Exclusive Interview with the Actors of Ice Age: A Collision Course
ICE AGE: COLLISION COURSE – IN THEATERS NOW Scrat’s epic pursuit of the elusive acorn catapults him into the universe where he accidentally sets off a series of cosmic events that transform and threaten the Ice Age World. To save themselves, Sid, Manny, Diego, and the rest of the herd must leave their home and embark on a quest full of comedy and adventure, traveling to exotic new lands and encountering a host of colorful new characters.

History of Ice Cream
Growing up our family would head to our local ice cream shop, Baskin-Robbins 31 Flavors, a couple times a month! I would switch it up between a banana split or a scoop (or two) of vanilla ice cream on a cone. For most people, ice cream brings back happy childhood memories! Today, July 17th, is National Ice Cream Day and I wanted to find out more about this delicious treat that so many of us enjoy! Food historians tell us the history of ice cream begins with ancient flavored ices. The Chinese are generally credited for creating the first ice creams, possibly as early as 3000 BC. Marco Polo…
