On today’s edition of “The Martha Stewart Show” (nationally syndicated, check local listings), the hilarious Joan Rivers joined daytime host Martha Stewart in-studio to make personalized tea towels and prepare a simple pasta dish.
Joan decided to personalize her tea towels with the letters B and M for her good friend, Bette Midler. When the project was complete, Martha commented, “Bette will love that.” Joan jokingly added, “As long as we don’t put it in her bathroom.”
Later in the kitchen, while preparing ‘no knife pasta,’ a recipe Martha proudly coined, Joan commented, “So they can put the knives where they belong – in a plastic surgeon’s office.”
Martha and Joan on Wee Wee Pads for dogs:
JR: How many stupid Wee Wee pads have you put down in your life?
MS: Never…I’ve never bought a Wee Wee pad. I get up in the middle of the night and take my dogs out when they have to go.
JR: I’m sending you my next dog.
Martha on Joan’s personal taste:
MS: You have very good taste…You know, I’ve been to Joan’s apartment, it’s gorgeous.
JR: I live the way Marie Antoinette would have lived if she had money.
Joan Rivers on Martha:
Joan Rivers: I love to make her laugh because she is so smart. When Martha laughs, you go, ‘That was a good one.’
Joan on her favorite household duties:
JR: I love immediate gratification. I love ironing and I love washing dishes…I’m a great guest – I will wash dishes.
Martha and Joan on ‘no knife pasta’:
MS: I was making this pasta one day and I was thinking, ‘What can I call this?”…You can just tear everything [the ingredients] up, so I called it ‘no knife pasta.’
JR: That’s great.
MS: Don’t you like that?
JR: So they can put the knives where they belong – in a plastic surgeon’s office.
MS: Do you mind using your nails to tear tomatoes.
JR: Tear?
MS: Yes, tear the tomatoes into the bowl.
JR: [Pointing at her jacket] This is a Valentino.
