Martha Stewart vs Me...Martha's way: Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips.

They'll even decorate it for you. Martha's way: 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"My way: If you over salt a dish while you are cooking, that's too damn bad.My 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.My way: Celery?

If you feel bad later, you will know it wasn't fresh.Martha's way: Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.My way: Martha, dear, the only reason this works is because you can't rub a lime on your forehead without getting lime juice in your eye, and then the problem isn't the headache anymore, it is because you are now blind.Martha's way: Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.My way: Leftover wine? Martha's way: If you have a problem opening jars: Try using latex dishwashing gloves.
