Hi. Just waned to say that I love your blog, it is really interesting. I am considering taking on the clothing ration myself; and was researching just that when I stumbled upon you.
Tea: I purchased some of it, and traded for some of it. I participated in an online community called Steepster where other tea fanatics and I reviewed what we were drinking. It was a great way for me to find out more about tea and figure out the types I love, but now that I have a pretty good idea of my tastes I can calm down, enjoy what I have, and only purchase when I run out of something. 🙂
I just stumbled across your blog and I am fascinated! I have always had an interest in life in Britain during wartime. Do you have a post that explains how the challenge works?
Hello Jennifer! Here is the most recent rationing scheme I’ve been using (be sure to switch make and buy – I made a mistake but didn’t want to waste paper redoing it 🙂

How did you end up with so much tea?!

Any questions, just ask! I’m going to ration in 2016 so there will be additional twists and turns!
