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 Woman - 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 i! t 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 Woman - 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 Woman - 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 - Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking, to yield
a beautiful glossy finish.
Real Woman - 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 Woman - 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.
