Real Women Cooking Tips

LADIES- 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're cooking, that's too
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."
------------------------------------------------------------

LADIES- Stuff a miniature marshmallow at 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. You're probably sitting on the couch with your
feet up anyway.
------------------------------------------------------------

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

REAL WOMEN- Buy boxed mashed potato mix and you don't have to worry
about the potatoes growing arms and legs.
------------------------------------------------------------

LADIES- Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on
your forehead. The throbbing will go away.

REAL WOMEN- Take a lime, mix it with tequila, chill and drink. You
might still have the headache, but who cares!
------------------------------------------------------------

LADIES- 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
inside of the cake.

REAL WOMEN- Go to the bakery - they'll even decorate it for
you.
------------------------------------------------------------

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

REAL WOMEN- Sara Lee frozen freakin' pie directions do not include
brushing egg whites, so I don't do it.
------------------------------------------------------------

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

REAL WOMEN- Go ask the very hot neighbor guy to do it.
------------------------------------------------------------

And finally the most important tip....
LADIES- Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes
for future use in casseroles and sauces.

REAL WOMEN- Leftover wine??
