Maria Scinto’s Biography

Read Full Bio →

In addition to writing, I also host (and produce) my own podcast, Quirky Cookbooks.

I currently write for two websites (Mashed and The List), and am happy to branch out and take on additional writing assignments, but I don't market what I've written.

I'm actually not looking for pitches unless you already have a venue for publishing the article you want to have written.

Brace yourself: Back to school season is upon us. Whether that phrase fills you with joy or dread, you know you've got some prep work to do. There are school supplies to buy, wardrobe essentials to arrange, and most importantly lunches to pack. (The ones served in school cafeterias may be getting better, but they're still not great.) This means that a trip to Costco is probably in the cards, as long as the card you're holding is a membership one.

We love ice cream in all its many forms, whether it comes in a bowl, cup, cone, sundae, or shake. And ice cream bars have a special place in our chilly little hearts because each one always seems to have a little something extra. This may be a chocolatey coating, festive sprinkles, or a cute shape, but there's never any doubt that ice cream bars were built for fun.
