How about adding "Mrs. Beeton's Scrapbook" (or similar) to the library area? Mrs. Beeton being the author of the very first cookery book

On moving day, I found what I thought was an old book, high up on one of the shelves in a cupboard next to one of the fireplaces. Finally pulled it down and discovered this! It's full of old recipes!

What a find, don't tell the previous owners you've found grandma's cook book. They'll want it back. And it seems she got a new stove, on layaway for the grand sum of $37.
