Q: I used to wear Jovan Ginseng N.R.G men’s cologne many years ago. It was one of my wife’s favorite but as the years went by, I tried others and nearly forgot about this one. I’m not sure if it’s still around. If so, could you tell me where I might buy a bottle? Thank you. Al Jacob, Atlanta
A: This light and crisp scent is still around and you can always find it at Wal-Mart, 4725 Ashford Dunwoody Road, Atlanta, 770-395-0199. The 1-ounce cologne spray sells for $9.98. You’ll find it in the fragrance section, but it sits behind a locked glass case.
Q: Where can I get one of those non-stick washable mats that you place on a cookie sheet? The specific one I’m looking for already has outlines of cookies so that you can get even placement. Rachel Warren, email
A: Silpat Perfect Cookie Baking Mat comes printed with a baker’s dozen cookie outlines. You can find it at Sur la Table, Phipps Plaza, 404-973-3371. The silicone mat measures 16.5 inches by 11.63 inches and sells for
$26.95. These handy baking mats make clean up a snap, and they roll up for easy storage.
Q: I don’t remember where I saw this but it’s a Thermos shaped like a shotgun shell. My grandson is a hunter and I think he would get a kick out of this for his birthday. Your help is appreciated. E. Kirkland, Atlanta
A: Stansport Thermo offers a 25-ounce insulated bottle that sounds like what you're looking for — a giant shotgun shell. The Shotshell bottle is designed with BPA-free, double-walled stainless steel. It's available through Sports Authority, but only online at www.sportsauthority.com or by calling 888-801-9164. Shotshell sells for $34.99.
Q: Where can I buy Moore’s Original marinade? I hope it hasn’t been discontinued because I’m not seeing it around lately. Mike Martinez, email
