OT Martha vs Maxine I prefer Maxine
My daughter sent this to my wife.
I thought that it was cute.
Sorry , but could not figure out how to post the graphics
Martha:
Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips.
Maxine:
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
To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.
Maxine
Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix, keep it in the pantry for up to a year.
Martha
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.
Maxine
Go to the bakery! They'll even decorate it for you.
Martha
If you accidentally oversalt 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."
Maxine
If you oversalt 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 and I don't care how bad it tastes!"
Martha
Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.
Maxine
Celery? Never heard of it!
Martha
Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking to yield a beautiful glossy finish.
Maxine
The Mrs. Smith frozen pie directions do not include brushing egg whites over the crust so I don't.
Martha
Cure for headaches: take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.
Maxine
Take a lime, mix it with tequila, chill and drink!
Martha
If you have a problem opening jars, try using latex dishwashing gloves. They give a non-slip grip that makes opening jars easy.
Maxine
Go ask that very cute neighbor if he can open it for you.
Martha
Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.
Maxine
Leftover wine???????????
HELLO !!!!!!!
As usual, if you don't forward this to 1 of your friends within the next 5 minutes, your belly button will fall off. Really... it's true! Have I ever lied to you?
Maxine
