This was the absolute perfect gift for me! I'm an American living in London for the year. I love to cook, and I've tried my hand at a few British classics. I've often talked about how I think it's so interesting that so much of British cuisine seems to be based on the brief period of rationing. Anyway, this is a cookbook comprised of the instruction leaflets handed out during rationing! I can't wait to try these out! Thank you so much to my Secret Santa! And the shirt was an awesome bonus, and it fits perfect!
