Baugh's Porch Party Extravaganza!

As always, Chef Michael Baugh throws a successful and extra-special porch party with a buffet of catered food, an open bar and of course the signature live band music. That's definitely always a party. Here are some pics taken by Deb Camfferman from the shindig last Saturday evening.

To those who weren't able to attend the Booker Creek opening ceremony, here's a video courtesy of the City's WSPF broadcast.

Roser Talk: What Do YOU Think?

With all this talk going around regarding the proposed downtown Tampa Bay Rays stadium, we thought it would be good to hear what you think especially since Roser Park is one of a few neighborhoods close and within walking distance to downtown St. Pete. Some people are for it and some are completely against it.


Maybe some of you can share with us your thoughts on why or why not the stadium should be built downtown to give us some perspective. It is something that will definitely be affecting Roser Park directly or indirectly. Please post your thoughts and feedback on this by clicking on the comments button below this post.
