Bringfido.com seems to have a few pet-friendly hotels in Edmundston, NB, as well as VRBO and Air BnB in Ft Kent.

It’s not just the degree, it’s you. If you coast after school you’ll meander around. If you have drive and focus you’ll go farther. Don’t let the best degree you can afford define you.

Happened to me a couple days ago. Politely declined to converse. I didn’t realize it was a scam, but I had a similar query on another subreddit last week.

Get Lodge brand at Renys, Walmart or even Amazon Warehouse. Once cured it will be great for years. My 5quart Double Dutch oven with a fryer pan lid I paid $30 for ten years ago and it’s still going strong. Currently on sale on Amazon for $60 new/$41 used.

Maybe “The Hogfather” because it’s the holidays. Besides that, “Guards! Guards!”

Try the ones you see at smaller venues (craft fairs and holiday fairs). Some of the cottage industry booths have really good ones. My favorites are made by “Forever Whoopies” I found at a couple craft fairs and the Whoopie Pie Festival.

You in fact do want to argue because you started the argument. So, let’s correct your comments:
-
Google says, “Labadie's Bakery in Lewiston, Maine has been making the confection since 1925.” No mention made that is was the first commercially sold whoopie pie. Google also goes on to write, “The now-defunct Berwick Cake Company of Roxbury, Massachusetts was selling "Whoopee Pies" as early as the 1920s, but officially branded the Whoopee Pie in 1928 to great success.” So, some controversy there.
-
Road side stands, and craft fairs, do qualify as commercial business last I checked. Because the IRS checks. More that $600 sales and you get a 1099. That makes it a commercial sale as far as the government is concerned. But more generally when you make a product and you get money for it, it’s a commercial sale.

Again, no. Several places claim to have started selling them around the same time as Labadies did in Lewiston. The Amish claim to have been selling them in road side stands since the 1890s. You go to the larger communities of Lancaster, PA, as well as the smaller ones around Johnstown, PA and they’ll fill you in on the history.
That being said, there are lots of good whoopie pies in Maine. Certainly the best I’ve ever had outside of Amish-made ones, but that is of course a personal preference.

There were about a dozen of them over time and different markets. This one I remember from my time in San Antonio:

Sorry, no. The Amish communities of Pennsylvania made them first. Similar confections can be traced back to medieval Germany.

Not really a Maine thing. More of an Amish thing, I thought. All the Amish markets here in Maryland have them. Although the best whoopie pie I ever had I bought at a Maine craft fair from a company called “Forever Whoopies”. They also had gluten-free ones for the same price as regular.

Check out “Good Maine Food” by Marjorie Mosser. It was published in 1947, but has lots of classic “old timey “ recipes from the 1800s. Believe it or not, it is still available as a paperback and can be found on Amazon (but please buy it from a local bookstore).

Eat them like bread during a meal. My grandmother liked to spread mustard or creton (pork spread sort of like head cheese…Hannafords sells it in the deli).

My sister has the same problems with her dogs being coaxed out into the woods by a single coyote to be jumped by the pack. She keeps them on a leash now after being warned.
Makes sense re: the hare population. More food, more pups.
