Well, if we're strolling down memory lane, does anyone recall the bishop's private chapel on the 2nd floor? Did it have a blue fleur-de-lis ceiling? I always loved that chapel, but the only time I was ever allowed in it was for the 1st week we arrived at the seminary for our Ignatian retreat. Never saw it again after that.
PS: How about that seminary bread Scott made? That was the best ever.
I loved that chapel. I was there before your time, and Matthew's, from 1989-1992 or so, and it was not locked down then. I snuck in there all the time to pray, because I like it so much. It was my favorite chapel, plus I could usually be there alone.
Yet, I was there before Scott and never had the opportunity to try Scott's bread. Now, there was a guy there for a while working as the head cook, who later got fired for stealing stuff from a seminarian's room (turns out he had a psychological compulsion for kleptomania), and he made some of the best meals out of the substandard ingredients that came from the food bank. Whenever he asked me what he should make for dessert, I told him the banana cream pie. In any case, some of us wanted him not to get fired, so we said we would put some stuff out for him to steal every once in a while so he could satisfy his urge.
