When I bake, cook, garden or craft - I often think if Martha would be down with what I was doing? Trying to channel her ingenuity into my own domestic life, I have created the Stewart Score.
Based on three key principles and ranked out of two, this simple scoring system is as follows:
The STEWART SCORE:
Appearance: 1 2
Taste: 1 2
Ease: 1 2
1= Not Worthy
2 = Its a Good Thing
