Just chiming in here on the crab discussion.
I’m in California and had been a King Crab purist. As a kid, I would go with my mother to the fish market on the pier and pick out the live crab that we would take home for dinner. Over the years, I tried dungenous crab, and snow crab—I had no use for them. Alaskan King Crab was the only thing for me.
Then... decades later, I had the opportunity to spend a bunch of time in Bethesda and tried Maryland crab. OH, MY! It was so delicious! Now, I would choose Maryland crab over King Crab any day of the week! Mmmm.... a plate of backfin lump crab meat... the image... the taste... YUM!
You HAVE to try it Chena!
The BEST crab in the world comes from the Chesapeake Bay, either in Virginia or Maryland. There’s nothing like spending an entire summer afternoon picking crab until your fingers are raw and you can’t eat any more.

...ah another happy diner lol. Man, I’m ready to crack some crabs people.
The Maryland Blues sound delectable. The next time we go to town I’ll see if I can find it up here. You’ve all got me droolin’ and it’s really messin’ up my blouse. LOL
