The state's outline looks like a handgun. Crab gets my vote.

Life is "mind over matter". If I d

I like the crab too (from the 3 choices). I would not mind seeing a Black-Eyed Susan
bloom near the crab as well. Just for color.. Gita

The crab with flower does it for me--totally Maryland!

I agree. State's flower and food specialty are a winning combo.

I like the way the crab is leaning towards the flower as though to sniff it!

Robin, it's not trying to sniff it. The crab is offering it to you.

In reality, the only way I could get them both in the space was to turn the crab.
