Crab season in our home state of Maryland runs from April to December. Prime crab feasting time is usually in the summer so you can get together with friends and family and enjoy a bushel outside. As the weather begins to change, you may not have too many more opportunities to feast on these wondrous crustaceans, but Salisbury's pewter crabs will last all year long! Keep them around the house as a memento of your favorite season and favorite delicacy!

A christening or baptism is such a special and touching moment in a baby, and the parents life. There are many gifts that are customary and traditional for this type of occasion. But over the years, more modern gifts have been adopted to encompass different faiths and family backgrounds. We put together a list of gifts that encompass a wonderful balance of both modern and tradition. All are time honored keepsakes that will honor the special day in this baby’s life.

David Tutera's Rules for Pets in Weddings
One wedding trend I’m seeing more and more: A couple’s furry friend taking part in the ceremony.

One of these featured a pair of pugs dressed in a bridal gown and tuxedo, respectively. Adorable! Other weddings had the pups serve as ring bearers, strutting down the aisle with satchels in their mouths containing the wedding ...
