Me: single with no family. Still watches Christine meal prep just to support her and watch all the funny friends references!!! 🤣🤣🤣💗💗💗
I'm not frugal I'm not fit and I'm not a mom but here I am 😂😂
@@tooziefaloozie same! Hahaha
Me too! I have so much stuff frozen due to Christine and Jamerrill ( large family table). I don’t need to cook for 3 months and the garden just went in, lol. 🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️😉
@@tooziefaloozie same!
Me too! Not a mum, not fit and not frugal. But I found out about no kneed bread from Christine. I literally love this channel. Oh and we just bought an air fryer because I was seeing lovely things that Christine was making. I love it!!! We’ve used it so much since we got it, like 5 times this week alone. We live in South West France, but I take so many amazing lessons from this channel. Hooray!!! 💛💙💜💚
Me: a young wife with just myself and my husband to feed learning how to feed a family of 6 😀
SAME
Yaaay leftovers lol Or feeding friends, that's what I do when I make too much. My single guy friends love it when I stress bake too because I'm always offloading the goods onto them 😂🤣
Anna me too!!
Perk to this, a meal to stick in the freezer with no extra effort
It’ll come in handy some day 🙃
"ope, he got kneed in the face.. is he gonna be okay? Good, they're hugging.. He's still sad.. Okay, dad's there". I love your real parenting, real cooking, real family, and real personality. New sub!
1st kid: OMG get to the ER, I think they've bumped their head on a soft-ball. Any other kids you have: I hear crying, is it one of ours? Is there blood? How much blood are we talking about? Like a teaspoon or a jug full? They got up by themselves so it's not that bad, they can walk it off.
@@aralitra haha 😄 😆
I chuckled at this part of the commentary too. So real life!!!
"someone's crying, is he going to get over it?" Good mom right there. Watch's, but lets the child try to deal with it on their own to be self sufficient. More moms like that please.
Apparently, screaming "45 minutes of Christine!!!!" In my boyfriend's ear was not appreciated, but honestly this is what I wanted today!
LOL!
OMG I didn't even realise it was this long haha
"Are yall sick of me yet?" No. No were not Christine. Lol! Almost 46 minute video-all I could think was heck yeah! How many recipes are we getting??? Lol!
Koffee Kat lol. I don’t mind the longer videos either.
I didn’t even notice it was 45 minutes and I watched the whole thing 😅
RUclips is my tv so its my food channel
Your reaction to getting the RUclips plaque was probably THE most genuine things I've seen. Lots of RUclipsrs that post videos of them receiving those either come across as "no big deal" or whatever, but you can tell that it really impacted you and I love that.
I agree. I saw a lot of great reactions. I think it is a wonderful achievement and you should be proud because it's a lot of work putting videos and content together for the world.
I'm a middle-aged, childless, vegetarian and I absolutely love your channel, Christine! I love your sense of humor.
I’m a childless vegetarian millennial and uhh same!
Yall failed as women 😂
How so? Now everyone wants kids or can have kids. You don't know their lives. Why be nasty?@@Dantedmc713_
@@ebonymurphy-root9564 because the whole point of being a woman is to bear and nurture children for the betterment of the world!!!!
@@Dantedmc713_ 🥱 Ok, alpha bot
Don’t u all wish u had her energy n skills????
Truth
Watching Christine getting that youtube plaque was so cute! Seriously well deserved you beautiful person
I got teary like I was the one getting it. Lol
I cried too lol
Well Deserved Surprise and Earned.
Oh, absolutely! And for quality content that truly helps people, I just love it! More of it! 🥳🥳🥳
Still makes me happy for her when I watch this one. Can see the pure joy on her face.
Did anyone else laugh outloud when she said "oh I wish I could but I don't want to" to her child? Lolol. Mom goals.
Watching you makes me appreciate my mom. I’m one of four with three brothers. We constantly ate her out of house and home. You make this look so effortless. I love and admire it.
Also, since our family was 6 (not including any friends or cousins that came over) I now understand why the jumbo Costco size stuff is a necessity.
My daughter used to call the bread outlet store ‘The used bread store’. When you talked about it.. it brought a smile to my heart
Fun tip for making spaghetti sauce! When you're cooking the onions with the meat, add fennel seeds and paprika. That fakes the Italian sausage flavor but with a cheaper meat like beef or turkey, and it even works in a meatless lentil ragout too! It's much cheaper for me to do that, and then I have fennel seeds to use for other stuff too
Not good for anyone allergic to fennel
@@huckleberrywinn .... captain obvious
Thank you for the tip! I'm definitely trying that out. I need to use my fennel seeds too!
Oooh nice tip! As far as I've seen we can't get Italian sausage in the UK so there's a lot of recipes I just have to pass on. I'll give this a try next time 😊
I feel for your friend 😂 my husband won’t eat casseroles, soups, stews or curries...all those things are my favourite and are usually cheap to do..he drives me mental 😂
I’m dying laughing at Dave double fisting cheesecake at the end of the video. 🤣 Another great video; thanks, Christine!
I'm single and living alone in Czech Republic and I watch Christine's videos on regular basis. There is something fun and calming about them otherwise I have no explanation :-D So such a long video was simply a treat!:) I was so sad when it was over!:)
I'm the same way! 😁
I'd like to travel around a bit before I'm too old to do so, but I need to work for a few more years to pay off bills. Czech Republic is on my bucket list, if I'm able to get there.
@@kristinatidwell6563 You definitely should!:) Especially Prague is so worth it and everyone tends to love it:) I hope your dreams come true, dear Tina. Thank you for sharing them with me❤️
I’ve seen a few you tubers get their play button, and I’ve never really felt proud of them. Not like in a negative way I just didn’t feel anything. But I feel like soooo proud of you! I’m so happy for you!
I freaking love the Friends references 🤣🤣🤣 One of my all time favorite shows.
The kids are all up in my grill. 😂 said every mother ever!
I watch all hour videos on my tv but it doesn’t allow me to like them so I always sign in on my phone to make sure I like every video 🤠
LOL!
That's really sweet and giving of u
Same!!! Lol just singed in to do that 😂
I love watching the long videos during my dialysis treatments. It's making the treatment feel like it goes by quicker 😁
Oh no! Is it permanent or temporary? Are you going to need a kidney transplant?
@@FrugalFitMom Long Story about to ensue **** Kidneys failed in 2006 when I was 17. I did Peritoneal dialysis (you have a port in your abdomen & do it at home) from 2006-2012. In 2012 I received a kidney transplant but was warned it wasn't a great match. I accepted anyway since I had been waiting for so long. Well by the end of 2015 the transplant had failed and I had to return to dialysis. I went back on peritoneal dialysis but my abdomen was so warn out from the previous years of treatment the dialysis just wasn't working well enough. So I had to go on Hemodialysis which means you have a port in your arm & you have to go to a clinic 3 days a week to receive your treatment because they put 2 needles in your arm each treatment to filter your blood. So I go in at 5am & I get out around 10am every M, W, F. I will continue to do that until I receive another transplant. I am currently on a list but it's just a waiting game. Also because of the long term dialysis I've been on it made my parathyroid hormone out of wack which causes the calcium to be pulled from your bones. So last year I found out I had broke my hip & had been walking on it for 4 months 🤦♀️🤦♀️ (Had an xray when I began having hip pain & was told I was fine) anyway they said my bones were weak from the hormone being out of wack. So January of 2019 I had my parathyroid glands removed (which caused me to be in the ICU on a calcium drip for 19 days) then the very next day I went back in for surgery to have a rod put down my right leg to fix my hip. Good news is now that the parathyroid glands are removed my bones are getting stronger so hopefully no more broken bones. So to some it up I'm now 31, stay at home cat mom/cook for my mailman husband whose had one failed transplant & has been on dialysis off & on since 2006 & has recently recovered from a broken hip. I know it all sounds overwhelming but I'm doing ok. On a lighter note if you want to get some good laughs or have anyone else gets some good laughs.... check out my tiktok @erinlynnclampitt 🥰
@@erinlynnc280 WOW! What a trial you have been through, I am inspired by your positive attitude and sending internet hugs. I'll be thinking about you and hoping you get a better match this time around.
ErinLynnC Blessings🦋😌
@@erinlynnc280
“Now they’re hugging.” ❤️❤️
congrats on your silver play award, well deserved❤️
Pineapple on pizza? Yes plz. I love how the heat crisps up the pineapple
Stefanie o mmmm and the sweet with the salty
Yes! I like mine some chicken as well
@@ebgbjo2025 try a pastrami pizza with extra pickles... Soooo good
Icky ewe
@@ebgbjo2025 ewww 😝🤣
Wait, is this really a 45-minute Christine video? Whhhaaaattttt? 😍
Don't get used to it! HA!
I'm not sure I have ever heard anyone who didn't say he hated the sound of his own voice. We just don't sound the way we think we sound and that's why we usually hate hearing ourselves on tape. Think of some of the contestants on AI or AGT who THINK they have a great voice but when questioned they say they have never listened to a recording of their own voice.
My brothers and I used to provide special singing in church. Sometimes we sang solos, sometimes duets, sometimes trios, sometimes quartets and when the whole family (8 children plus our dad) was involved we pretty much had our own choir! Our dad was the minister and we didn't really have any choice about whether we would sing or not.
He made us practice and practice and practice until we were heartily sick of the song. He was part of a men's quartet when he was in college and he told us that they never sang a new song in church or on the radio until they had practiced that song at least a hundred times! That should give you some idea of how much he made US practice.
He would also record us, on a reel-to-reel tape recorder...if anyone is old enough to remember those....and then play the songs back and make us critique ourselves. I HATED hearing myself on those tapes so I can totally understand why you would hate having to listen to yourself long enough to edit a LONG tape. If it's any consolation, those of us who are watching you LIKE the way you sound so don't be concerned if you personally think you sound weird. You don't!
@@maryannanderson7517 I have my dad's reel-to-reel tape recorder. ❤
Hang on to it. It's a dinosaur! Do you have tapes for it?
@@maryannanderson7517 I do, some albums and some blank ones. I also have the manual. My dad was the original owner.
I remember when I was first married I was tasked with making my in-laws family recipe for cheese cake for a family gathering back in ‘69. I almost got put out of the family! Lol! I made it and it turned out higher than anyone else’s! They were convinced that I had doubled the recipe! All I did was whip the daylights out of it! That made it lighter and fluffier! Lol!
Hi - am a 2nd generation Jamaican/ Canada listening in Toronto, who loves to cook and loves entertaining and am also entering into my frugal journey. I love your ideas. Congratulations on your RUclips recognition!
Christine, I’m still watching this video, but I wanted to stop and say congratulations on your silver RUclips button award. So proud to be a part of your RUclips family 😁🤗. I also thought it was so sweet when Dave said that he’d have to build you something just for it. What an awesome husband and family you have!! God Bless you all and stay safe 🤗🙏🏻💕
Dang girl! I'm exhausted from just watching you cook all of that lol! Seriously though, you are highly entertaining. Never stop just being you and doing things the FFM way. And a big congrats on your play button. You earned it and deserve it! Thanks for always bringing us great content. I know you've inspired me to cook so much more in the last 9 months or so that I have been following. Happy Saturday!
You're not boring. here I sit up at 2:00 a.m. watching you it's very enlightening.
stumbled on this video by accident and i love her already
I’ve watched you for ages, and love listening to you. The last 45 minutes flew by, and I was sad when the video finished. You are interesting, a bit quirky, and very funny. You are so natural in front of the camera, and it is a pleasure to be one of your long time subscribers. Congratulations on your achievement!
Wow, thank you!
Congratulations on your plaque christine! You so deserve it! You have helped me get through this shelter in place i look foward every morning to sitting down with my cup of coffee & enjoying watching your videos! I have learned so much from you as we are also a large family of 8 i have been laid off & i have been cooking more than ever. When it comes to our large shopping trips im definitely trying to be more frugal & bargain shop like you! I really wana thank you christine & you need to know you are very appreciated! 🥰
I love your and daves relationship you can tell you love each other so much! Luv your channel!
I totally cried when you got your RUclips plaque. So proud of you. You are AMAZING
Her genuine happiness for the silver play button is so freakin cute. Congrats, Christine! 🤗🤗🤗
I got an instapot finally. I am absolutely in love. Being super busy as a healthcare worker it makes cooking so much easier.
Christine. I could watch you make a 6 hour video, turn the sound off and watch it all over again and then put it on a loop !!! Such a little treasure.
CONGRATULATIONS! You deserve every bit of it!
Yayyyyyyyyyy congratulations honey we lovvveeee youuuu ❤️❤️ Also don’t throw your egg shells away if you’re growing tomatoes and peppers crush them up and pop them in the soil xx so great for your plants xxxx Also banana skins are great for soil too xx I just stick them straight into the containers and cover with soil loads of good nutrients for your garden that would normally go in the bin xx waste not want not ❤️❤️🌶🌶🌻🌻
Lorraine Benton Very true!! And USED coffee grounds, too!!
"Kids are all up in my grill." 🙌🙌 I have a 4 year old and 1 year old.... our bubble machine is gonna burn out quick... *Here kids, go pop some bubbles while momma cleans*
Love it!!
At 4, our mom used to give us our own damp cloth (just water) & we would "help" clean doors or floors etc or we'd help put washing in/out of the washing machine, hand her pegs for hanging the washing out etc... Means your kids learn they need to help out w house work from a young age & keeps em busy while you do the actual cleaning!
I need a bubble machine and a mojito on ice.
I have a 17&19 yr old daughters they are always asking me something especially if I am doing a livestream or a video LOL 😂
I have a 4 year old and at times as though I do love my baby but there are days where I want to scram out the door on a vacay lol 😵😵
I just discovered you yesterday also. LOVE your content. Love the real parenting and supermom vibes. Great family, great times.
Adopting hubby’s Two spoon or two fork method so clever
Just found you
Watching from Australia
It’s much easier to eat healthfully when you prepare in advance.
Love how thorough you are, when you say you will link something you ACTUALLY do put the link below! :) -patty
Can I say I absolutely love watching you no matter how long! You are so real. You show life as it is, which I totally appreciate! Thanks again for all your videos!!
I'm totally worn out just watching you! You're a great person and a jewel to your family! It's awesome watching you cook and prep foods for your family!
Congrats on your silver play. I’ve been down with pneumonia. My fourteen year old said when I came in the living room, mom you wanna watch your favorite cook tuber today? And I automatically knew he was talking about you. We enjoy watching your videos, long and short, then deciding what I will cook once I get better! Once I knew you had roots in Louisiana I knew why I felt you were a kindred spirit in spice!
Your son sounds like he loves his mama immensely
💓
I love how Christine is always laughing about what foods other people hate 😂
I am tired after long day, preppig my breakfast but I literally stopped to watch you opening the RUclips plate (?). You made me smile :)
I’m sure you won’t see this, or someone has already commented this, but don’t put your knives in the dishwasher. They dull SO much faster and can chip.
Anytime you make a food vid and Dave says, "It's soooo good!" I help but smile, but the two-fork moment -- PRICELESS!! :)
😁
@@FrugalFitMom whered you get your apron i LOVE it also cucumbers tomatoes and onions in vinegar my favorite....
I'm dying for that cheesecake!!! Your husband double forking it was hilarious!! And makes me want it even more.
And 45 minutes is not to long to watch you... at least in my opinion
It was a cross between a key lime pie and cheesecake - it was AMAZING!
@@FrugalFitMom yes I want it.... I dont have a spring form pan... is there any other option?
@@atxbrighteyes I would invest in a springform pan if you are going to make cheesecake!
@@FrugalFitMom
Hey...guess what I'm making this week..?? LIME CHEESECAKE.
hahaha
I have never used limes (only lemons, yum), but I bet it is going to be UH-MAZE-EEENG!!!
Love the way you talk... fast and just the way you are. No acting! You rock! So cool!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! I was so happy for you. I almost cried when you opened your sign. ❤
It’s not weirdly exciting that you got your play button! It’s so freaking awesome! Great job! You are killing it! -Lindsay
Congrats on the plaque and thank you for sharing the joy with us. I love how supportive your hubby is of you
🤗
I LOVE LOVE long videos. Especially for meal prep and cleaning out YOUR pantry and fridge. It gives me ideas and inspires me. I will be moving out soon and I need to stay on a budget for food and your videos help me get ideas on what is possible
I just discovered your channel about a week ago, and now I’m nonstop just shuffling through your videos. You inspire me as a mom and wife. I thoroughly enjoy your positive nature and energetic personality 💕✌🏻
I love all of your FRIENDS references!!!
Add your ripe bananas to your French toast mix. Mash super fine. It’s delish and adds natural sweetness. Give it a try.
I dont much like long videos, however I couldn’t quit watching, it took me all afternoon to watch it all. Great thanks.
Pineapple and ham pizza? YES!
In South America, we boil the pineapple peelings with cloves and cinnamon sticks for 30 minutes, add sugar ( or not) let it cool in summer, or drink it warm in winter! Talk about frugality señora!
One more tip, stick the top of the pineapple on a pot with soil and water it every now and then, yes you get a pineapple ( a mini but still) this will work better in a hot climate.
Love hanging out with you Christine in this hard times.
So relaxing
I'm so glad!
"i wish i could but i don't want to" my mother got a kick out of that :D hahah
That is how my family makes hamburger pie/Sheppard's pie. I have never known anyone else to make it that way. And it's also one my favorite meals as a kid too. 😍🥰
OMGOSH! YOU'RE AMAZING! I'm retired, empty nester, but I love the idea of meal preps for 1-2. I work part time and cook a lot of my lunches & dinners. The Banana Bread, the Granola, well everything looked delicious. Thank you for sharing. Congratulations on your award. I'm a new subscriber, so now you have 100,001....
1st, congratulations on your RUclips "button", very well deserved. 2nd, I love watching your videos, you are such a lovely family and you keep it real, not trying to be perfect. 3rd, I love seeing the cooking videos best, I have picked up quite a few new ideas to try and I need to definitely try the cheesecake soon. Thank you for these inspirational videos (not very often I use the word "inspirational") I look forward to them every day.
You're the best!
Agreed!! I love the cooking videos too!
This is what I subscribe for. These FRIENDS inserts literally are me 24/7. I mean uh.. food preps cool too. yeah. (:
It's literally what runs around in my head and a lot of the time, what comes out of my mouth!
You deserve the RUclips award. Love your channel
Love a long video too when I’m washing dishes and cleaning the kitchen!! Makes it go by faster ☺️ Thanks for all the tips and tricks!
Seeing your face when you got the award made me smile. Your hard work on your channel shines through. Thank you for the content you make (:
I’m so glad I found your channel! Congratulations on your silver play!
Who else is distracted by just watching the dog lmaoo
I love that your kids hugged after one got hurt. To be honest my brothers would of laughed after purposely kneeing me in the face. Good mum!
Christine, if my family knew that I watched your channel they would thank you. You are helping me keep my sanity during lockdown/isolation. Congratulations on receiving your RUclips plaque. A lot of hard work went into achieving that.
Loved your excitement over the plaque. Congratulations!
🎉
Watching this from the future (2023), seeing your reaction to the play button, and knowing what a massive success your channel has become is making my heart smile today.
Your banana bread recipe is the only one I make now. It's amazing and I love that there are no special ingredients needed that I don't normally have in the house!
I love when you do the screaming during the blender. I get a kick out of it every time 😂❤️
no apologies, was a great video. I'm astounded you can cook so much stuff, with so much going on and not burn everything!!!! Congratulations on the plaque!!! You and yours, stay well.
I absolutely love watching you and your real life quirks. Love it! Folding laundry, pop on one of your videos. Stay you, stay real, stay quirky.
YES to Pineapple on my pizza - LOVE IT!!!
I need to meal prep more. Managed to meal prep carrot cake today 😂😂
Im so happy for you about the play button!! You deserve it so much ❤ Keep up the good work, loooove your videos ❤
Thank you so much!!
Literally have been up past my bedtime because you save me and my family time!!! Time we spend together, also budget tips that have saved me hundreds!!!
God bless, thank you! Peace to you and yours❤❤❤❤❤❤😻
Oh my gosh I love longer vids especially yours because every 5 minutes you’re like “okay I’m finished with this moving on now” and I’m cleaning while I watch/listen and it makes me go faster because in my head I’m like “HOLY COW LETS GO” just cleaned my WRECK of a kitchen in 45 minutes..... thank you lol
Really like your mixer. If I had money and it was available in Australia, definitely would consider buying one.
I ordered those bread pans from Ikea after watching your other bread videos. It took a couple weeks because of pandemic but I love those pans! Congratulations!
Wonderful!
I love how real you are. You are fun to watch. I like the way you move through the action and narrate.
I like your long videos, but I like longer videos for most people, because I love watching meal preps and vlogs while crocheting, knitting, sewing or crafting / arting in general.
Some fennel with ground beef will ‘sausage’ your sauce
Congratulations on the RUclips button!
Wowwww. Congratulations!!!!
I love how your whole family just walks into your video! Congratulations on your plaque!!
Cottage pie when it's hamburger. Shepherd's pie when it's lamb.
You mean mince beef or ground beef? A hamburger is something you make with those not its actual name lmao
Yup.
@@bearsy2826 Some people call ground meat "ground hamburger", "hamburger meat" or just "hamburger". It's a thing.
Love, love and love all the food prep. I have been trying to diversify what I feed my family and your channel has been so massively helpful. Thank you!!
I CAN'T BELIEVE you've been asked why you use gloves when you cook/mix food. I LOVE that you use them and the reasons you mentioned as to why you use them.
Love that the dog was watching you too.
