On February 12, 1884, an American Icon is born. Her name? Alice Hathaway Lee Roosevelt. Born into a house of tragedy, she rose to become the queen bad bitch herself. This week we cover Alice Roosevelt the presidential daughter who changed history. 

For dinner, we had presidential foods such as Barbara Bush’s mushroom quiche. For dessert, we had a presidential dessert of creme brule and our drinks were Whiskey Sours. This meal won the taste elections by a landslide.

Karen and Anne from Sugar Coated Murder Podcast take over the diner this week. They brought us their southern perspectives of the Murdaugh trial as their daily lives were inundated with the trial as residents of South Carolina. 

They had Cindy make a recipe that is near and dear to them, Sailor Sandwiches. The dessert was a Gooey Chocolate Cake made with their Killa Vanilla.  Of course, we had to have a Bourbon drink, their own recipe which was Simply Apple Juice with Bourbon.  

We provide a trial update post initial recording.

There once was a woman named Cotton, who killed all the kin she had gotten. She had more than one spouse and killed in her house so she hung like a yo-yo a boppin. This week we cover Mary Ann Cotton, England’s premiere female serial killer. 

For dinner, we had some delicious toad in the hole and Yorkshire pudding. I promise you this dish was as confusing to us as the name suggests. For dessert, we had caramel shortbread squares in true British tea style. For drinks, what’s better than a classic Pimm's cup? Nothing is we tell you.

Do you know the Muffin Man? Well, we might. This week we share the history behind those nursery rhymes and fairy tales we had drilled into our heads. Those sweet verses had nothing sweet about them. 

For dinner, we shared Shepherds Pie and for dessert, we had blueberry cream cheese muffins. These treats would’ve had Miss Muffet off her tuffet. We washed it all down with Monte Rio Cellars Pinkette Rose as all modern fairy tales should end.

This week we cover the story of the Axeman of New Orleans who from May 1918 to October 1919, was a  madman who targeted Italian grocers in New Orleans, Louisiana.  The Axeman, as he became known, was never caught or identified. His killing spree ended as mysteriously as it started, and he became almost a ghost story.

For dinner, we shared some delicious Creole chicken and sausage jambalaya and New Orleans style beignets. For drinks, we went with hurricanes. All were amazing tastes of New Orleans cuisine.
