We’re big fans of Twitter in our office, so this College Humor vid made us laugh.

After you’ve guffawed, come follow us on Twitter (@canadianfamily) if you don’t already. We’ve got some fun new Twitter contests happening that you should get in on. So this is how it all began…

When we heard through the grapevine (which in 2009 equals Twitter) that one of our friends, and one of our fav CF writers, Lola Augustine Brown could fit into her pre-baby jeans (a pair of ten year old Levi’s that she is about to put to rest) we were not only jealous, we were intrigued. And so, the conversation began and, with our growing number of followers – come on, just a few more and we hit 1000! – sharing tips and telling stories, we became inspired. So we decided to start a spur of the moment contest called We Love Our Followers on Fridays (#weloveourfollowersonfridays in Twitter speak) and set out to give some love with a mish mash of prizes, including some Secret pantyhose ($20), Mrs. Dash seasonings ($75) and, the piece de resistance, the entire first season of Designing Women (priceless).

But being the ‘go big or go home’ types we decided that we wanted something even better. So, to go back to the initial jeans conversation, we decided to hook up with one of the best…(cue drum roll please) and so Fidelity Denim has graciously agreed to give a pair of their Fidelity Denim Belladonna jeans in Viper Rinse ($188) to one lucky lady. They sound dangerous, don’t they?  Well, don’t be scared the super dark wash of these jeans will help you lose 5 lbs in the time it takes for you to squeeze your butt into them.

So, how do you win? Well it’s easy, all of our followers are automatically entered and anyone who RT (retweets, for any Twitter-illiterate folks) is entered two more times! So wait are you waiting for? Start Tweeting! We will select the winners of all 4 prizes on Monday and let you know who won. Have a great weekend!
