REAL WOMEN – If you over salt a dish while it’s cooking, that’s just to damn bad! Please recite with me the real woman motto: “I made it you will eat it however bad it tastes” Even easier - whats salt?

LADIES – Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.

REAL WOMEN – Take a lime, mix it with tequila, chill and drink. You’ll probably still have the headache, but who cares! Baileys is nicer without the lime tho - but dont forget to add the tia maria

LADIES – Stuff a miniature marshmallow at the bottom of the cone to prevent ice-cream drips.

REAL WOMEN – Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for Pete’s sake! You’re probably sitting on your ass on the couch with your feet up anyway! Why bother with the cone - ice cream tastes nicer in a bowl - plus you get more in a bowl than a cone!

LADIES - To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.

REAL WOMEN – Buy boxed mashed potato mix then you don’t need to worry about your potatoes sprouting arms and legs! Mash from the fridges in the supermarket is even easier!

LADIES – When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan, use a bit of dry cake mix instead and there won’t be any white mess on the side of the cake

REAL WOMEN – Go to the bakery ….. they’ll even decorate it for you they may even deliver you speak nicely to them

LADIES – Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking to yield a beautiful glossy finish.

REAL WOMEN - Sara Lee frozen frikkin pie directions do not include ‘brushing egg whites’ so don’t do it! Why buy frozen fresh pies from Mannings do well!

LADIES – If you have a problem opening jars, try using latex dishwashing gloves. They give a non slip grip that makes opening jars easy.

REAL WOMEN – Go ask the VERY hot neighbour guy to do it. That is if you have a tasty neighbour if not a bash on the kitchen top works as well as a knife in the lid!

LADIES - Don’t throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for use future use in casseroles and sauces.

REAL WOMEN – Left over wine!!!!!!!!!!

Whats left over wine - its lager in this house and any cans left over are soon emptied anyway!!!!
