A small town recipe for a big city. This is not a cooking blog, but it is about food, the food business and cook books. An addiction to the smell of aging paper has led to a collection of over 500 old cook books.

Some Like It Hot Sandwich: Grilled Pimento Cheese With Toasted Pecans, Candied Jalapenos and Bacon on Sourdough, Side of Strawberry Jam.
I confess I've never had pimento cheese in the 25 years I've lived in the South. Yum, or not? You can buy this sandwich here at their new location at Preston and Forest. They also have some very interesting salad choices for their salad sampler - definitely 1960's influenced: Nana's Strawberry Pretzel Congealed Salad (may I recommend a name change to "Gelatin"?), a huge square of pink froth on a pretzel crust; Broccoli-Raisin Salad; and Pink Arctic Freeze, which I was told was a frozen "salad" containing cranberries.
