It’s National Kimberly Day<\/a>.<\/p>\n It’s National Sausage Pizza Day<\/a>. Aldo’s Pizza Pies would be a good place to celebrate, as would Ferraro’s or Slim & Husky’s.<\/p>\n It’s also Southern Food Heritage Day<\/a>. Alcenia’s restaurant on Main just north of I-40 would be my celebration recommendation.<\/p>\n Coffee shop Vice & Virtue has closed its stand at Tom Lee Park<\/a>, the CA’s Jennifer Chandler reports.
