Air Fresheners

Al Carrell: You know, room deodorizers are a big part of our lives. We've got to get rid of those onion odors, smoking odors - all sorts of odors. How would you like to make your own air freshener? It's real easy to do with things you probably already have.

2 TBSP sage
15-20 crumpled bay leaves
Pour in 1/2 cup Witch Hazel (You can get that at the drugstore).
Mix up the ingredients.
Pour the mixture into a jar.
Seal the jar and keep it sealed for 3 days.
After 3 days, shake up the mixture.
Strain the mixture.
Pour the mixture into a spray bottle.

All you have to do is put the spray bottle in place, and now you've got an air freshener that'll fight any odors that you've got.
