Today, Miss Betty, The Ghost Storyteller, and I discovered a cozy lunch spot in Fairfield, PA about 8 miles from the inn. The walls of Village Book and Table Restaurant are decorated with framed pages from the Dick and Jane readers (nostalgia for some of you, and ancient history for the rest. There was a time when everyone learned to read from these books.) The original soda bar and stools are still there. The details are pure 1954. This is the kind of place that you want to go to when you want to hang out with a book, nibble on freshly made sandwiches, sip fresh-brewed iced tea, and just unwind. The two of us shared a fried oyster sandwiches and a crab cake sandwiches. Both were excellent, as was their homemade cole slaw and deep fried ochra. This hangout wasn't busy at the lunch hour, but it should have been. Stop in and unwind.
