Q: During the pre-Christmas season, Costco had delicate, delicious French butter cookies made by Le Chef Patissier called La Grande Galette. I would love to buy and enjoy them year round, but have not been able to locate these. I emailed the company but received no response. Thank you for your response. Mary B. Stack, Atlanta
A: Mary, I found a familiar outlet for your traditional French butter cookies made with sea salt, but I hope you really love them because you'll have to buy six of the pretty white tins. Although they're not currently stocked in Costco stores, the cookies are available through www.costco.com. You can order a six-pack of the cookies for $74.99 — each tin weighs 1.3 pounds. The cookies are separated in plastic-wrapped bundles of three inside the tins, so they should stay fresh for a while.
Q: My mother insists on using Arrid Extra Dry cream deodorant. Her drugstore seems to have stopped stocking it, and she doesn’t drive much these days. Is there a place where I could find this in the Doraville area? Thank you. B. Robertson, email
A: I found the little 1-ounce containers of Arrid Extra Dry cream antiperspirant and deodorant for $2.39 each at Buford Highway Farmers Market, 5600 Buford Hwy., Atlanta, 770-455-0770.
Q: I have been drinking Glaceau Vitaminwater Zero Revive fruit punch for years. As of late, I can’t find it anywhere. Can you help me find it? Or is it gone? Thank you. Linda Berger, Smyrna
A: Linda, Glaceau Vitaminwater Zero Revive fruit punch flavor is still available, and you can find it at CVS Pharmacy, 2994 Atlanta Road SE, Smyrna, 770-435-2178. Four bottles will cost you $5.
Q: I always look forward to your section in the Sunday paper. I’m hoping that you can assist me in finding a critical ingredient for my Caesar salad dressing that I can no longer find. Lea & Perrins used to have a white wine Worcestershire that they later labeled as a chicken marinade. Our local Publix was the only store that stocked it, but no longer. Your assistance in finding this key ingredient, or a suitable substitute, is most appreciated. Ingrid Joyce, Newnan
A: Thank you for reading, Ingrid. Don't worry, your Caesar dressing won't have to go without its key ingredient. You'll find Lea & Perrins Marinade for Chicken at Publix, 370 Bullsboro Drive, Newnan, 770-502-0693. The marinade, once called White Wine Worcestershire sauce, is flavored with white wine, garlic, herbs and spices.
