> Subject: The Martha Stewart Way
>
> Martha's way #1:
>
> Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar
> cone to prevent
> ice cream drips.
>
>
> My way:
>
> 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's way #2:
>
> To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag
> with the
> potatoes.
>
>
> My way:
>
> Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix and keep it in the
> pantry for up to a
> year.
>
>
> **********
>
> Martha's way #3:
>
> 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.
>
>
> My way:
>
> Go to the bakery. They'll even decorate it for you.
>
>
> *********
>
> Martha's way #4:
>
> 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."
>
>
> My way:
>
> If you over salt a dish while you are cooking, that's too
> darn bad.
>
>
> My motto:
>
> I made it and you will eat it and I don't care how bad it
> tastes.
>
>
> *********
>
> Martha's way #5:
>
> Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the
> refrigerator and it will
> keep for weeks.
>
>
> My way:
>
> Celery? Never heard of the stuff.
>
>
> **********
>
> Martha's way #6:
>
> Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking
> to yield a
> beautiful glossy finish.
>
>
> My way:
>
> The Mrs. Smith's frozen pie directions do not include
> brushing egg whites
> over the crust so I don't do it.
>
>
> *********
>
> Martha's way #7:
>
> Cure for headaches: Take a Lime, cut it in half and rub
> it on your
> forehead. The throbbing will go away.
>
>
> My way:
>
> Martha, dear, the only reason this works is because you
> can't rub a Lime
> on your forehead without getting lime juice in your eye,
> and then the
> problem isn't the headache anymore because you are now
> BLIND!
>
>
> *********
>
> Martha's way #8:
>
> Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice
> cubes for future
> use in casseroles and sauces.
>
>
> My way:
>
> Leftover wine?
>
>
> *********
>
> Martha's way #9:
>
> If you have a problem opening jars: Try using latex
> dishwashing gloves.
> They give a non slip grip that makes opening jars easy.
>
>
> My way:
>
> Go ask the very cute neighbor guy next door to do it.
>
>
> *********
>
> Martha's way #10:
>
> Potatoes will take food stains off your fingers. Just
> slice and rub raw
> potato on the stains and rinse.
>
>
> My way:
>
> Mashed potatoes will now be replacing the antibacterial
> soap in the handy
> dispenser next to my sink.
