"Follow Me Monday" Family Fun Edition!
WARNING to my regular readers…. For a variety of reasons this “Follow Me Monday” video is a little unconventional compared to previous videos. Having family in town (my mom and middle sister– not my older sister from Tampa), coming down with a cold and being seriously pressed for time contributed to a spontaneous and unique video post.
This video is less informative than my usual “Follow Me Monday” however there are a few good tidbits, yummy recipes and a peek into my morning routine – No makeup, bed head, and the ever so necessary cup of coffee.
I hope you enjoy watching the video as much as we enjoyed filming it… as you will clearly see! 🙂
**If you can’t see the video, then go here to watch it.

I love your videos. I just wish they were longer! I have one tip on picking produce. To pick a ripe pineapple pick out the very center leaf on top and if it pulls easily then it is ripe. My 9 year old loves pineapple and he does this to find the sweetest pineapples.
I would love to know how to pick a ripe watermelon! My 10 year old, that’s her job. Some how she ALWAYS picks the best watermelons. I do a horrible job. She says “she talks to them”. LOL Too funny!
awesome tip!
Hilarious!!! Love the pop-up notes!! Ha, ha!! Thanks for sharing your family with us!!!
alrighty collin, I know this isn’t a grandma site (lol) but I really enjoy your Follow Me Monday videos. And i’ve learned stuff too. My DIL’s are now couponing more because they have seen the deals I’ve gotten. When I try to explain how to stack the coupons they look at me like I’m nuts, so I go to the computer and show them your Follow Me Monday videos
Collin,
I was just wondering about your home! I thought in one of your earlier videos you said you lived on base. My husband is in the Navy and I have been to quite a few of the military housing installations (enlisted) here in Jacksonville, FL. None of them have kitchens anywhere near as nice as yours!!! Is your husband an officer? If not, I want to move up to NC and live on base! LOL! =)
I loved this video b/c we got to meet your family. They look and act just like you! I am adopted and I always wonder if I have family out there that look and act like me. Thanks for sharing them with us! I funny video idea would be to have you and the camera lady switch roles one time!
I don’t know what it was about this video, but my four year old daughter now says she wants to come live with you, with her daddy, me and her dog! LOL!! OMG!! Kids are hilarious.
I totally enjoyed this Follow Me Monday segment!! (as I do everyone). I started out watching them to learn something and now my girls run up when I am on this site asking about “Collin’s latest video!”..I even used this video to prove that one day their sister will be their best friend!! YOU ROCK COLLIN–keep the videos and lemons coming!!
Hi,
I wanted to let you know I love your site. I used to check several sites daily, but realized I only need a daily dose (or two or three) of Hip2Save, You have definitely helped my budget. Thank you!!
Now for the important stuff! I want to have bed head like you, especially if I get to wear a cute hat. I’ve been looking for a hat like yours for a few months. Every thing I find that I like is $40, which is just too much. Maybe I’m just wishin, but if you could share where you got the cutest hat in the world, I would love you even more.;)
Looks like you had fun with your sister. I love your videos. Keep up the good work.
You and your sister had a blast making this weeks video. Makes me want to get together with my sister and have lots of laughs! Love your website and thanks for helping me save money!
Loved the video and just made the Mango Salsa last night. My husband loved it. Never thought to add the Good Seasons Italian Seasoning. Made a big difference. Yum!!! Plan the Texas Cavier tonight. I have to agree about the Target Archer Farms Blue Corn Chips. They are awsome. I have not tried the Cajun Trail Mix yet. Keep the recipes coming….
I usually agree with you, but papayas are DELICIOUS! Especially the ones from Hawaii, my home-state. They are also one of the healthiest foods you can eat…just say’n!
I loved it! You two remind me of my sister and me. Good times! Thanks for the recipes!
I don’t have a sister but man this makes me miss my best friend! (shes in the marine corp stationed in Japan right now) Any who, the recipes were a great idea. Maybe you can have a section where we can post different recipes. I’m always getting online and looking for something new to cook. As for the mango, I’m living in Jacksonville FL now so its a bit harder to find good ones at a good price, I’m originally from El Paso Texas where all year round they have HUGE ones! I love mango, its my favorite fruit so I’m looking forward to trying out that recipe tonight! Like always, loved the video!
Oh one more thing! What is the best way to choose a good mango and avocado, I never seem to pick the good ones!
So how many other people noticed the hidden lemon??? Is this a new game? Find the lemon in the video? In sister’s purse, frozen food section, sister’s sleeve, on the counter… TOO FUNNY!!!
So cute you guys! Hope to see you this summer! xoxo Nicole
