Hello, wonderful readers! How are you doing today? We’re thrilled to have you here. If you’ve stopped by specifically for our exciting giveaway, you’re in the right place! Feel free to scroll down to the bottom of this post to find out how to enter. We promise, there are absolutely no hidden catches – this is our genuine way of saying thank you.
We recently hit an incredible milestone: 20,000 followers on our Facebook page! To celebrate this amazing achievement, and because it’s also (approximately) the four-year anniversary of our blog, we simply had to throw a fantastic party for our community. And what better way to celebrate than with a grand giveaway?
As many of you know, I am completely obsessed with my Vitamix blender. It’s an essential tool in my kitchen, a true game-changer for anyone passionate about healthy eating and delicious homemade recipes. I believe everyone deserves to experience the power and versatility of this incredible machine, which is why I’m giving away the very same model I use daily – the Vitamix Professional Series 750!
This giveaway comes with absolutely no strings attached. You don’t need to follow all (or even any) of our social media accounts or jump through countless hoops. This is purely a heartfelt “thank you” to each and every one of you who has supported this journey. The Vitamix Professional Series 750 isn’t just a blender; it’s an investment in your health and culinary creativity. Its powerful motor effortlessly blends even the toughest ingredients, from fibrous greens for a vibrant green smoothie to creamy nut butters and piping hot soups, all at the touch of a button. The machine features five pre-programmed settings for smoothies, hot soups, frozen desserts, purees, and self-cleaning, making it incredibly user-friendly. Its low-profile 64-ounce container fits easily under most kitchen cabinets, and the variable speed control allows you to achieve a wide range of textures, from chunky salsas to silky-smooth purees. It’s truly a kitchen workhorse that empowers you to explore new recipes and make healthy eating easier and more enjoyable.
To give you a glimpse of how much I adore this powerful little machine and its capabilities, you might recall a video where I demonstrate just how easily it whips up a delicious, nutritious drink. The quality and consistency it delivers are unmatched, making it my go-to for countless recipes.
And speaking of delicious drinks, if you’re curious about the recipe for the refreshing Acai Smoothie featured in that video, you can find it RIGHT HERE. It’s one of my favorites, packed with antioxidants and bursting with flavor, and it perfectly showcases what the Vitamix can do!
Alright, I might have stretched the truth a tiny bit about “no strings attached.” There is just one small question we’d love for you to answer to enter the giveaway (you can do so below, or HERE on Facebook). We are absolutely dying to know: What is your all-time favorite ice cream flavor? Recently, I indulged in some sea salt caramel ice cream, and let me tell you, it was absolutely spectacular! Your answers inspire us, and we love getting to know your tastes!
Reflecting on Four Incredible Years: The Journey of a Food Blog
Looking back, the inception of this blog feels like a lifetime ago, yet the passion behind it remains as strong as ever. I initially started my blog as a simple side project, a much-needed escape from the monotony of a rather uninspiring desk job I held at the time. I desperately craved a creative outlet, a space where I could channel my energy and develop new skills. Thus, B. Britnell was born. My initial thought was to eventually come up with a more imaginative name than, well, my own name. But as time went on, the name B. Britnell truly grew on me, becoming synonymous with the delicious, approachable, and heartfelt recipes shared here.
The early days were a steep learning curve. I spent countless hours grappling with my camera, attempting to master the art of food photography, often resulting in frustrating shoots with less-than-perfect outcomes. It was a journey of trial and error, of persistence and passion, fueled by a genuine love for food and a desire to share it. Despite the challenges, each recipe, each photograph, and each blog post brought me closer to understanding my craft and connecting with an emerging community of fellow food enthusiasts.
Fast forward three transformative years, and I found myself making one of the biggest decisions of my life: I quit that boring desk job. The little side project that began out of necessity had blossomed into a full-fledged career. This blog, along with my burgeoning food videography business, became my full-time endeavor. It was a leap of faith, a terrifying yet exhilarating plunge into the unknown, but one I have never regretted.
Every single day, I still ask myself, “How is this my life?!” The sheer joy and fulfillment I derive from my work are immeasurable. I genuinely love every aspect of what I do – from developing new recipes and styling food to capturing it through photography and videography, and most importantly, connecting with all of you. It’s a dream come true, a testament to the power of pursuing your passions, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.
