Episode 12 - Hidden Skeletons: The Curious Case of Eugene Butler

8 Recommendations

Hold on to your butts, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride! Emily shared this case with me and it is bonkers. Eugene Butler lived a quiet and unassuming life in the late 19th and early 20th century in Niagara, ND, with the occasional night ride across the countryside. He’d later be committed but perhaps not for the reasons you may think based on the episode title. Join us as we talk a little bit about what Eugene may or may not have done.

We also have an ANNOUNCEMENT! We are so close to having 300 followers on Instagram. Once we reach that threshold we are going to host a giveaway of Mocktail Party written by Kerry Benson, MS, RD & Diana Licalzi, MS, RD! I love this book and I hope you will, too.

Finally, this week's mocktail is Katie's take on the classic Irish Coffee cocktail. She was inspired by Lisa-Marie's podcast, Coffee & Crime! Traditionally made using strong black coffee and Irish whiskey, we'll simply sub for a whiskey alternative - whatever your favorite it.
ingredients
5-6oz brewed coffee; can be hot or iced
1.5oz whiskey alternative of your choice
sweetener of choice, to taste
frothed cream
1. Pour the brewed coffee into your favorite mug. Add in sweetener of your choosing. If using cold brew I would recommend using a simple syrup so it all mixes well.
2. Add in the whiskey alternative and give everything a stir.
3. Top with the frothed/whipped cream; to get that classic look, pour over the back of a spoon into the mug. Enjoy! Cheers :-)
