Breville Mixer Winner!
Last week I offered you a beautiful Breville mixer as the grand finale to the November giveaway.
I made you work for it though… right?
I asked you to send me a picture of you with your favorite kitchen tool and daaaaang! You really like to show off!
Your beautiful faces absolutely lit up my inbox.
So bright. So shiny. I just had to share.
Some of you are really into your whisks. I get it. I think my whisk is pretty excellent.
Look at these faces. I wanna kiss you all… in a totally normal way.
Coffee! Totally important. I feel ya.
Nice mugs.
That sounds like a boob joke, but it’s not.
Silpats are totally handy.
So are hands. You so clever.
Ps. I’d really like one of those pretzel sticks please.
Um….
….um….
Dudes read this blog!?
Now there’s proof.
Weird.
Hello gentlemen. Um… I feel shy. Sorry about all the pink and kitten pictures?
Ladies and their knives. Fierce.
Now…. Let me interrupt this love fest to say that… well, if you don’t see your picture here, it’s not because I don’t think you’re beautiful and talented… it’s just that there were aaaaaaaa lllllooooootttttt of pictures to process and not nearly enough hours in the day. Stay tuned for more surprise pictures in the future.
You guys really like your fancy pans. Super swell.
Ps… Nice winter hat in the kitchen.
I love my microplane too! Mine usually smells like orange zest or nutmeg.
Whatever.
I wish I could use my microplane as a nail file but that would be weird and gross. Ew. Nevermind.
Pretty Pretty Apron Ladies. I wanna cook with you.
These rolling pin shots made me laugh. You ladies seems serious.
Also… I’d like some chocolate. That has nothing to do with anything.
Look at you and your mixers. You look so happy!
And finally! You boozers are my kind of women. Wine in the kitchen. Highly suggested. Invite me over, pretty please!
Thank you for your smiling faces. You turned the Internet into real life. That was pretty rad of you. I wish I had a thousand mixers to give to all of you.
Jennifer! I have some major news.
You and your turmeric spoon won a Breville mixer.
Major!
Congratulations! It’s a very good day.

Ha ha, never seen a bunch of girls looking so happy with their mixers. Congratulations to Jennifer, and thanks, Joy, for sharing this fun post!
I love that pic of the girl holding the rolling pin behind her head. It’s such a casual I’m-getting-ready-to-roll-some-ill-shit pose.
That is soooo funny. But you’re exactly right!
I didn’t know men read this blog either-wow! Congrats to the winner! Great giveaway and I enjoyed seeing the pictures people sent in-the money thru the grater is funny. I’m glad you were not corrupted by it!
Fun post!! I was thinking, though … maybe all the guy pix were just those gals favorite kitchen tools! Their sweet, significant others are their best kitchen helpers! I know mine (my hubby) is! :)
Amen! Washer, peeler, chopper, bartender… ;p all in one! Plus, upper body strength makes a wicked stiff peak! ^_^
What a cute post! I’m sure it took forever to collage those photos together but the end result is so worth it!
Don’t stop the pink and kitten photos just for boys–they’re not worth it! More kitten photos, please :)
I’m with Ali, totally loving the rolling pin behind the head. I think I’ll incorporate that into my yoga routine….
Congratulations to Jennifer, what an awesome giveaway. I love this post too, how cute are all these pics???
PS: That is cool that guys read your blog. Makes sense, it’s the best blog out there.
My picture was on Joy the Baker! How cool is that, even though I didn’t win. Great giveaway congrats to the winner.
Wow- looks like a lot of people entered! Congrats, Jennifer! XP
I’m sort of baffled by how everybody, for the most part, chose the same tools. Whyyyyy?
If I had entered, I would have taken a picture of either my man cookie cutter… Just sayin’. It’s shiny and it is fun to eat human-shaped cookies. Heh. Shiny.
Adorable! Congrats Jennifer enjoy that mixer.
I am excited my picture made it on a collage:) Thanks Joy, keep rockin’.
Oh I love all the men that sent in! Congrats to Jennifer, so jelous :)
Aweome pictures Joy!! :) You have soo many fans and followers!!
Congrats, Jennifer! Oh, and Joy, you know you’ve hit the big time when you’ve got dudes on your blog.
Just sayin’.
Congrats to the winner! Great collage, Joy!
Congrats, Jennifer!! This is such a fun post. Love how all the pictures are organized by gadget!
p.s. I’m the unhappy looking girl with the mixer…sad because it belongs to my roommates! ;)
Congrats to Jennifer! I’m in the gang of people who were just thrilled that their picture was up on joythebaker! I’m also happy (and not surprised at all) that I look like the most caffeinated person in the coffee people group of pictures.
If I am going out of town to see friends and know I’ll be cooking, I actually take my whisk and a cookie scoop with me! Based on all of the entries with a whisk, I am not the only one who likes my kitchen gadgets! Congrats to Jennifer. Thank you Joy for continuing to do a great job on your blog.
After this week…you just made me smile…really smile. Thank you!!!!
Congrats Jennifer! Loved seeing all the Joy Followers – too cute!
I write about women of our grandmothers’ generation whose most advanced kitchen tool was a wooden spoon, but your collage is the happiest bunch of bakers I’ve seen in a long time.
I didn’t win, but who cares because my pic is on joythebaker. I’m famous!
Go Team Silpat! So fun to see myself on my favorite blog!
i might have told my entire job, facebook AND twitter that i was on J the B! : ) i didn’t win (which i knew haha) but this made my whole DAY. thanks Joy!!!
p.s. i’m the extra happy one with the microplane over her nose haha
This post makes me so happy! I think I know some random ladies in the pictures (like maybe someone from high school?) who I haven’t seen if like forever. Plus you’re rocking a pic of me and another of my cousin. Joy- you rock for uniting all us baking fiends!
What a fun and creative post! I really enjoyed reading it :)
Hilarious and oh so much fun! Well done to all, wonderful post Joy!!
So cute! How I wish I was in the States.
Congrats to Jennifer! and I am excited for my blog debut, not maybe I can get motivated to start on my own blog like I have been wanting to. (I am the silly girl with my ebelskiver pan!) Love, love, love it!
I had to share, I finally started my food blog!! woo hoo!
Hooray for kitchen tools! I love those photos. :-)
I have news for you. It’s revolutionary. It’ll change your life. Microplane makes foot files. Have you died yet? Just wait till you try it.
As one member of the silent male audience I’d just like to explain that your writing style is great fun to read, your food choices spectacular (and craving inducing) and your outlook charming… Regardless of one’s preferences towards pink and kittens. :)
Umm…. helloooooooooo BOYS! My name is Amy, I like cooking. You must like cooking too? I’m totally single…
I mean… no, Joy, I am NOT using your blog as a dating service…
Dudes represent! By the time I got to the collage with the guys I was starting to think to myself, “my god, I am the only guy that reads this blog.” Nice to know that I’m not alone. My wife definitely doesn’t mind that I hang out will all these women; she gets cake in return. Who can argue with that?
This is exactly why I love your blog. For me this is the best cooking blog ever. You bring your charm to everyone. Look at those pretty faces! Congrats to the winner and kudos to you Joy! Um yeah and the guys collage… yum!
I’m glad to see that I am not the only woman whose picture with her favorite knife looks more like Kathy Bates in Misery than it looks like any respectable cook. (http://heartymagazine.com/blog/ladies-of-scary).
Maybe I should have worn a pretty apron…?
Love the pictures even if I’m too late to join and the contest has expired. Love the ladies with knives! And a microplane as a nail file? You should watch “The world’s Fastest Indian” to see what Anthony Hopkins did to his nails.. :) Most refreshing post today. :)
Joy!
We were all winners!!! Our moments of fame on a blog…
You stinker…I thought only you would see them!
Genius idea, tho!!!
Love it! YOU ARE AWESOME! and I’m a loser!!!
Congrats to Jennifer! Ooh, hey- that’s me! One of the serious women, armed and dangerous! When a woman wields a rolling pin, people tend to listen. It’s not just my favorite tool, it’s my exclamation point!!!!
Looks like I found your site too late to win that beautiful mixer :( Love your place, it’s homie, I will definitely be back for a visit :)
sniff sniff, didnt get to send a pic coz I was too busy baking mini-cakes for my godson’s party.
love viewing all the pics though, awesome idea :) I am still wishing I was there…**hubby is trying to make me feel good by saying, “there will be next time”**
congrats to the winner, love the spoon :)
Devastated I didn’t win the mixer but I am beside myself giddy that my pic made the blog!! I mean, I look to next to me and there I am all excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the coolest EVER!! I can’t imagine what will happen if I actually win something!
This has got to be the funniest post I have read. I loved the fact you featured many of these photos. I laughed at the fact that you realized that guys read your blog. Amazing!
Then the ones with the rolling pin was more hilarious! They look like they are ready to hurt someone. :D
WOW! That. Was. Fun. Congrats to Jennifer. Thanks Joy, for making November so much fun!
LOVE the pictures! And I got quite a chuckle at all the “I’m-not-a-winner-but-I’m-famous-cause-my-pic-is-posted-on-Joy-the-Baker” comments!
I always enjoy the positive vibes I get here…bubbly talk, great food and wonderful interaction by all who come here. Thanks, ladies…and gents, too…mustn’t forget them now that we know they exist! lol…
You are so awesome for compiling all those pictures into the montage images. It must have taken forevers! It was really neat to see what other people took their picture with. Thanks for sharing.
Another dude representing!
I’m the guy in the striped sweater (why is it crooked) and I am THRILLED to be on Joy the Baker’s blog!
Now I’m looking forward to making those brownies with pretzels….thanks Joy!
I’m surprised so many women are “surprised” by all the men that read this blog! My husband loves reading food blogs. This is his favorite one. He’s a great cook and picks up many delicious ideas from the food blogs he reads. He even sends me links asking what I think. Maybe some of you have a secret chef in your household just waiting to be discovered!
that’s pretty precious!
I think the the that surprises me the most about this post is that I actually recognize a few of these people from, like, real life. Crazy. It’s a small internet after all, I guess!
