Sunnyside
Growing up, we had some wonderful family friends with a charming old house on the eastern shore, just a little bit outside Secretary, Maryland. I have such great memories of spending weekends there—walking to the country store for some Apple Jacks and having a blast on the secret staircase that connected the upstairs bedrooms to the kitchen.
But the best part of those weekends at Sunnyside was when I learned how to tie a chicken neck to a long stick and catch blue crabs right off the dock! We’d steam those crabs ourselves, and I'll always remember the time one of them jumped out of the pot and chased our family dog all over the yard! Such fun times!
