Whose way is correct, "Martha's way" or "My way"?

Martha's Way: Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips.
My Way: Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for Pete's sake. You are probably lying on the couch with your feet up anyway.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Martha's Way: To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.
My Way: Buy Instant Mashed Potatoes. They'll keep it in the pantry for well over a year.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Martha's Way: Spray your Tupperware with nonstick cooking spray before pouring in tomato based sauces and there won't be any stains.
My Way: Feed your garbage disposal and there won't be any leftovers.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.
My Way: Go to the bakery. They'll even decorate it for you.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Martha's Way: If you accidentally over-salt a dish, drop in a peeled potato and it will absorb the excess salt.
My Way: If you over-salt a dish that's too bad. My motto is: I made it, you will eat it, I don't care how bad it tastes!


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Martha's Way: To determine whether an egg is fresh, immerse it in a pan of cool salted water. If it sinks, it's fresh, but if it rises to the surface, throw it away.
My Way: Eat, cook or use the egg. If you feel bad later, you will know it wasn't fresh.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Martha's Way: To cure a headache, take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.
My Way: Martha, dear, the only reason this works is because you can't rub a lime on your forehead without getting lime juice in your eye and then the problem isn't the headache anymore -- it's that you are now blind.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Martha's Way: Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze it into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.
My Way: What leftover wine?
