Soup Kitchen Tradition Continues









On Saturday, October 5, 20 MBA students, Mr. Paolicchi, Mrs. Ellery, Mr. Chenery, and Dr. Carro went to the Loaves and Fishes soup kitchen to provide a meal for 146 fellow Nashvillians. Led by seniors Chris “Tears of Camaraderie” Mowery, Tarun “Blinded by the Spice” Mallipeddi, and Brandon “Iron Eyes” Carpenter, the Big Red served up a meal of savory chicken enchiladas with Moes-caliber queso and spicy tomatillo salsa, scrumptious Spanish rice, succulent Mexican black beans, zesty salad, and for dessert, syrupy sopapillas. A big thanks to all who came out, and especially to Freshman deep-sink cleaner phenoms Patrick Andreen, Rush Gorney, and Duncan McGinn. The second Loaves and Fishes of the year continued MBA’s strong tradition of competent culinary capability in the memory of contributions of Mr. Tate. He served meals for 10 years and is most remembered for his generosity and his elaborate desserts, including the famous "Hawaiian Surprise." Mr. Chenery led the planting of 6 blueberry bushes in the garden at Holy Name Church. Wendy Overlock (from Catholic Charities) presented a framed photo of Billy that includes a handwritten copy of the his famous recipe (to be hung in the kitchen), and Chris and Brandon led a moment of silence in Mr. Tate's memory before the blessing.
