I always try to verify they’re made of Chesapeake Bay blues, or a reasonable facsimile thereof. I also usually indulge in steamed shrimp BURIED in Old Bay. And I mean you have to scrape the Old Bay paste off to find the shrimp inside. Now there’s a Christmas tradition going back a long time.

I know people like to beat on Maryland because of the stranglehold the DemocRATS have on our political landscape -thanks to their gerrymandering — but I love living in my native Maryland. Cannot imagine living anywhere else, hon.
I was born and raised out west in the Panhandle - the part we call ‘Almost Maryland’. Hill country. Be up there in a couple weeks for a brief, late holiday family visit. I’m down in ‘Bama now, but lived in MoCo and NoVa for fifteen years before relocating. Had family up in Ballmer and visited them frequently. If it weren’t for the liberals and a second marriage, I probably never would have left.
I hope your visit here is wonderful. Safe travels.
