(4:00) Then they share chili recipes, with Anna's and Vinnie's versions. (7:10) Vinnie surprises Anna by calling in "Lois" (aka, Leona--yours truly, show notes writer extraordinaire) to chat about a couple of recent episodes of the show, especially the Sunday show where Vinnie shares how he met Serena. (ep. 2228) (10:50) "Lois" exits and Vinnie and Anna discuss how the holidays and LILs have been kicked off, starting with Halloween candy. (24:20) For any newbies to NSNG®, LIL means "Life Into Living." They chat about temptations and how allowing yourself too many LILs during the holidays adds up. This means that 1/6 of your year is taken up by non-NSNG items and de-railing progress! Vinnie just wants people to get their life back! Now Anna gets to inspire us with all kinds of wonderful ideas for Thanksgiving and references several items from her Thanksgiving menu here. (35:00) IN OTHER NEWS Anna and Vinnie switch to talking about knives, and they encourage you to go to friend Scott Sweder's website to witness his craftsmanship and beautiful work: ironbearknifeandforge.com. (51:00) This leads to a conversation about various types of leather, boots, and more. There is also a mention of "Jeff's Haberdashery." (59:00) Vinnie emphasizes how the recent change in Twitter seems to have opened up activity on his account, and more people are seeing his tweets, which is awesome!
