Marylander Starter Pack

[Anonymous]

What would you put into a "Welcome to Maryland" care package? I'm thinking food but also open to non food. From old bay to a Kennedy Center membership. Simple, silly, or extravagant. Coming from the north east.

Tell us more about the recipient, and we can marylandize their interests for ya

Where in Maryland? Anything old bay flavored, crab mallets, an ez pass transponder, ravens or orioles stuff, something with the crazy flag print on it

Op here, open to anything. Family of 4 from NYC, late ES age kids. Snacks would be ideal which is why I posted in food that so I'm not giving too much "stuff", but some stuff is fine just for fun.

You will need a Maryland flag crab-shaped bumper sticker at the very least.

Add a pack of Berger cookies too.

Tin of Old Bay, Orioles/Ravens shirts for the kids, Berger cookies, something with the MD flag on it, Zeke’s coffee, bottle of wine from a local vineyard or a six pack of something like Heavy Seas

I’ve been living in MD for the last 18 years, but I still find the MD flag extremely ugly. Is it sacrilege to be a Marylander and still find it a complete eyesore?

They make Old Bay vodka. Goes well in a bloody mary.

We did Maryland-themed goodie bags for guests staying in the hotel for our wedding. Here is what we included:

- Old Bay (duh!)
- Crab flavored potato chips (I think Utz brand, IIRC?)
- Utz potato chips
- Otterbein's Bakery chocolate chip cookies
- Recipe card for Smith Island cake

If they have elem kids I would get a science ctr membership, or Baltimore zoo membership. Assuming they’re not going to be living more than about 30 mins from Baltimore.

Tin of Old Bay, Berger cookies and crab chips are MUST HAVES!
Fishers popcorn (sold at many grocery stores now)
Gift card for a good ice cream shop (Sarah’s Handmade is our favorite)

Also love the idea of a smith island cake recipe.
