Post a funny picture. Post a not so funny picture.
Post whatever weirdness you want. That’s it.
Make sure you leave a link to your post and I’ll visit your Happy Tuesday post.
Being happy is a good thing.
The Martha Stewart way or Maxine’s way:
Martha’s way: Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of an ice cream cone to prevent ice cream drips.
Maxine’s way: Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for Pete’s sake! You’re probably lying on the couch with your feet up eating it anyway.
Martha’s way: To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.
Maxine’s way: Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix. Keeps in the pantry for up to a year.
Martha’s way: 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’s way: Go to the bakery! 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’.
Maxine’s way: If you over-salt a dish while you’re cooking, that’s to 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!’

I’m no Martha Stewart. I’m Maxine all the way…lol
I’m with you, Ann. I’m proud of it too. 🙂
Love Maxine! She’s a hoot☺
Yes she is. My kind of gal. 🙂
In my kitchen, neither Martha nor Maxine hold any sway; here’s it’s my way: Any culinary barbarity that occurs is cured with a phone call to a pizza delivery place. Both pet rocks highly endorse this.
That works too, Mike. I know the pet rocks love take out. They did when they were here too. 🙂
BOL! We love this! This is so funny and so completely true with the polar opposites. We love the Maxine humor and we love Martha’s talent. Happy Tuesday!
Yes on both counts. I’m still more Maxine and I’m okay with that. 🙂
Lol! Being happy IS a good thing! Happy Tuesday!
Yes it is and I strive for happy every single day. 🙂
That’s actually a good tip for the over salting, but I think I’d prefer the company of Maxine. 🙂
It is indeed and it makes sense. Now to have a potato on hand when you need one. 🙂
Maxine is a very wise lady!
She is too and she doesn’t care if we like her or not. 🙂
MOL MOL MOL
This sums up whether I’m Maxine or Martha
‘I made it, you will eat it and I don’t care how bad it tastes!’ As a rule I always order ice cream in a cup….BUT when I was a child a Nutty Butty was a favorite I loved that dark cone and I always bit off the bottom of the cone to suck the ice cream.
Thank you for the giggles
Hugs Cecilia
We all have our ways. It’s a good thing. I can’t see me ever putting a marshmallow in the bottom of my cone. Hugs back. 🙂
Maxine sounds so like me! Lol! People who are like Maxine will drive people who are like Martha crazy. Lol!
I knew I liked you for more than all the good food you post. You’re like Maxine. That’s awesome. 🙂
I am maxine all the way except the last one about salt.. i don’t eat what i don’t like and never made my kids eat it either. I love Maxine
I hear you on not eating what you don’t like. I didn’t make the kids eat it either. Less stress at mealtimes. I love Maxine too. 🙂
Sandee,
I had to laugh over these. I’d like to be like Martha but in reality I’m more like Maxine. lol Thanks for the giggles. Happy Groundhog Day!!
I hear you as I’m more like Maxine too. Happy Groundhog day to you too. 🙂
Definitely Maxine’s way. 🙂 Thanks for hosting. Have a great day! XO
Yes. I think most of us do things Maxine’s way. You have a great day too. 🙂
HaHaHa! THese are terrific! WHen Rebekah cooks dinner she is the Hungry Jack Mashed Potatoes Queen! HaHaha, my hubby is the stick of butter in a potatoes of taters. LOL! I love half cream, half butter and half cream cheese. No calories right? You always make my day. I am grateful and thankful and happy for you. Have a beautiful day.
When we do have mashed potatoes we peel and do them that way. Lots of butter and a little milk for us. Creamy and good. I’ve had them your way too. A bit rich for me but ever so good. 🙂
When you’ve burnt dinner:
Martha’s way. Feed it to the dog and start over.
Maxine’s way- Open and consume another bottle of wine and you won’t notice.
There is that and sometimes it’s so bad the dog won’t eat it. I’ll have another glass of wine please. 🙂
Martha tells us how to do it, and Maxine tells us how we do it, and there’s the difference. Happy Tuesday!
Yes, exactly. Happy Tuesday, my friend. 🙂
These are great! Maxine’s way works for me. Happy Tuesday!
Her way works for me too. Far more fun. 🙂
Hee hee…Maxine is funny and so pragmatic!
Yes she is and she doesn’t fool around about things. 🙂
Goes to show, there are different ways to look at things!
There sure are different ways to look at things. 🙂
So much fun and a learned a few tricks too! 🙂 Wishing you a terrific Tuesday, Sandee! xo
You can always learn from Martha and Maxine. Just two different ways of doing things. 🙂
I think I’m somewhere in between! Although I do have do admit, I’m getting more and more like Maxine!
I love Maxine. She’s so snarky and I can be that way too. 🙂
My momma was way ahead of Maxine years ago. This is so funny!
Good for her. Maxine rocks. 🙂
I’m not too Happy about the Groundhogs prediction but I am Happy for my Nippy Ball
Me either, but we’ll survive. It’s better than it still being the end of November. 🙂
We just want the snow to go go go away!
Bwa! Haa!! Haaa!!! You made Mom laugh out loud and snort! Yep! The coffee came out her nose! Mom is way more Maxine than Martha and that’s the way we like it! Thanks for the wonderful laughs and visiting us and hosting this terrific hop! Have a marvellously Day!
I hate it when liquids come out my nose. It means something was really funny. You have a marvellously day too. 🙂
I’m most certainly a Maxine way more! How fun.
Me too, Alissa. It’s a good thing. 🙂
Well sometimes I am Martha- and sometimes Maxine! Depends on my mood and time to do stuff! Have a very Happy Tuesday! xoxo
You’re more Martha than Maxine. You’re a whiz in the kitchen. Happy Tuesday to you too and thanks for sending these to me. 🙂
Funny and informative! 🙂 I’ve heard the potato trick but the others are new to me. Thanks for sharing. ~hugs~
I didn’t know any of them and I doubt I’d do any of the Martha stuff. I’m more of a Maxine. 🙂
Happy Tuesday!! These are just all so wonderful and perfect to read as we are getting hit with this snowstorm for the past couple of days. Thanks for sharing. Have a fantastic rest of your week.
It’s raining and cold here. I’m ready for spring. 🙂
Well,Martha does have some good ideas, but Maxine makes us laugh. Guess we need to take a little from each:)
Woos – Lightning, Misty, and Timber
Yes that’s the ticket. Scritches to the precious pups. 🙂
I would love to have some of the answers that Martha has but my philosophy seems to be more like Maxine’s. Of course, I would feel more relaxed with Maxine than Martha.
Jean
I’m a Maxine too. Oh love Maxine. 🙂
Go Maxine. LOL.
I agree, Patrick. I love Maxine. 🙂
Dang, you really can learn a lot both from Martha and Maxine! Love it.
Yes you can. Happy day. 🙂
