Ration Book Edition of the 219th Festival
Miss Thrifty plays hosts the 219th Festival of Frugality from across the pond and took a distinctly British theme – the Ministry of Food Ration Book edition. “if there is a physical object that represents the possibilities – and the limitations! – of a frugal lifestyle, then surely this is it.” It starts with a proper bit of history and goes right into the Editor’s Picks.
