Smith Island cake wins over Senate

March 18, 2008

Smith Island layer cake got a sweet deal from the Maryland Senate on Monday; the body voted 44-1 to make the Eastern Shore’s creation our official state dessert.

The only senator to vote against the cake was Republican Sen. Alex Mooney, who told the AP he voted in jest because his county, Frederick, grows apples and he prefers the fruit pie.

Now, on to the House…
