It's National Seafood Month, and hands down, Maryland has the best seafood in the country. To celebrate the occasion, Secretary Atticks joined me in the kitchen to cook up some freshly caught blue catfish. Protecting our bay and growing our economy has never tasted so good.

Your aquaculture operation counts! If you own a farm and have not yet been counted, you can sign up now for the USDA 2022 agriculture census: bit.ly/37gc3D1 All types of operations of all sizes are counted in the census every five years ! #USDA #farm #census

I feel like one thing we're not talking about is how fucking overstimulating it is to be around our kids all day all night every day and night. For those of us who NEED alone time to recharge, this is particularly excruciating.
