Supreme Blueberry Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce

For some reason, there are certain to me that are quintessential New England. Sort of like those things you have to do or have when you're up here. For example, when in New Hampshire, go to the white mountains. When in Vermont, go see Ben and Jerry's.
Well, when in Maine, I always always have to have blueberry pancakes. I'm so not a pancake person; give me waffles or an omelet or a bagel anyday. But put me in Maine, and bam. I want need blueberry pancakes. So what's a girl to do? Ummm find a bomb recipe and make it herself.
