Martha Stewart vs. Real Women

Martha Stewart:

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 Women:

If you over-salt a dish while you are cooking, that's too darn bad.
Please
recite with me, The Real Women's motto: "I made it and you will eat
it."

Martha Stewart Cure for headaches:

Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing
will
go away.

Real Women Cure for headaches:

Take a lime, mix it with tequila, etc., chill and drink. You might
still
have the headache, but who cares?

Martha Stewart:

Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent
ice
cream drips.

Real Women:

Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for Pete's sake.

Martha Stewart:

To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the
potatoes.

Real Women:

Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix and keep it in the pantry. It lasts
for up
to a year.

Martha Stewart:

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 Women:

Go to the bakery. They'll even decorate it for you.

Martha Stewart:

Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking to yield a
beautiful glossy finish.

Real Women:

The Mrs. Smith frozen pie directions do not include brushing egg whites
over
the crust.

Martha Stewart:

If you have a problem opening jars, try using latex dishwashing gloves.
They
give a nonslip grip that makes opening jars easy.

Real Women:

Go ask the very cute neighbor to do it.

And finally the most important, and most telling, difference:

Martha Stewart:

Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for
future use
in casseroles and sauces.

Real Women:

Leftover wine??????
