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 are cooking, that's too damn 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 - 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 - 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. You
are probably lying on the couch, with your feet up, eating it
**********************************
Ladies - To keep potatoes from
budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.
Real Women - Buy boxed mashed potato mix and keep it in the pantry for up to a year.
**********************************
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 pie directions do not include brushing egg whites over the
crust, so I just 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 cute 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?? |
