to strong? Also is flaxseed the best seed to use?

[@phyllisatkinson4401]

Could you suggest what roses I can look for that have rose hips? I have knockout roses but never see rose hips on them. Thankyou for any suggestions. I'm in So Md, zone 7. I am going out to get some cedar right now to start a simmer pot minus the rose hips.😁Happy day to you.

[@TheHoneystead]

Your house is going to smell amazing 🙌 I am using Rosa Canina for my Rosehips ✨

[@joyinthewind1]

I've found that the Antique Roses are great for hips.

[@beverleymcdade8587]

Just curious as to where your momma and grandma went? We don’t see them anymore on your videos 😊

[@aprilvikingsable]

How do you prevent the sap from pines and such from sticking on your pots???

[@TheHoneystead]

I just boil with water and scrub it while it’s hot or designate a pot just for this!

[@aprilvikingsable]

@@TheHoneystead thanks, I will try that.
