| Martha StewartPosted By: jss on 2008-07-25In Reply to: What's your favorite TV show? - jss
 
 Another favorite of mine but I never get to watch or record her anymore because she is on the same time as my Y&R and...well...that out ranks Martha.  I used to watch Martha so much my mom started calling me Martha and my hubs Stewart.  LOL

 Today I would like to see Martha Stewart
 wtih cleaning supplies in hand.  After that, John Cusack.  Still crazy for him after all these years.  Most romatic scene ever in a movie....Holding the boombox over his head in "Say Anything"
 Martha Stewart's recipe
 I'm sure you can look it up on her website.  I have her cookbook and have been using her recipe for years!  It's not fool proof, as I have found that fresh eggs don't peel as well but do peel a little better if I use her method and I NEVER get that green ring or the dot of slimy uncooked egg when I use her recipe.  It's very simple too.  I wish I knew it exactly from memory but I don't - the closest that I can come is this (though if you want to try it I would pull her recipe and not use mine from memory lol)
 
 Start eggs in cold water.  Put on the stove.  Bring to a boil.  Heavily salt the water (1-2 tablespoons for a normal sized 1 quart sauce pan).  Cook 7 minutes.  Turn heat off and let stand for 5 minutes.  Place into ice water.  Peel under running water.  Then you can store them peeled with wet paper towel in a zip top baggie or platic tightly covered dish for a few days if needed.
 I'm 30 and have the nickname of Martha Stewart
 if that tells you anything.  Yes, I am a minority among people my age but I am also more mature and at a different place in life than most of the people I know at my age.  Married, kids, etc.  I love to sew, when I have time.  I cook from scratch.  I make my child's halloween costume.  Now expecting a baby and making my own burp clothes, fitted sheets, receiving blankets, and cloth wipes.  It's a small part of society but there are still some of us out there!  :)  I learned these skills mainly from other women in my life during childhood but also in girl scouts.  home ec was a very small piece of it for me.
 Epicurious.com, Rachel Ray, Martha Stewart, etc. sm
 Google away, I will look up some recipes but sometimes the latest are good also and "tested," I have tried some oldies which did not turn out well, be sure they are "tested" first. Get back to you if I can find some I pre-tested. Good idea, love home baked or home made items, shows you care!
 I saw this on Martha Stewart....you pour salt into a paper bag
 put the flower head first into the bag upside down, twist the top sorta so salt doesnt fall out and shake it around like shake-n-bake.  it breaks up the dust and knocks it off..never have tried it myself though..but sounds like it might work..martha stewart style.
 Martha Stewart did it on her show a couple years ago.
 I wrote the directions down and never got to them.  I remember you soak them and dry them  and then sand them lots - I think acrylic paint and glaze.  There are lots of local craft shows where I live and there are a couple gals that do them - bird houses, bowls, one does the neatest bright red apple ones.  Just looks so neat and think it would be fun.  SO - you might try doing a Google on Martha Stewart/gourds or something like that.  Good luck.
 I'll have to check that out. I love the Martha Stewart
 crafts. Thanks for all the help.
 I use Mrs. Stewart's bluing. . sm
 It is the same stuff that some older women put on their gray hair and sometimes if they use too much, it comes out blue. I have a well also with a lot of sulfur and iron, so I use bleach. (I also use about a tablespoon of bleach with my towels because nothing else will get the odor out. I even tried vinegar.) I think when you use bleach on whites, it takes something out of the fabric and causes it to become gray or yellow. The bluing puts it back into the fabric. I buy it by the fabric softener at my grocery store. I think I paid $3 for it and it will last a long time. Hope that helps!
 In this case I think Martha is wrong -
 and it drives me crazy!!
 Tom Hanks, and we'd watch Jimmy Stewart movies together.
