Readers find maple cookies

That's the case with this week's maple-creme sandwich cookies, being sought by Lillian Blacketter. Fellow reader Suzanne Atfield found them at the Entenmann's/Oroweat bakery outlets, which are at 2548 Wigwam Parkway in Henderson and 5191 W. Charleston Blvd., and William Isaac found the Dare brand from Canada at Albertsons, displayed among the specialty crackers. ...
