4 Great Ice Cream Places To Visit On Long Island
Square Space

Long Island is beautiful in the springtime, and there are many things to do. There are beaches to go to, and nature trails to hike. But one thing most people love to do in the warmer months is eating ice cream, frozen yogurt, or gelato - whatever floats your boat really. Here are 4 popular places to get your fix.

1. Marvel Frozen Dairy - Lido Beach

This place has THE BEST pistachio-strawberry twist soft serve. All of their soft-serve is great. And it's proximity to the beach means you can grab a cone and then go walk on the boardwalk.

2. Golden Reef Diner - Rockville Center

This diner is number 24 on Buzzfeed's list titled "27 Ice Cream Shops You Need to Visit Before You Die" for their authentic gelato. And trust me, it is worth the hype. The actual food at the diner is good, it's worth the trip. But the gelato is the icing on the cake. If you ask your waiter/waitress nicely, they can give you samples :)

3. International Delight Cafe - Rockville Center

Honestly, all the desserts at this place are great. But the best is putting ice cream on Belgian waffles.


4. Ralph's Italian Ices - Various Locations

This list wouldn't be complete without the cult-classic Ralph's. I mean, do I even have to say anything other than Ralph's Italian Ices?

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human Creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
