"Happy Thanksgiving" (with helpful tips from "Martha Stewart" & "Maxine")



Martha says: "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-up."




Maxine says: "If you over salt a dish while cooking, that's too bad. Please recite with me the cook's motto: 'I made it and you will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes.' "






Martha says: "Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips."



Maxine says: "Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for Pete's sake! You're probably lying on the couch with your feet up eating it anyway."





Martha Stewart says: "To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes."



Maxine says: "Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix. Keep it in the pantry. It keeps for a couple of years.



Martha Stewart says: "Don't throw out leftover wine. Freeze it into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces."





Maxine says: "Leftover Wine??? When has that ever happened?"
