Deep Diving Devoted Divas

No Bake Episode with Colucci Courthouse Chronicles

In this very special episode, the sisters welcome author and coach, Liz Bullard!  Liz has written many books, some mystery/thriller and some fantasy.  She has books for everyone! She currently has a Kickstarter Campaign and can use our support. 
  Liz and Karen bake up an exceptional recipe sent in by Luke of Howdy Beans podcast.  Check out Luke's podcast at <a href="http://www.youtube.com/@TheHowdyBeansPodcast" target="_blank" rel="noopener">www.youtube.com/@TheHowdyBeansPodcast</a> or <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-howdy-beans-podcast/id1781351772" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-howdy-beans-podcast/id1781351772</a> 
  The Millionaire's Shortbread recipe was based on this recipe, but of course was tweaked a little to Karen's taste. <a href="https://scottishscran.com/easy-millionaires-shortbread-recipe/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://scottishscran.com/easy-millionaires-shortbread-recipe/</a> 
This shortbread is so delicious and easy to make.  Don't sleep on this yummy treat! For an extra kick, sprinkle some flake salt on top. 
  Anne unpacks the murder of Greg Rice by his estranged girlfriend, Meaghan Jackson.  How did Meaghan rope in the Deputy Coroner of Horry County, SC, to help her cover it up? Anne followed the trial closely on CourtTV so she came with the details!
