The list is fine, but I wear Christian Dior make up, however, for the good of my country I'll switch to something....
This will require a major discussion with Carolyn on eght!
What care I if I'm a mess?

Rationing started in 1942--food, shoes, gas, meat, butter, sugar, and canned goods. Coupons were guarded as closely as cash. Each week an announcement was made as to how many points could be used. Extra sugar coupons could be requested at canning time. Jars of unrationed baby fruit, meant for babies only, found their way into lunch boxes as dessert. Silk stockings no longer available became treasures. Nylons, just becoming available were hard to obtain, requiring long waits in line, as nylon was diverted to war effort. Meeting the challenge, women used leg makeup to give the illusion of hose, right down to seams drawn with an eyebrow pencil. |
