A really interesting book from 1913 called "Dishes and Beverages of the Old South" which contains a lot of information about entertaining in addition to cooking, and lots of descriptions of very peculiar old heirloom crops that were common back then - ever heard of an Indian blood peach? A Cabbage collard? They've both got really interesting stories behind them.

Vegetables. A lot of people underestimate fall veggies. We're using acorn squash, butternut squash, tons of mushrooms, kale, broccolini. There's a lot you can do with fall veg.
