Guest guest Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 Ladies vs. Real Women 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 darn 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 anyway. 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 dish washing 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
