Martha Stewart , Martha Stewart , Martha Stewart its Heloise that you need. Try Peanut Oil (or peanut butter) and get ready for a real mess because its going to become like paint, then use regular rubbing alcohol to get the peanut oil out. SERIOUS. You might want to try this on an old T shirt or something before you risk the shock.
