Carrie went home to visit family in Wisconsin. Arriving back home in Ybor City I carried has suitcase into the house. I remarked it was very heavy!!! When I opened it up it was filled with Wisconsin cheese!!!! Then I noticed there were no clothes in the suitcase. I asked where are your clothes Carrie????? With a big smile Carrie said I had the clothes shipped home to make more room for the cheese.
You WON’T want to miss Pride On The River. The volunteers are working overtime to make the event bigger and better! If you have a boat, register online to be in the parade. Sat 9/24
Hi Carrie, My name is Heather Culligan and I work with Brian Buttafuoco at the Tampa Bay History Center. I work as the Curator of Collections and am responsible for managing the museum collection. I’m contacting you because I mentioned to Brian that I’d love to add Pride artifacts to the collection and he gave me your contact information! Our collection currently does not hold a lot of items that tell the Pride story. I’m wondering if you have anything that you would be willing to donate to TBHC. Items could include brochures, pamphlets, photographs, documents, t-shirts – really anything that tells the story of Pride in Tampa.
Thank you so much and I look forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely,
Heather Culligan | Curator of Collections

Clang, Clang, Clang Went Josh Hawley! – A Randy Rainbow Song Parody
Guys – if you ever wanted to attend a Sweep-n-Sleep, make it this one! We need to see some smiling faces Friday night For the new folks – we sweep a lot of the mulch and dirt that the weather displaces throughout the week. We pick up some trash. And we say goodnight to the birds! We have some brooms. If you have a blower, though, bring it!
We have any great memories of Franko and his restaurant “The Laughing Cat”. Originally across the street then moved into the former Street Car Charlies on 15th and 8th ave. Franko was quite the individualist and so much fun!!! The food was unbelievable and the lunch buffet was the BEST IN TOWN!!! Franko taught us to start the buffet with a big handful of mixed salad greens on your plate first. Then add everything else. He would say that his sauces made the best salad dressing you will ever have. He as right and we still do this today at home.
A Easy recipe so good we had to share it!!!
We all know how hard it is to cook for 1 or 2 people. Here is a fun & easy recipe for left overs. In our home there is always left-over spaghetti. The next day try making this Spaghetti casserole. Simply lightly grease a casserole dish. Put ½ the left overs in the dish and spread out. In a separate bowl mix together 1 cup cottage cheese and ½ cup sour cream. Then spread this over the spaghetti. Next make a layer with the remaining spaghetti. Top with grated mozzarella cheese. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes just until the cheese starts to bubble. That is it!!!
