Fab Freebie: Gone Fishing

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Our two lucky winners as selected by random.org are… Susie (who doesn’t like fish, despite her former employment at Red Lobster) and Sarah (who especially loves Maryland crab, shrimp, salmon, and freshly caught smoked trout). Congrats ladies!

Back when I lived in Brooklyn there was this cool dishware store down the street called Fishs Eddy that I loved. Last Christmas I even bought Sherry two coffee mugs from there. And now, in what can only be called a full circle moment, we’re teaming up with them for a giveaway for you guys. They’ve got tons of fun colorful patterns so we’ve put together three around-$50 prize packages of our favorites: the Food Bank pattern (which benefits the NYC Food Bank), the always-classic 212 New York Skyline pattern, and the playful Charley Harper pattern. So each of our TWO winners will get to pick their favorite collection and take it home.

Fishs Eddy Giveaway

  • PRIZE: One of the following sets of Fishs Eddy dishware: (1) Food Bank set including dishtowel, two mugs, and a set of four sauce dishes, (2) New York Skyline set including salt & pepper shakers, a charger, and a set of four 15oz glasses or (3) Charley Harper set including one fish mug, three fish sauce dishes, and a set of four sunset glasses
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “FISH ME!” and tell us…
  • BONUS QUESTION: …where do you stand on seafood? Have you never met a piece of salmon, fried shrimp, or crabcake you didn’t like? Or do you avoid fish like the plague (perhaps because it tastes “too fishy” or you’re a vegetarian)? Maybe you fall somewhere in the middle and only enjoy specific seafood dishes?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, October 5 at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The 50 United States & Canada (although we do try to wrangle as many international giveaways as possible)
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perked for hosting this giveaway, we just do ‘em to thank you awesome folks for stopping in. See our Giveaway FAQ page for more info. Pics courtesy of Fishs Eddy.

    Never met a piece of seafood that I didn’t like. However, I have never met blue fin tuna and don’t plan on eating it.

    I like fish, but I typically only order when we are at a restaurant. They know what they are doing. Plus my husband doesn’t eat it, and it’s boring to cook for one :)

    Awwwwww, FISH ME! I love that place.

    I grew up in Maryland — I love seafood. (Although the downside is going somewhere random and ordering a crabcake that you KNOW just isn’t going to be as good as ‘back home.’) Because of the overfishing issues these days though (see The End of the Line or Bottomfeeder, we try to buy sustainable species and ones that are wild and line caught.

    FISH ME! I really wish I liked seafood more than I do. I like crab and scallops, but that’s about it. I’m a marine biologist, and people always assume I don’t eat fish because of my profession. But really, I just think it tastes gross!

    Fish me PLEASE! First, I love seafood in every form possible. Secondly, I LOVE Fish’s Eddy. Our plates come from their mismatched dinnerware from old country clubs and restaurants and we bought our glasswear there as well. We are getting married and are seriously considering registering there too. It’s a great store and I’m so sad I no long live in NY to take advantage of it!

    Fish me! I’ve just started eating seafood in the last 5 years or so. I’ve warmed up to white fishes, scallops, lobster, crab. I still can’t do salmon (too oily/fishy) or clams or calamari (too chewy).
