Martha vs. Maxine



*Martha's Way*
Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips.



*Maxine's 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*
To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.



*Maxine's Way*
Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix, keep it in the pantry for up to a year

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Martha's Way*
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's Way*
Go to the bakery! They'll even decorate it for you.

*Martha's Way*
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's Way*
If you over salt 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's Way*
"Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.



*Maxine's Way*
Celery? Never heard of it!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Martha's Way*
Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking to yield a beautiful glossy finish.



*Maxine's Way*
The Mrs. Smith frozen pie directions do not include brushing egg whites over the crust so I don't.

*Martha's Way*
Cure for headaches: take a lime, cut It in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away



*Maxine's Way*
Take a lime, mix it with tequila, chill and drink!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Martha's Way*
If you have a problem opening jars, try using latex dish washing gloves.

They give a non-slip grip that makes opening jars easy.



*Maxine's Way*
Go ask that very cute neighbor if he can open it for you.

*Martha's Way*
Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze in to ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.



*Maxine's Way*
Left over wine??????????? HELLO!!!!!!!
