| | Martha Stewart Says:
If you accidentally over salt a dish while it's still cooking, drop in a
peeled potato and it will absorb the excess salt for an instant "fix me up."
Real Wimmin Say:
If you over salt a dish while you are cooking, that's too damn bad. Please recite with me the "Real Women's" motto: "I made it and you will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes."
Martha Stewart says:
Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.
Real Wimmin Say:
Take a lime, mix it with tequila, etc., chill and drink. You might still
have the headache, but who cares?
Martha Stewart says:
Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips.
Real Wimmin Say:
Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for Pete's sake. You are probably lying on the couch, with your feet up, eating it anyway.
Martha Stewart says:
To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.
Real Wimmin Say:
Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix and keep it in the pantry for up to a year.
Martha Stewart says:
When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won't be any white mess on the outside of the cake.
Real Wimmin Say:
Go to the bakery. They will even decorate it for you.
Martha Stewart says:
Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking to yield a beautiful glossy finish.
Real Wimmin Say:
The Mrs. Smith frozen pie directions do not include brushing egg whites over the crust, so I just don't do it.
Martha Stewart says:
If you have a problem opening jars, try using latex dish washing gloves. They give a non slip grip that makes opening jars easy.
Real Wimmin Say:
Go ask the very cute neighbor to do it.
And finally ... The most important tip:
Martha Stewart says:
Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.
Real Wimmin Say:
Leftover wine?
