A bit about me

My name is Maggie Canty, and I am a junior journalism major with a news editorial concentration at Colorado State University. Currently, I am a reporter for The Rocky Mountain Collegian, CSU's newspaper, and College Avenue, CSU's magazine. I also have experience writing a performing arts column for The Canyon Courier, a local paper in Conifer, CO.

Check out some of my clips at The Collegian's Web site.

I am originally from Evergreen, Colorado, and graduated from Conifer High School in 2005. I work at Everyday Joe's Coffee House and Beau Jo's Pizza in Old Town Fort Collins. I enjoy running (mostly 5ks), baking, snowboarding, the outdoors, good music, writing, ice cream and being with people.

Picking a topic to blog about was easy for me. Having been born with an insatiable sweet tooth, ice cream has always been one of my favorite foods, and quite honestly, a big part of my life. I am a firm believer that it can and should be enjoyed at any time of day, in any kind of weather, for any occasion.

With this blog, I will attempt to share a bit of ice cream facts, tips and tricks, and share a few different ways to fill your bowl without emptying your wallet.
