This buttery concoction from our friends at Kooper’s was delicious!

Maryland Lottery holiday scratchoff

Holidays. Celebrate. Win!

Baltimore Positive

While Nestor wanted to lean in on Maryland Lottery Executive Director John Martin just a tad during Cleveland Week (Guardians exit and Browns fall), this one also included a mutual Fernando Valenzuela tribute and a chance to roll out the big holiday scratch-offs and promotions that have skipped right past the pumpkin pie and into the peppermint season. And someone sitting on a $1 million ticket that is unclaimed.

Day 4 of The Maryland Oyster Tour took Nestor to Hampden and the absolutely divine oyster fritter and eggs Benedict at The Urban Oyster on The Avenue for Sunday brunch. This might’ve been the best thing we tasted on the tour!
