Recently there has been talk in the news about what dessert best represents the State of Maine. The whoopie pie and the blueberry pie are the only contestants. I vote for the blueberry pie. Maine is known for its blueberries. For me, summer isn't summer without picking gallons of blueberries. When my children were young, I uses to freeze 40 quarts of them every summer.  I have made a lot of pies and muffins and pancakes! As for the whoopie pie, most of them are made with industrial filling. I have no desire to eat them. However, I do have a homemade version I may include here someday.
