    Delia versus real women

    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
    Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for God's sake.
    You are probably lying on the couch with your feet up eating it
    anyway.


    Delia's Way 2
    To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the
    potatoes.

    The Real Women's Way
    Buy Smash mashed potato mix and keep it in the pantry for up to a
    year.

    Delia's Way 3
    When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking tin, use 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
    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
    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
    It could keep forever. Who eats it?


    Delia's Way 6
    Brush some beaten egg white over piecrust before baking to yield A beautiful glossy finish.


    The Real Women's Way
    Sainsbury's frozen pie directions do not include brushing any egg white over the crust so I don't do that.


    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
    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
    What's the point of blokes then?


    And finally the most important tip - Delia's Way 9
    Freeze leftover wine into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.


    The Real Women's Way
    Left over wine???? Hello!!!!!

    I love Delia, but that was good.

    Left over wine, ha!

    I must admit that I (sad person that I am) have tried in the past to follow Delia's maxims.
    I have made mincemeat and Christmas cakes from scratch and I swear by quite a few of her recipes.

    Now I swear by M&S!
