The ways of Martha and Maxine
 |
 |
| Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent icecream drips | Just suck the icecream out of the cone, for Pete's sake! You are probably lying on the couch with your feet up eating |
| To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes | Buy mashed potato mix, keep it in the pantry for up to a year |
| 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 | Go to the bakery! They'll even decorate it for you |
| If you accidently 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" | If you over salt a dish while you are cooking that's too bad. Please recite with me the real woman's motto: "I made it and you will eat it I don't care how bad it tastes!" |
| Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting it in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks. | Celery? Never heard of it. |
| Brush some beaten egg whit over pie crust before baking to yield a beautiful glossy finish | The Mrs Macs frozen pie directions do not include brushing egg whites over the crust so I don't. |
| Cure for headaches: take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away. | Tale a lime, mix it with tequila, chill $ drink! till it goes away. |
| If you have aproblem opening jars, try using latex dishwashing gloves. They give a non-slip grip that makes opening jars easy. | Go ask that very cute neighbor if he can open it for you. |
| Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces. | Left over wine???????? Hello !!!!!! |
