Handy hints 5: Rationing

As many of you will have noticed, there has been a tendency to use war metaphors in relation to COVID and our battle with it.

This approach has recently infected (BOOMBOOM!) TLF Towers. Mr TLF has introduced rationing.

Not for food items or indeed nylons, but mugs. Apparently TLF has been somewhat cavalier in her use of the ceramic receptacle now she is permanently working from home. I confess there has been a tendency to adopt a mug for normal tea (builders strength, a gallon a day), followed by a mug for fancy teas (green, mint etc a couple max) and then a coffee specific mug (one per day to avoid migraines). This laissez-faire attitude to creating washing up has led to Mr TLF finding his inner Churchill, fighting the pandemic on the beaches, in our kitchens and with our ceramics.

As a result TLF is following a strict one mug a day regime, with signage on the mug cupboard door to ensure compliance.

I often ask myself the same thing…..
