Maxine -vs- Martha

We all know the lovable and all too true, Maxine. Well now we'll hear her answers to some of Martha Stewart's Tips. This was just too cute, I had to share it!
















Martha: "Stuff miniature marshmellows at the bottom of an
ice cream cone to keep it from dripping."

Maxine: "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:"To keep potatoes from budding,
place an apple in the bag with the potatoes."
Maxine: "Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix.
Keeps in the pantry for up to a year.
Martha: "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: "Go to the bakery! Hell, they'll even decorate it for you!
Martha: "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.'"
Maxine: "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, you will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes!'"
Martha: "Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the
refrigerator and it will keep for weeks."
Maxine: "Celery? Never heard of it!"
Martha: "Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before
baking to yield a beautiful glossy finish."
Maxine: "The Mrs. Smith frozen pie directions do
not include brushing egg whites over the crust, so I don't."
Martha: "Cure for headaches: take a lime, cut it in half and
rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away."
Maxine: "Take a lime, mix it with tequila, chill and drink!
All your pains go away!"
Martha: "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: "Go ask that very cute neighbor if he can open it for you."
Martha: "Don't throw out all that leftover wine.
Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces."
Maxine: "Leftover wine??????????? HELLO!!!!!!!"
