Several of you have sent e-mails requesting the recipe for chicken and rosemary and garlic, which I wrote about in the current issue’s editor’s letter. I admit, I never wrote the thing down, but this is from my best recollection:
Like most everyone else, I’ve anxiously followed the developing plans for Annapolis’ Market House. I can’t wait for something—anything!—to open in the nearly vacant space. I’m supportive of Lehr Jackson’s plan and think his Gone to Market concept has generally succeeded in the past. (Albeit, | Email to a friend |

Have you seen those ads for ESPN3 featuring those funny-talkin’, downhome folks of Tangier Island, the “Biggest Sports Town in America*” (*per capita)? If not, check them out here. Gotta say, they’re well done and make Tangier look pretty good.
If you’d like to meet Tangier Island’s mayor, James “Ooker” Eskridge, who is featured prominently in…

Say it ain’t so, Barry! I’m talking to you, Mr. Levinson. You finally decide to make a movie set on the Chesapeake Bay, and you end up filming it in the Carolinas! Argh!

I made a classic Maryland recipe over the weekend: turtle soup. What possessed me to do such a thing? Actually, it was all in the name of duty. Our Traveling Gourmet, Mary Zajac, is writing an article for our sister publication, Style Magazine, on old Maryland recipes. She whipped up some crab…

This weekend is a big one in the history of Tangier Island. On August 29, the island’s new $1.4 million health clinic will be dedicated. It’s a long time coming for the people of this isolated Bay island, a story Kessler Burnett so eloquently told in our December 2006 issue.
Here at Cup o’ Joe, we’re always looking for a good deal. With that in mind, I stopped by The Backburner, a cozy little consignment shop in Eastport, to check out the offerings.

I happened to be strolling Annapolis Towne Centre a few weeks ago when I heard that the proposed anti-terrorism training center in Queen Anne’s County had been nixed. Apparently, the feds got ahead of themselves in thinking that residents were willing to trade bucolic peace for helicopters, machine gun fire,…

I had breakfast last week with former Republican congressman Wayne Gilchrest at The Village Bakery in Chestertown. (He had two eggs over light with rye toast and a side of home fries, if you must know.) In a wide-ranging—and extremely candid—interview that will appear in our fall issue, Gilchrest talked about everything from getting shot in Vietnam to…
