Forget Nigella Lawson, here's how us Real women do it :)
Delia's Way #1
Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips.
The Real Women's Way #1
Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for God's sake. You are probably lying on the sofa with your feet up eating it anyway.
Delia's Way #2
To keep potatoes from sprouting, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.
The Real Women's Way #2
Buy Smash mashed potato mix and keep it in the cupboard for up to a year.
Delia's Way #3
When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking tin, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won't be any white mess on the outside of the cake.
The Real Women's Way #3
Tesco's sell cakes. They even do decorated versions.
Delia's Way #4
If you accidentally over-salt a dish while it's still cooking, drop in a potato slice.
The Real Women's Way #4
If you over-salt a dish while you are cooking, that's tough sh*t.
Please recite with me the Real Women's motto: "I made it and you will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes."
Delia's Way #5
Wrap celery in aluminium foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.
The Real Women's Way #5
It could keep forever, I don't eat that crap.
Delia's Way #6
Brush some beaten egg white over piecrust before baking to yield a beautiful glossy finish.
The Real Women's Way #6
Sainsbury's frozen pie directions do not include brushing any eggwhites over the crust.
Delia's Way #7
Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.
The Real Women's Way #7
Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and drop it in 8 ounces of tequila. Drink the tequila. You might still have the headache, but who gives a sh*t?
Delia's Way #8
If you have a problem opening jars, try using latex dishwashing gloves. They give a non-slip grip that makes opening jars easy.
The Real Women's Way #8
Go ask mister tight arse, cute legs, single neighbour to do it for you.
Delia's Way #9
Freeze leftover wine into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.
The Real Women's Way #9
Leftover wine????!!!
