Dear Sun Spots: Some time ago someone inquired about a book “Brother Andre, The Wonder Man of Mount Royal.” I have the book but mislaid the person’s phone number. She can have the book if she’ll call me at (207) 786-7711.
Also, for the person asking about tinfoil that fits around piecrusts, I find mine at Wal-Mart but Hannaford also has them. They are called Pie Saver Baking Shields. It works great. – No Name, No Town.
Answer: What a great memory No Name, No Town has. This item appeared in the Oct. 8, 2003 column! Sun Spots spoke with Joan M., No Town, who says she’ll be happy to call you about this book.
